The Axe-Swinging Raider

As Elden Ring Nightreign gears up for its release, FromSoftware has been steadily introducing the diverse cast of characters players can control. On April 15, through a captivating Twitter (X) post, they introduced Raider, an aging Viking who swings his axe with ferocity against any adversary.

The trailer showcases Raider's prowess in battle, delivering heavy blows to enemies, including a stunning feat where he uppercuts a dragon with a single strike. Beyond his combat skills, Raider can summon a massive monolith, creating a strategic platform that not only elevates him and his allies out of harm's way but also provides a vantage point for long-range attacks. This tactical advantage can be crucial in turning the tide of battle.

While the trailer does not delve into the specifics of Raider's attacks and abilities, it's clear he's a force to be reckoned with. Fans eager to experience Nightreign can now pre-order the game and receive an exclusive in-game gesture as a bonus.
