Latest Elden Ring Nightreign Update Introduces 'Everdark Sovereign' Enemies - Brace Yourself for More Challenges Ahead!
FromSoftware ups the ante in Elden Ring Nightreign
Fast-forward two weeks after the patch for Elden Ring Nightreign, FromSoftware has delivered a surprise update - the "Everdark Sovereigns." These aren't your average Nightlord battles. They're tougher, more challenging, and sport new moves that'll test your skills to the max. Let's dive into the details!
Originally teased as coming this month, Everdark Sovereign battles were implemented in a stealth update, with the first fight being an increased difficulty version of the "Gaping Jaw" Adel, Baron of Night. Also up for grabs are tougher versions of "Sentient Pest" Gnoster, Wisdom of Night, and "Darkdrift Knight" Fulghor, Champion of Nightglow.
FromSoftware plans to release tougher versions of every other Nightlord fight, excluding the final boss, at a later date. Notably, Everdark Sovereign battles revolve around a weekly rotation schedule, ensuring a fresh challenge every week.
Compared to regular Nightlord battles, Everdark Sovereign fights are a whole new ball game. For instance, the present Adel, Baron of Night Everdark Sovereign kicks off the fight in Phase 2, and later introduces a Phase 3 with chaotic teleporting moves and an electric storm you must navigate with Spiritsprings in the arena.
To take on Everdark Sovereigns, you'll need to hop online. Sadly, this means no Everdark Sovereigns for solo offline players. If you're successful in conquering an Everdark Sovereign, you'll earn a special currency called Sovereign Sigils that can be traded for rare Relic upgrades and other unlocks.
While some players might argue that Everdark Sovereigns don't differ significantly from their normal counterparts, it's still exciting to see Elden Ring Nightreign getting new content so soon after launch. Here's hoping for even tougher Nightlord battles in the future!
As we look forward, the future of Nightreign and potential updates remain intriguing. We know a full DLC is in the pipeline, featuring new character classes and bosses. However, expect smaller iterative releases similar to this one as well. Perhaps other Nightlord variants with unique twists will grace us, or maybe additional Shifting Earth modifiers for the Limveld map itself.
Elden Ring Nightreign is a thrilling experiment that successfully merges Soulsborne combat with a roguelike, co-op twist, despite its limitations like a single map and underwhelming enemy variety. So, grab your copy of Elden Ring Nightreign, priced at just $35.99 at CDKeys, and prepare for some intense battles!
