Elden Ring Nightreign Lets You Cosplay As Everyone’s Favorite Dark Souls Character

by

The much-anticipated release month of Elden Ring Nightreign is now upon us, and Bandai Namco has given fans a closer glimpse into the game through a fresh overview trailer. In this latest sneak peek, we get another chance to study the game’s eight Nightarers (classes), as well as some insights into the gameplay mechanics and storyline. However, it’s worth noting that a subtle aspect might be easily missed if your eyes wandered from the video for a brief moment. The recently disclosed character customization features in Elden Ring Nightreign now offer cosmetic options that allow players to dress up their characters, with some intriguing choices that may seem oddly familiar.

The brief introductory trailer unveiled that within the game, a currency named Murk will be introduced, which players can acquire during their missions. This currency can then be utilized in the shop for purchasing a variety of in-game items, enabling players to modify their characters’ appearances. A range of costumes will be available for each class, offering players the opportunity to experiment with different classes that align with their unique style. For enthusiasts of Dark Souls, some costumes offer an additional thrill as they are inspired by beloved characters from the series. Additionally, certain costumes can be unlocked, allowing players to dress up their Nightfarer character in likeness of iconic Dark Souls figures.

In this brief preview, we can’t gather much information, but it seems that gamers will have the opportunity to customize their character, Nightfarer, to resemble the renowned boss from Dark Souls, Solaire. This versatile character, who can either be an adversary or ally based on your gameplay, is depicted in the trailer, indicating that players might acquire his attire through cosmetic purchases using Murk. However, it’s unclear if the costume will be exclusive to melee classes or accessible for all Nightfarers.

Dark Souls Characters Feature in Elden Ring Nightreign In More Ways than We Knew

It’s been understood that players would engage in combat against specific Dark Souls bosses. However, an exciting new feature seems to be on the horizon – the ability to dress up as famous characters from Dark Souls! Besides Solaire, other recognizable faces such as Faraam, the God of War, and Leonhard, a character from Dark Souls 3, have been hinted at as potential cosmetic choices. Whether these are the only costumes available or if more are yet to be unveiled at launch or with future updates remains to be seen…

These cosmetic items for characters will be associated with the bosses from Dark Souls that players will encounter during their journey in Elden Ring: Nightreign. In the initial reveal, we’ve seen The Nameless King and The Duke’s Dear Freja from Dark Souls 2. Rumors hint at the inclusion of the Gaping Dragon as well, suggesting that there might be several bosses from Dark Souls hidden for players to encounter in Nightreign.

By incorporating these cosmetics, it’s evident that the spin-off title, Elden Ring: Nightreign, will maintain a strong resemblance to the Dark Souls series, much like its parent game Elden Ring. Players will soon have the opportunity to witness the extent of the Dark Souls elements within the game when Elden Ring: Nightreign launches later this month on May 30th. The title is set to be released on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC simultaneously at launch.
