Elden Ring Nightreign has introduced its sixth character, Raider, an axe-swinging Viking whose prowess promises to captivate fans eagerly awaiting FromSoftware's latest multiplayer survival game. As the release date approaches, excitement builds with each character reveal, and Raider's unveiling on April 15 via a Twitter (X) post has only heightened the anticipation.

The Axe-Swinging Raider

Raider is depicted as an aging Viking, ready to take on any challenge with his axe. The character trailer showcases his ability to deliver devastating heavy attacks, notably taking down a dragon with a single, mighty blow. His combat style isn't just about brute force; Raider also demonstrates strategic capabilities by summoning a large monolith block. This not only serves as a platform for him and his allies but also provides a tactical advantage, elevating long-range characters out of reach of their enemies and allowing Raider to launch aerial assaults.

While the trailer does not delve into the specifics of his attacks and abilities, it's clear that Raider is a formidable addition to the Elden Ring Nightreign roster. Fans looking to dive deeper into the game can pre-order Nightreign now and receive an exclusive in-game gesture as a bonus.
