The Axe-Swinging Raider

As Elden Ring Nightreign gears up for its much-anticipated release, FromSoftware has been steadily unveiling the diverse roster of characters that players will be able to control. On April 15, the developer took to Twitter (X) to showcase their latest addition, Raider—an aging Viking who brandishes an axe with formidable prowess.

The trailer for Raider showcases his ability to deliver devastating heavy attacks, capable of confronting even a dragon with a single, powerful strike. Additionally, Raider possesses the unique ability to summon a towering monolith, which serves as a strategic platform for both himself and his allies. This feature not only provides a vantage point for long-range characters, making it challenging for enemies to reach them, but also allows Raider to launch surprise aerial attacks on his foes.

While the trailer doesn't delve into the specifics of his attacks and abilities, it's clear that Raider brings a robust and tactical edge to the game. Fans eager to experience Nightreign can now pre-order the game to unlock an exclusive in-game gesture.
