Elden Ring Nightreign’s New Everdark Boss is Further Proof That All Nightfarers Aren’t Equal

In Elden Ring: Nightreign, it’s primarily designed for teams of three players, but during specific challenges, having a particular character like Nightfarer (Gnoster, Wisdom of Night) on your team can be quite advantageous, especially when battling unique bosses such as the special boss fight against Ironeye. This is because having Ironeye on your side significantly boosts your chances of success in this encounter.

The question at hand involves a challenging boss battle from FromSoft, specifically Nightreign’s upgraded Everdark Sovereign version of the Sentient Pest. This unique adversary comprises three separate bosses combined into one. In its base form, you engage in combat with two enormous insects. The upgraded edition introduces a massive red moth that appears when you defeat one of the other two and takes control over it, reanimating the creature in an empowered state.

Wuchang: Fallen Feathers Has the Potential to Be the Next Big Soulslike

Studios aiming to establish a unique identity within the Soulslike genre are embracing and revitalizing FromSoft’s three key design principles: world creation, storytelling, and combat mechanics. For instance, Lies of P introduced an original “Lie” system for narrative influence and Legion Arm combat customization. Last year’s hit game Black Myth: Wukong aimed to be cutting-edge within the sub-genre, with its creators touting it as something novel – possibly even “Black Myth”-esque – to differentiate their creation from FromSoftware’s previous titles.
