It’s Hero Time?

As Elden Ring Nightreign nears its eagerly awaited release, FromSoftware unveiled a glimpse of one of its challenging bosses, Libra, known as the "Creature of Night." Released on May 6 by IGN, the new gameplay footage showcases this menacing figure, one of the 8 Nightlords.

True to FromSoftware's reputation, Libra promises a tough battle with its rapid, devastating attacks. Yet, it's not just Libra's combat skills that have caught the community's attention. Fans have pointed out a striking resemblance between Libra and Grey Matter, a character from Ben 10, mainly due to what appeared to be massive eyes on Libra, which were actually bells hanging from his horns.

This humorous observation was widely discussed on platforms like YouTube and Reddit, especially after Libra's brief appearance in the game’s reveal trailer in December 2024. Despite the light-hearted comparisons, Libra is poised to be a formidable adversary when Elden Ring Nightreign launches.

Madness!

The gameplay footage reveals that Libra is not just a visually striking boss but also a madness-inducing one, capable of inflicting the Madness Status Effect on players. This effect causes health and focus point loss and can stun players, emphasizing the need for effective team coordination to counter Libra’s wide-ranging area-of-effect attacks and complex attack patterns.

Before facing Libra, players have the option to negotiate with the Scale-bearing Merchant, who offers boosts in strength, resistance to ailments, or protection against death. Players can choose to accept or decline these offers before confronting Libra, who is revealed to be the merchant in disguise, shedding his skin to unveil his true form.

As the battle intensifies, Libra unleashes a broader range of attacks, from casting projectile spells to summoning area-of-effect sigils. When significantly damaged, Libra enters a berserk state, increasing the potency of his melee attacks and madness-based spells, making him an even more daunting opponent.

With the release of Elden Ring Nightreign just around the corner, FromSoftware continues to tease fans with more details about the game, promising a unique multiplayer experience within the Souls series. The recent overview trailer provided insights into the game's lore, mechanics, and additional features.

Elden Ring Nightreign is scheduled to launch on May 30, 2025, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Stay tuned for more updates on this highly anticipated title by checking out our dedicated article below!
