Summary
Elden Ring Nightreignwasone of the best announcements at The Game Awardsthis month, which only got better once we sawour favorite Nameless King flying around on a dragon. In the days following the announcement, it was confirmed that Elden Ring Nightreign will include various enemies from theDark Soulsseries, and it appears as though that includes some bosses.
Given that we only saw a fraction of the enemies we’ll likely face on our unique little jaunt across Limgrave, we can assume that there may be even more bosses from Dark Souls past waiting in the wings. That has led many fans of the series to cross their fingers and hope their favorite Dark Souls boss is included, which is a topic thatwas recently discussed on the Elden Ring subreddit.
Elden Ring Nightreign Fans Want The Ivory King And Fume Knight To Return
In a post earlier this month, a user called DJ_Caan asked fellow Elden Ring fans which bosses they’d like to see return, and the comments were unsurprisingly quite varied. What is surprising is the amount of love forDark Souls 2, as quite a few bosses from the black sheep of the Souls series are mentioned as potential candidates.
For example, a user called Weak_Big_1709 wants to see a revitalized Ivory King, along with a congregation of Loyce Knights, all in their prime and ready to throw down. In a similar vein, another user called Lingjoshua18 would like to see either Sir Alonne or the Fume Knight return in some capacity, claiming Elden Ring Nightreign is a great opportunity to “give DS2’s best DLC bosses a chance to shine again.”
Another very popular choice is Sister Friede fromDark Souls 3, while Ornstein and Smough from the first Dark Souls also get a couple of nodes here and there. Of course, there are also someBloodbornefans in the replies after my own heart, hoping for the return of either Orphan of Kos or Lady Maria,the latter of which people think is actually in the trailer.
There’s definitely plenty of room for FromSoftware to experiment, thanks to years of cranking out bangers, and the fact that The Nameless King is confirmed to be in the game makes pretty much any prediction at least feasible. What we can guarantee is that the return of any boss will mean we’ll be spread across the floor all over again. At least we’ll be pummeled alongside some good friends this time.
