Elden Ring Nightreign Libra Boss Reveal Gameplay

It’s Hero Time?

As Elden Ring Nightreign approaches its release date, FromSoftware has treated fans to a glimpse of one of its bosses, Libra, who bears a striking resemblance to a well-known cartoon character. On May 6, IGN released new gameplay footage showcasing "Libra, Creature of Night," one of the 8 Nightlords.

True to FromSoftware's reputation, Libra promises to be a challenging encounter with its swift and devastating attacks. Yet, it's not just Libra's combat abilities that have caught the eye of the community. The boss's appearance has led to some amusing comparisons.

Comments on YouTube have highlighted Libra's uncanny similarity to Grey Matter from the popular cartoon series Ben 10. This resemblance stems from Libra's apparent large eyes, which are actually bells hanging from his horns—a detail that adds a humorous twist to the boss's design. This comparison was also a topic of discussion on Reddit during the game’s reveal trailer in December 2024, where Libra made a brief appearance. Despite the light-hearted comparisons, Libra is poised to be a formidable foe when Elden Ring Nightreign launches.

Madness!

The gameplay footage reveals that Libra is a madness-inducing boss, capable of inflicting the Madness Status Effect on players. This effect leads to the loss of health and focus points, as well as stunning the player. The footage emphasizes the necessity of team coordination to counter Libra's large area-of-effect attacks and unique combat patterns.

Before engaging Libra, players can interact with the Scale-bearing Merchant, who offers them a choice: gain great strength, resistance to ailments, or hold death at bay. Players can also choose to bypass this deal and confront Libra directly. The video leaves it unclear whether this deal comes with any drawbacks or costs. Upon making or refusing the deal, the Scale-bearing Merchant transforms into Libra, shedding its skin to reveal its true form.

As the battle unfolds, Libra's threat level escalates. Initially, he attacks with spells and area-of-effect sigils. Once sufficiently damaged, Libra enters a berserk state, unleashing powerful melee attacks and enhancing his madness-based spells, making his area-of-effect attacks even more deadly.

With the release of Elden Ring Nightreign just around the corner, FromSoftware is set to unveil more about the game, promising a unique multiplayer experience that will redefine the Souls genre. Recently, they released an overview trailer that delves into the game's lore, gameplay mechanics, features, and more.

Elden Ring Nightreign is scheduled for release on May 30, 2025, on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Stay tuned for more updates and insights into this highly anticipated title.
