Elden Ring Nightreign Raider is an Axe-Swinging, Ale Drinking, Dragon Uppercutting Playable Character

Elden Ring Nightreign has unveiled its sixth character, Raider, an axe-wielding Viking who adds a thrilling dimension to FromSoftware's upcoming multiplayer survival game. With the game's release date on the horizon, excitement continues to build as more characters are revealed.

The Axe-Swinging Raider

On April 15, FromSoftware took to Twitter (X) to showcase their latest character trailer for Raider. This aging Viking is not just about brute strength; he's a formidable force, capable of delivering heavy blows to his adversaries. In the trailer, Raider impressively takes on a dragon with a single, powerful strike, showcasing his prowess in combat.

Raider's abilities extend beyond his axe-swinging skills. He can summon a massive monolith that serves as a strategic platform for both himself and his allies. This feature is particularly advantageous for long-range characters, as it elevates them out of reach from ground-based enemies, allowing them to rain down attacks from above. Additionally, it provides Raider with a unique vantage point to launch his own aerial assaults.

While the trailer does not delve into specific details about Raider's full range of attacks and abilities, it's clear that he will be a versatile and impactful addition to any team in Elden Ring Nightreign.

Players eager to experience Raider's might can pre-order Nightreign now to receive a bonus in-game gesture. For those interested in learning more about the game's pre-order options and downloadable content (DLCs), be sure to check out our detailed article below!
