Elden Ring Nightreign has just unveiled its sixth playable character, Raider, an axe-wielding Viking who promises to bring a unique flair to FromSoftware's highly anticipated multiplayer survival game.

As Elden Ring Nightreign edges closer to its release, fans are getting more excited with each character reveal. Raider, the latest addition, is an aging Viking known for his heavy-hitting attacks. The trailer highlights his ability to take down even a dragon with a single, powerful blow. Beyond his brute strength, Raider has the unique ability to summon a large monolith block, which serves as a strategic platform for both himself and his allies. This feature not only provides a height advantage, making it challenging for enemies to reach long-range characters, but also allows Raider to launch surprise attacks from above.

While the trailer does not delve into the specifics of Raider's attacks and abilities, it certainly piques the interest of potential players. For those eager to get their hands on Elden Ring Nightreign, pre-orders are now available, offering an exclusive in-game gesture as a bonus.
