Elden Ring's infamous Fell Omen bosses have invaded the Lands Between once more, this time in Elden Ring: Nightreign. Morgott, a formidable foe from the main game, returns as a surprise invader, leaping out to challenge players throughout the campaign. His phantom appearances in the original game are replicated here, but with a twist: this unnamed Fell Omen (essentially a powered-up Morgott) delivers jump-scare invasions, adding a thrilling element of unpredictability.

Morgott's inclusion isn't just a random choice; it perfectly aligns with his ambush tactics in the original Elden Ring. He even boasts new voice lines and moves, making these encounters even more challenging, especially when facing him with allies. Beyond surprise invasions, the Fell Omen also acts as a challenging end-of-night boss, a climactic encounter as the sun sets in Nightreign's testing grounds.

Early testers, including the renowned "Let Me Solo Her," have already faced the Fell Omen, and the consensus is clear: Morgott/Margit/Fell Omen is a relentless adversary. Players on the Elden Ring Nightreign subreddit praise Morgott's invasion mechanic, highlighting its unexpected appearances in various locations, from elevators to towers, leading to hilarious and intense moments.

The success of the Fell Omen invasions has sparked excitement for the potential inclusion of other iconic bosses. The Pursuer from Dark Souls 2 is a popular suggestion, and many players dream of facing Bloodborne-inspired Hunter invasions, although this remains a distant possibility.

Intriguingly, there might be deeper mechanics to the Fell Omen invasions. GamesRadar reported an invasion that resulted in a player's death, leaving behind a noticeable curse mark. This hints at potentially complex consequences and adds another layer of depth to the gameplay.

Despite server issues during the initial network test, many players experienced the thrill of Nightreign's combat. The full release on May 30th is highly anticipated. Until then, you can explore our hands-on impressions of Elden Ring Nightreign [ttpp] here.
