Elden Ring: Fell Omen Returns in Morgott Invasion

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, makes a surprise return, appearing as an upgraded Fell Omen, ready to jump-scare players throughout the campaign. His phantom appearances, a hallmark of his original design, are faithfully recreated, adding a thrilling element of unpredictability.

But Morgott isn't just a random invader. His inclusion is perfectly thematic, mirroring his surprise attacks in the original game. He even boasts new voice lines and moves, making encounters with him a challenging and engaging experience, especially in co-op. Beyond surprise invasions, Morgott can also appear as a challenging end-of-night boss, providing a climactic showdown as the sun sets in Nightreign.

Early testers, including the legendary "Let Me Solo Her," have already faced off against the Fell Omen, and the consensus is clear: Morgott is a relentless adversary. Players on the Elden Ring Nightreign subreddit have praised his invasion mechanic, sharing tales of unexpected encounters in elevators, towers, and other locations. The unpredictability adds a significant layer of excitement and tension.

The success of Morgott's invasions has sparked excitement for the potential inclusion of other iconic bosses. The Pursuer from Dark Souls 2 is a popular suggestion, while others have voiced their desire for Bloodborne Hunters to make an appearance. The possibilities are endless.

The Fell Omen's invasions may also feature deeper mechanics. GamesRadar reported an invasion that resulted in a player's death and the apparent application of a curse mark, hinting at more complex systems yet to be discovered. The potential for intricate and rewarding gameplay is high.

Despite server issues during the initial network test, many players experienced the thrill of Nightreign's unique gameplay. The full release on May 30th is highly anticipated. Until then, be sure to check out our hands-on impressions of Elden Ring Nightreign.
