"Elden Ring Testers Unveil Morgott's Jump-Scare Return"

Author:Kristen Update:May 02,2025

The Fell Omen bosses from Elden Ring have become legendary in the gaming community, and it's exciting to see them make a dramatic return in Elden Ring Nightreign. One of these iconic bosses, Morgott, known for his unexpected appearances in the original game, continues to surprise players in Nightreign as an enhanced version of himself, now dubbed the unnamed Fell Omen. This boss can ambush players at any moment, adding a thrilling layer of unpredictability to the gameplay.

Morgott isn't the only boss capable of invading your team in Nightreign; however, his presence feels particularly apt. Not only does it echo his surprise attacks from Elden Ring, but he also comes equipped with new voice lines and additional moves, making each encounter fresh and challenging. With the option to team up with two friends, it's only fair that Morgott gets some new tricks up his sleeve.

Beyond his invasive nature, the Fell Omen can also serve as an end-of-night boss, offering players a climactic battle as the day concludes in the Elden Ring Nightreign test.

Early testers, including the renowned player Let Me Solo Her, have faced off against the Fell Omen during the weekend's Elden Ring Nightreign sessions. The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, with many praising Morgott/Margit/Fell Omen as a formidable and entertaining adversary. On the Elden Ring Nightreign subreddit, players have expressed their love for Morgott's invasion mechanic, sharing stories of encounters in various settings, from elevators to towers, highlighting the humorous and unexpected nature of these invasions.

The excitement surrounding the Fell Omen's surprise attacks has sparked discussions about other potential invaders from FromSoftware's catalog. Fans have suggested characters like the Pursuer from Dark Souls 2, and while it may be a long shot, some dream of seeing Hunters from Bloodborne make an appearance.

There's also a hint of deeper mechanics tied to the Fell Omen's invasions. Reports from GamesRadar indicate that the Omen can leave a curse mark on defeated players, suggesting a more complex gameplay element that could be explored further.

Despite some server issues during the first network test, a significant number of players managed to dive into the Lands Between over the weekend. As we await the full release of Elden Ring Nightreign on May 30, anticipation continues to build. For more insights, be sure to check out our hands-on impressions of Elden Ring Nightreign.
