Shortly after releasing an introductory trailer dedicated to the Executor from Elden Ring Nightreign, FromSoftware has also released a gameplay trailer that highlights the skills of this character.

Here's What We Know

The developers reminded that this hero will appeal to those who like to parry attacks of enemies, as well as fans of another game of the Japanese studio - Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, where this mechanic was fundamental.

Executor is clad in heavy armour and armed with a large katana, but can use other weapons as well. His fighting style refers to samurai techniques, and his movements are precise, fast and deadly.

The Executioner's main feature is his ability to transform into a huge, ferocious monster. In this guise, he delivers swinging blows and can defeat almost any enemy. In addition, this nuance favourably distinguishes him from the seven other heroes of Elden Ring Nightreign.

As a reminder, in Elden Ring Nightreign there will be no opportunity to create your own character, instead players will be offered eight pre-made heroes with unique abilities and a set of weapons at the start. The game can be played either alone or in threes.

When We Can Expect It

Elden Ring Nightreign will release on 30 May on PC, PlayStation and Xbox.
