Elden Ring Nightreign Reveals the Guardian

Bandai Namco and FromSoftware released a new entry in its series of trailers for Elden Ring Nightreign‘s playable classes. The newest video showcases the Guardian, a melee-based defensive class. The video comes ahead of the game’s release later this month for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S on May 30, 2025.

Elden Ring Nightreign is a standalone co-op action title set in the Elden Ring universe. The game sees squads of up to three players attempting to survive in the ever-shifting environment of Limveld. Players begin each session at the Roundtable Hold, where they choose from eight characters with their own distinct abilities, before being sent into Limveld to try and survive the coming Night’s Tide. The map shrinks as Night’s Tide approaches, with players having to end each night by facing off against a powerful boss, culminating in the third night where they battle the chosen Nightlord.
