Elden Ring Nightreign's Libra boss reveal has sparked an amusing discussion among fans, who have noticed a striking resemblance to Ben 10's Grey Matter. Dive into the details of this comparison and discover the formidable nature of the goat-like Nightlord, Libra.
As Elden Ring Nightreign approaches its eagerly awaited release, FromSoftware has given fans a tantalizing glimpse of one of its bosses, Libra, the "Creature of Night." Unveiled on May 6 by IGN, this gameplay footage showcases one of the 8 Nightlords and has sparked a flurry of reactions due to Libra's intriguing design.
True to FromSoftware's tradition, Libra promises a challenging encounter with swift, devastating attacks. Yet, beyond its formidable combat abilities, fans couldn't help but notice Libra's appearance, which has drawn humorous comparisons to Grey Matter from the popular animated series, Ben 10. The resemblance stems from what appears to be massive eyes but are actually bells hanging from Libra's horns.
This amusing observation was echoed across platforms, with YouTube comments and Reddit discussions during the game's reveal trailer in December 2024 highlighting the similarity. Despite the light-hearted comparisons, Libra is poised to pose a serious threat to players upon the game's launch.
The gameplay footage revealed Libra's ability to induce madness in players, inflicting the Madness Status Effect that drains health and focus points while also causing stuns. The video underscores the importance of team coordination against Libra's wide-ranging area-of-effect attacks and unique combat patterns.
Before facing Libra, players can engage with the Scale-bearing Merchant, who offers boosts in strength, resistance to ailments, or a chance to hold death at bay. Choosing to make a deal or not, players then confront the true form of Libra, who sheds its disguise as the Scale-bearing Merchant.
As the battle unfolds, Libra's attacks become increasingly lethal, transitioning from ranged spellcasting and summoning AoE sigils to intense melee assaults. As players chip away at Libra's health, he enters a berserk state, amplifying the damage of his attacks and enhancing his madness-inducing spells.
With less than a month until its release, FromSoftware continues to unveil more about Elden Ring Nightreign, promising a unique multiplayer experience in the Souls genre. The recent overview trailer provided a deep dive into the game's lore, mechanics, and features.
Elden Ring Nightreign is scheduled for release on May 30, 2025, on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Stay tuned for more updates by checking out our dedicated article below!
