The Fell Omen bosses of Elden Ring have become legendary among players, and it's exciting to see FromSoftware unleashing them in Elden Ring Nightreign, allowing these formidable foes to roam freely across the Lands Between.
Morgott, a notorious boss from the original Elden Ring campaign, has made a thrilling return in Nightreign. Known for his surprise appearances in Elden Ring, Morgott's phantom versions could pop up unexpectedly, and this feature has been cleverly integrated into Nightreign. Here, an enhanced version of Morgott, referred to as an unnamed Fell Omen, can launch surprise invasions on players, adding an element of unpredictability and excitement to the gameplay.
Morgott is not the only boss capable of invading your party in Nightreign, but he is particularly apt for this role. His sudden appearances align perfectly with his behavior in Elden Ring, and he comes equipped with new voice lines and additional moves to challenge players. It's only fitting that if you can team up with friends, Morgott gets some new tricks up his sleeve!
Besides invasions, the Fell Omen can also appear as a formidable end-of-night boss, culminating your journey as the sun sets during the Elden Ring Nightreign test.

During the recent Elden Ring Nightreign testing sessions, early testers, including the renowned player "Let Me Solo Her," faced off against the Fell Omen. The general consensus? Morgott, also known as Margit or the Fell Omen, lives up to his reputation as a formidable adversary.
Players on the Elden Ring Nightreign subreddit have praised Morgott's invasion mechanic as one of their favorite features. Discussions have highlighted various locations where players encountered invasions, ranging from night-time battles to unexpected encounters on elevators or in towers. Morgott's versatility in appearing anywhere adds a layer of thrill and humor to the game.
The success of the Fell Omen's invasions has sparked interest in seeing other iconic enemies make similar surprise attacks. The Pursuer from Dark Souls 2 is one such suggestion that could add an exciting twist. Personally, the idea of Hunters from Bloodborne invading the game, although a long shot, sounds thrilling.

There might be even more depth to the Fell Omen invasions, as GamesRadar reported an instance where the Omen not only defeated a co-op partner but also left a curse mark on the fallen player. This intriguing mechanic could add new dimensions to the gameplay as more players explore Elden Ring Nightreign.
Despite server issues during the initial network test, many players managed to dive into the Lands Between over the weekend. The full impact of Nightreign won't be clear until its release on May 30, but in the meantime, you can check out our hands-on impressions of Elden Ring Nightreign here.
