Elden Ring Nightreign throws you into the lands of Limveld in a spectacular rendition of a roguelike. One of the major aspects of a roguelike is the randomized nature of everything you get. Nightreign takes this philosophy to heart, presenting you with new weapons to find and enemies to beat in each run.

More so than all of these, however, the game also frequently keeps you on your toes with random events. Some of these events introduce new bosses, while others drastically alter parts of the map. These events ensure that each run is different from the last, adding to replayability.

Shifting Earth Events

As stated earlier, events in Elden Ring Nightreign serve to keep runs fresh, either by introducing new enemies or by altering the map completely. The latter are called the Shifting Earth events, crucial to keep the gameplay fresh from run to run.

These events include:

The Crater: This changes parts of the map to the volcanic areas. The aesthetic of this altered map resembles the depths of the Volcano Manor from the Elden Ring. The Magma Wyrm is the special boss of this event and one you need to beat to unlock a smithing table.
Rotted Woods: The Rotten Woods turns part of the map into a rot-infested zone. While it is no Lake of Rot, it is a difficult area to navigate.
Mountaintop: The Mountaintop closely resembles the Mountaintop of the Giants and features tons of difficult enemies. If you make it to the top, you can acquire the Favor of the Mountain ability.
Noklateo, the Shrouded City: Resembling Nokron, the Eternal City, Noklateo is a city where the Astel boss resides. Navigate through the city and make it to the end to find and fight Astel. Beating Astel here grants the ability to cheat death once.

Apart from altering the map, Elden Ring Nightreign also throws in new bosses and enemies. These bosses are as follows:

Fell Omen Raid: You get to fight the Fell Omen boss. This is the same version of Margit you fought in the tutorial. Defeating Margit here increases ally attack damage per number of active graces.
Sentient Pest Raid: Defeating the Sentient Pest boss applies a boost to the runes you gain from each enemy, depending on the number of attacks taken to beat the enemy.
Augur Raid: Defeating the Augur Raid alters your flask to heal both HP and FP.
Meteor Crashes: The meteors will harbor the Fallingstar Beast bosses. Head over to the site of the crash to discover a crater. You will have to fight the Falling Beast bosses in these craters. Defeating these will grant Epic loot.
Cataclysm: This event buffs all enemies in certain areas and also makes you vulnerable to NPC invasions. Defeating these invaders will give you stronger variants of the weapons they carry.
Double Bosses: Just when you think you’ve survived the night and can move to the next day, the Double Boss event will spawn a second boss. You need to beat this boss to move to the next day.
Old Gaol: The event turns Evergaols into Old Gaols, switching them up with new bosses.
Walking Mausoleum: This event summons a walking mausoleum on the map. This creature functions exactly as it did in the Elden Ring. Knock the white debris off its legs to bring it down. Try not to get crushed while you do so. Once down, you can then use it to duplicate weapons.
