The Fell Omen bosses from Elden Ring have become iconic, and it's thrilling to see FromSoftware bring them back in Elden Ring Nightreign, unleashing them across the Lands Between. Morgott, a notorious boss from the original game, continues to haunt players in Nightreign. His phantom versions, known for their surprise attacks in Elden Ring, have evolved into an even more formidable presence in Nightreign, where an unnamed Fell Omen—essentially an enhanced version of Morgott—can suddenly invade players.
Morgott isn't the only boss capable of invading your party as you navigate Nightreign, but he's particularly well-suited for this role. His unexpected appearances align perfectly with his behavior in Elden Ring, and in Nightreign, he's equipped with new voice lines and additional moves to challenge players. It's only fair that if you can bring friends into the fight, Morgott gets some new tricks up his sleeve!
Beyond invasions, the Fell Omen can also appear as a climactic end-of-night boss, providing a thrilling conclusion to your adventures as the sun sets in the Elden Ring Nightreign test.

During the recent Elden Ring Nightreign sessions, many early testers, including the renowned player Let Me Solo Her, faced off against the Fell Omen. The general feedback? Morgott, also known as Margit or the Fell Omen, remains a formidable and beloved adversary. On the Elden Ring Nightreign subreddit, players have praised Morgott's invasion mechanic as a highlight, sharing stories of encounters in various settings, from elevators to towers, showcasing the unpredictable nature of these invasions.
The sudden appearances of the Fell Omen have sparked excitement about the potential for other enemies to invade unexpectedly. The Pursuer from Dark Souls 2, for instance, is mentioned as a potential candidate. Personally, the idea of Hunters from Bloodborne invading and challenging players is intriguing, though it seems like a long shot.

There may be even more to the Fell Omen's invasions than meets the eye. GamesRadar reported an instance where the Omen not only defeated a co-op partner but also left a curse mark on the fallen player, hinting at deeper mechanics that could be explored further.
Despite server issues during the first network test, a significant number of players still managed to dive into the Lands Between over the weekend. As we await the full release of Nightreign on May 30, anticipation continues to build. In the meantime, be sure to check out our hands-on impressions of Elden Ring Nightreign for more insights.
