When I started Elden Ring Nightreign, I was going into it for the gameplay, not the story, but I now need to know more about these mysterious giants that FromSoftware has left almost entirely unexplained, despite them being the Souls series' biggest-ever creatures by a massive margin.
Although FromSoftware arguably takes a more direct approach to Nightreign's storytelling and narrative with its Remembrance quests and Journal entries, there are still a lot of things left up to interpretation. One of those things is what the hell those giant shadows – which, throughout the course of your expeditions, manifest into clearer humanoid figures – actually are.
