When Elden Ring Nightreign was revealed, the thing that drew the most attention was that it contained bosses from the Dark Souls series. The trailer showed the Nameless King, a very important boss from Dark Souls 3, riding around on his dragon while smiting hapless Tarnished warriors with lightning bolts.
This immediately set tongues wagging, and fans everywhere started coming up with theories as to why characters from Dark Souls were appearing in an Elden Ring game. You see, while Dark Souls and Elden Ring share many similarities and are both developed by FromSoftware, the creator has always been quick to point out they're set in different universes.
