Sure thing, let’s dive in.

So get this, FromSoftware just pulled a fast one on us, and I’m honestly kind of loving it. You know the buzz about Elden Ring Nightreign? It seemed like everyone was on board with the new game. They promised us this super official duos mode—not here yet, but they did drop something juicy on us: “enhanced fights against existing Nightlords.” Honestly, that could mean anything, right? Well, now we know exactly what they meant. The first of these so-called enhanced fights just popped up, all stealthy like no big deal.
I was just done reporting on the latest Nightreign patch—nothing more than a squeaky clean little update, I thought. But then, bam! New boss fight news broke, minus any grandiose announcement. Anyone else find that hilarious? Like, the real news decides to stroll in fashionably late. Anyway—wait, where was I going with this?
Oh! Right. These super bosses are now called Everdark Sovereigns—a name that’s dripping with drama, I know. FromSoft explained, in their low-key way, they’re just nightmare versions of each Nightlord. Impossible, right? New one every week, but there’s a catch—only the champions who’ve conquered the original Nightlord can step up. This week, it’s a creature called Sovereign of Gaping Jaws (Adel). Next week, some funky name like Sentient Pest, and after that, hello Darkdrift Knight. Who comes up with these names?
But wait, there’s more: they’re working on other Sovereigns—like Tricephalos and some others with equally wild names—and they’ll just pop up whenever. Adel’s time in the limelight ends on Thursday, June 25. Seriously, mark your calendars. Or don’t. I’m not your mom.
And guess what else? There’s this new NPC, busy and mysterious, who’s doling out rewards. You beat a Sovereign, you get a Sovereign Sigil. Trade them for rare items. Not to mention, you get extra Sigils your first time beating each boss. Kind of like first-time customer bonuses. Plus, this NPC’s your go-to for changing Nightreign’s Shifting Earth or Map Events. Handy, right? Because grinding through three Nightlords for a change was such a chore.
There’s probably more to uncover as folks dive in—like peeling layers off an onion. Not everyone’s sliced through all of Nightreign’s Nightlords yet, and we’ve got a handy weaknesses guide for when you need that edge. Kind of essential, honestly.
Still with me? Good. For anything else, just skim through the Elden Ring Nightreign guide. Seriously, it’s like your GPS through this wild ride.

Honestly, never thought I’d be so sucked into writing this. Hope it made sense!
