Players speculate that the hunched, golden-dress-wearing ****** may be one of Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree’s new bosses. Some have gone as far as to guess that the creature may be related to Godwyn the Golden, as they share a similar scar on their back. The ****** also features the same, twisted Omen horns as Mohg and Morgott, Godwyn’s brothers.

It’s hard to guess exactly how the mysterious ****** fits into Elden Ring lore without playing Shadow of the Erdtree for ourselves, but some theories do have us scratching our heads. There have also, of course, been plenty of fans pointing out that the image FromSoftware shared looks undeniably like a *******.

Secobd phase of this ******?
