How to Unlock the Revenant in Elden Ring Nightreign

fragster James Steward 30. May 2025

Elden Ring Nightreign introduces a new layer of cooperative play set within the expansive landscape of Limveld. Players can choose from eight distinct heroes, each offering unique abilities designed to complement team-based strategies.

Among these characters, Revenant stands out as a necromancer whose abilities focus on summoning spectral allies and casting potent support spells. Gaining access to this hero requires meeting specific in-game challenges, but once unlocked, Revenant’s specialization in defensive and support magic can greatly enhance a party’s effectiveness in demanding battles.

Releasing the Revenant Character

Unlocking the Revenant requires players to follow a precise sequence of objectives in Elden Ring Nightreign. Begin the process by challenging and defeating a Nightlord at the Tricephalos Expedition. Victorious players earn Murk, an important currency for securing special items and advancing through class unlocks.

After obtaining at least 1,500 Murk, visit the Small Jar Bazaar located within the Roundtable Hold. The Besmirched Frame, necessary for further steps, can be purchased here. There may be a prerequisite: the Duchess class must sometimes be unlocked before the item becomes available, so be sure to meet this requirement if it doesn’t appear in the bazaar’s inventory.

Once equipped with the Besmirched Frame, proceed to the eastern section of the Roundtable Hold. Locate the spectral figure—a doll-like apparition standing in front of a large painting. Interacting with this ghostly presence will transport players to Limveld, the stage for the next critical battle.

In Limveld, prepare to face the formidable Night Idol, who is the present form of the Revenant. This confrontation is particularly challenging due to being limited to level six and possessing just three Health Flasks. The Night Idol is supported by five spirit allies, requiring players to carefully plan their attack and defense. The opportunity for multiple attempts helps reduce frustration and allows for the gradual development of a winning strategy.

Upon overcoming the Night Idol, the Revenant class immediately becomes available for selection on the team menu. Selecting the Revenant offers a distinctive style focused on teamwork—her supportive magic can bolster allies without forcing her onto the frontlines.

Advantages of the Revenant’s Role:

  • Strengthens team resilience with shield spells
  • Summons support units in tough scenarios
  • Suits players preferring tactical support over direct combat

These steps ensure a systematic and clear path for players aiming to access this class and diversify their strategic options within the game.
