Get ready for an exciting addition to Elden Ring: Nightreign with the unveiling of the Ironeye, a new ranged class set to enhance the game upon its May release. Dive in to discover more about this sniper class!
Nightreign Reveals 6th Class, Ironeye
A Deadly Ranged Sniper
*Elden Ring: Nightreign* has just introduced the Ironeye, a sniper class that promises to revolutionize ranged gameplay with its focus on speed and precision. The character trailer highlights its unique abilities, showcasing a colossal bow and arrow setup and the agility to scale walls for strategic mid-air strikes. Ironeye also benefits from a new aiming system designed to enhance accuracy, particularly for headshots. The trailer even demonstrates an impressive riposte, piercing an enemy's heart with a single arrow.During the closed network test of Nightreign in February, players got a chance to experience four out of the eight classes: the versatile Wylder, the sturdy Guardian, the agile Duchess, and the spell-casting Recluse. With Ironeye marking the sixth class, anticipation is building for the potential reveal of the final two classes as the release date approaches in May.
The introduction of quality-of-life enhancements, such as the refined aiming system, has sparked hope among fans that these improvements might find their way into the original Elden Ring. This could significantly boost the appeal of using bows, which have historically been less favored than melee weapons in the original game. The Ironeye's showcase of the potential power of ranged combat could encourage more players to explore a sniper build in Nightreign.
Elden Ring: Nightreign, a standalone expansion of the Elden Ring universe, is set to launch on May 30th, 2025, available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S for $39.99. For more details and updates, visit Game8’s comprehensive article below!
