Elden Ring features a hardcore knight who can spawn a tail and two wings for himself to surprise you in every single attack, and he is called Crucible Knight!

We are only over a month away from Elden Ring, but as we get closer to the release date the anticipation for the next big experience from the creator of Dark Souls becomes harder and harder.

This is going to be the very first title from Hidetaka Miyazaki that brings the Dark Souls formula to a large-scale world, where you can ride on horses and experience mounted battles.

Who Is Crucible Knight in Elden Ring?

Recently, some gameplay footage has been leaked from Elden Ring, showing off an enemy on the high mountains who is a highly armored knight but can surprisingly spawn wings for himself to fly in the air.

As the footage reveals, the player heavily attacks the knight at first, and while we expect him to vanish, he rises up and fights with some special abilities. At first, the knight spawns two wings and flies toward the player. Then he manages to damage the player by spawning a tale and sudden attack.

With all his strange abilities, Crucible Knight seems like a great swordsman, but the player eventually manages to deflect one of his attackers and counter back and finish the knight.

Obviously, Crucible Knight doesn’t seem to be a boss fight. However, he seems to be one of the top-tier enemies that you could probably encounter in your dangerous explorations in Elden Ring.

Elden Ring will be available on February 28 for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and PC.
