Elden Ring Shadow of The Erdtree: Who Is Messmer The Impaler?

Elden Ring, the action role-playing game developed by FromSoftware and published by Bandai Namco, set records for sales and gameplay, was it was the 2022 Game of the Year.

Now, FromSoftware has delivered a spectacular trailer, the main character in the trailer is Messmer The Impaler, but who exactly is this creature?

Here’s what we know.

Elden Ring Shadow of The Erdtree: Who Is Messmer The Impaler?

Elden Ring has been widely acclaimed and is widely considered one of the best games of 2022. Its exceptional performance is evident in the numerous Game of the Year awards it has won.

FromSoftware has now confirmed via the first trailer for Shadow of The Erdtree, that it’ll release on June 21st, 2024, and Messmer The Impaler from what we can tell, is going to be the final boss.

Lore experts have already come up with some theories into who Messmer is, and from what we can tell he is the third son of Queen Marika, along with being the brother of Miquella and Malenia.

This is more or less indicated by his desire to hunt down Miquella throughout the DLC, but we aren’t really sure if this is going to be pan out to be true or not. However, we’re anticipating that Shadow of The Erdtree is going to unwrap all of this story content when it releases.
