Add to Watchlist

You can unlock the new DLC Characters in Elden Ring Nightreign: The Forsaken Hollows by beating the first boss. See how to unlock the new DLC characters, Scholar and Undertaker, here.

How to Unlock New DLC Characters

Steps to Unlock DLC Characters



Defeat Tricephalos

Tricephalos

After purchasing the DLC, players must beat Tricephalos (Gladius, Beast of Night), the game's first boss to unlock the DLC characters. This can be done using any of the original 8 characters. You don't have to beat it again if you already defeated it before.

Talk to the Iron Menial

Iron Menial Unlock DLC Characters

After defeating Tricephalos and returning to the Roundtable Hold, you must then talk to the Iron Menial, who relays a message from the small jar merchant of the Small Jar Bazaar asking to talk. If he doesn't appear here, you can try going ahead to the Small Jar Bazaar.

Head to the Small Jar Bazaar

Small Jar Bazaar Official Art

Head over to the Small Jar Bazaar and talk to the small jar merchant. You will get a message saying "Indicates the door, perhaps concerned." You then need to interact with the door near him. This will trigger a boss fight with the Dreglord, with the Undertaker and Scholar already fighting it.

You do not need to defeat him to unlock the DLC characters. Getting defeated will trigger a cutscene.

Talk to the Characters

Talk to Undertaker and Scholar to Unlock

After the cutscene plays, return to the door to find the Scholar and the Undertaker inside the now open room. Talk to both the Scholar and Undertaker to unlock them as playable characters.
