One creative Elden Ring fan has made adorable drawings of the game's bosses, depicting them as characters from the popular 2D Metroidvania game Hollow Knight. Elden Ring is one of the most challenging games ever created, as it has some of the most brutal enemies like bears, dragons, giant insects, dogs, and eagles. Besides these regular foes, the FromSoftware title boasts a unique collection of more than 100 bosses scattered across the game world, presenting new challenges to players at every turn.
These Elden Ring bosses have amassed millions of fans, with Malenia - Blade of Miquella, Starscourge Radahn, Godfrey - The First Elden Lord, and Rennala - Queen of The Full Moon grabbing the lion's share. Elden Ring fans often depict these characters in visually appealing art, sometimes recreating iconic scenes from the game. Now, one artist has combined Elden Ring bosses with another popular video game, Hollow Knight.
Reddit user lub270d uploaded an image on the social media platform which shows an interesting artwork of several Elden Ring bosses. The fascinating thing about this Elden Ring art is that it portrays the bosses as characters from Hollow Knight, a famous 2D adventure game. As per the caption, this is the first part of the series where they have drawn Limgrave and Weeping Peninsula bosses in Hollow Knight's style. The picture shows 32 bosses found in the Limgrave and Weeping Peninsula areas of Elden Ring, divided into six rows. The first two rows contain names like the Grafted Scion, Soldier of Godrick, Demi-Human Chiefs, Stonedigger Troll, Patches, Black Knife Assassin, and Mad Pumpkin Head.

The following two rows feature more challenging Elden Ring bosses like Tree Sentinel, Flying Dragon Agheel, Crucible Knight, Bloodhound Knight Darriwil, Margit The Fell Omen, and Godrick the Grafted. Finally, the last two rows contain other names like Ancient Hero of Zamor, Deathbird, Scaly Misbegotten, Cemetery Shade, and Erdtree Avatar. The post was well received by fans, who pointed out the similarities between the bosses and their counterparts in Hollow Knight. For instance, Deathbird and Cemetery Shade look nearly identical to Nosk and The Collector, respectively.
