Some Endigns are tied to individual Nightfarer Remembrance Quests, while others require meeting unique conditions throughout the game. This page covers every ending, their unlock requirements, and the choices needed to experience each conclusion.

AnonymousI couldn't get Wylder's remembrance ending to work? I have defeated every night lord, including 3 sovereigns, at least once.
In my silver tear run, I had the silver tear equipped in a red relic slot. After defeating Heolstar and giving the rune to the roundtable corpse, it just played the normal Groot ending. Chat, what I did wrong?
AnonymousOkay I somehow got the Wylders ending when playing as the recluse and got the earring afterwards. I was matched with one wylder though maybe he had the quest item on?

AnonymousDon't see anyone talking about what's actually happening in the normal ending cutscene, any character you pick up just turn into rays of light and flies off somewhere after offering Nightlord's rune... Do some of them actually get to live after Night is over?

AnonymousWDYM 3 characters get an ending to themselves but not the rest?

AnonymousEnding Requirements:
Complete 4 expeditions
Successfuly defeat all Night Lords
You don't need to defeat all night lords to have basic ending. just 4 different bosses, to unlock Nightlord
Anonymousadd a go into side room as a ending requirement, inconsistent with the ironeye one which does have that as an additional step

Anonymous
Anonymous"complete 4 expidition quests", does that mean just 4 successful runs?
If so do they have to be 4 seperate nightlords? If not what does it mean.
AnonymousCan't Belive John Nightrein Tamed Elden Beast. . . . Great Ending. . .

AnonymousSmall correction, did not have to beat all nightlords to get the dawn ending. I just did the 4 to unlock the last, then did the last (because I wanted my faraam set asap lol)

AnonymousWhoa, Wylder and Ironeye were the real bad guys the whole time!

AnonymousI think if you want to do character special ending(As far as I know, only Wylder, Ironeye, and Recluse can do this), you need to complete the game with equip the relics, which is second relics given by this character's Remembrance.(Wylder: silver tear / Ironeye: edge of order / Recluse: bone-like stone)
If you can't get the special ending, you can try this.
Anonymous"I must defeat the Nightlord" said John Wylder
"No John, you are the Nightlord" said Jane Duchess
and then John was a zombie

AnonymousIf the remembrance endings are cannon (which I'm pretty sure they should be the "true" endings) Wylder becomes the next Nightlord to save his sister Duchess from dying, Ironeye (might've teamed up with Wylder) goes onto kill the body that you'd put the nighrune on. Wylder is to wander far off the lands between and control the Night to not harm it, sacrificing himself for Duchess to move on with her life.
Now this is my take but unless the actual games lore and Nighreign's lore is interconnected, then the "true" ending would be the one where the giant leaves the lands between. Personally I'm not very sure if they are so I'm voting for Wylder's ending being the actual one.
AnonymousBaffling ending. I don't know how anything in it correlates to the rest of the game. 10/10

AnonymousInsane ending! I can’t believe how hard Nigh Lord Radahn was!


This is the worst website i have ever used just trying to scroll through these endings is so painful
