Streamer MissMikkaa discovers Shadow of the Erdtree glitch that spawns two final bosses

One is bad enough.

Elden Ring streamers and content creators have been destroying its Shadow of the Erdtree DLC for the past week. The expansion’s final boss has given everyone a hard time, but streamer MissMikkaa has discovered a glitch that makes the fight look a little more challenging and a little bit ridiculous.

Needless to say, spoilers ahead for those who don’t know anything about Shadow of the Erdtree‘s final boss. In one of her recent runs against Radahn, she experienced yet another defeat at the hands of what might be the second-hardest enemy in the base game and DLC. However, this run ended with her laughing at the boss because she somehow spawned two of them into the arena with her.

MissMikka’s unfortunate Elden Ring glitch makes the final boss look funnier and more fierce

MissMikka shared the Shadow of the Erdtree glitch she experienced on Twitter, asking if anyone else had seen it in their game. She added, “When the boss uses a mimic tear on you…” which accurately describes the mix of emotions the video brings out in any player.

Yes, those are two Radahns you can see in the video after MissMikkaa’s Tarnished fades away. This is the same boss that Kai Cenat butted heads with for roughly 50 hours and 500 deaths before he completed his run in Shadow of the Erdtree, which should show you just how difficult it is to fight.

The first Radahn, which defeats MissMikkaa’s Tarnished, is the second phase of this final boss fight, Radahn, Consort of Miquella. That appears to be the active boss MissMikkaa is encountering at the moment, while the second boss in the background looks more like an NPC struggling to understand what to do because it’s in a scene where it shouldn’t be.

Both versions of the boss are Radahn, Consort of Miquella, so the second version is definitely a copy. It looks like the glitch caused the boss to spawn once the player character had been defeated. You don’t see it in the arena until the Tarnished’s health pool has been depleted, and the second boss doesn’t move for a few seconds after we first see it.

Mercifully, this second Radahn didn’t leap into the fight. Although MissMikkaa has beaten Elden Ring in two simultaneous runs, one with a controller and one with a dance pad, so defeating two Radahns in the same arena where everyone else has only had to beat one is probably something she could do.
