Elden Ring What The Fallingstar Beast Looks Like Without Fur

One such difficult enemy that players will encounter in the open world of Elden Ring is the Fallingstar Beast. There are three Fallingstar Beasts in Elden Ring, each in a different part of the map. The beasts in the Altus Plateu and Caelid are both of a comparable strength, while the Full-Grown Fallingstar Beast found in Mt. Gelmir is a much tougher opponent. One Elden Ring fan may have discovered why the Fallingstar Beast gets stronger as it grows, and they may have also found out what it would evolve into were the player to leave it alone.

YouTuber BaronVN uploaded a video which took a closer look at the model of Elden Ring’s Full-Grown Fallingstar Beast. Unlike its other variations, the fully grown beast has what looks to be a strange eye sticking out of the top of its head. Looking closer at this eye, BaronVT takes away the fur covering most of it to reveal that a skull with mandibles is actually growing from the Fallingstar Beast.

This gives the strange creature an appearance similar to Astel, Naturalborn of the Void, which is another boss found in Elden Ring. Astel is one of the toughest and most vital bosses to defeat in the game, and to find out that three more of the creature could appear in the Lands Between if the Fallingstar Beasts were left alone is an unsettling thought.

Luckily, the player does not have to deal with three more Astels in Elden Ring, even if they don’t defeat all the Fallingstar Beasts. Fans of the game have been praising the developers at FromSoftware for this level of attention to detail. Some had already theorized that the Fallingstar Beasts were but the first stage in an evolutionary process, and now it seems by looking at the creature without its fur that this has been all but confirmed. This is just one small piece of the vast lore attached to Elden Ring that fans have been discussing ever since the game came out.

Elden Ring is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S.
