It’s been a long time coming, but Elden Ring’s Colosseums are finally open for business. Curious players and data miners have been searching for the purpose of these structures since they were first discovered, and now we finally know their hidden function, their great purpose, their grand secret: You can do battle in them – it feels like we should’ve guessed that.
With up to six players able to get in on the action at once, you can battle other players in team battles, a series of 1-on-1 duels, or going all-out in a free-for-all skirmish. It’s the kind of no-frills PvP that fans of FromSoftware games have wanted for a long time. If you want to take part, we’ll tell you where to find all three Colosseums and how to enter them.
Limgrave Colosseum location – Elden Ring
As you might expect, the Colosseum is Limgrave is the easiest one to find as it’s very close to the start of the game. If you head north from the Warmaster’s shack you’ll be able to find it in no time – before you even fight Margit or Godrick.
Caelid Colosseum location – Elden Ring
This one’s in Northern Caelid, and it’s a pretty memorable location on the map. If you’ve already played Elden Ring, then you’ll likely know that this is where you can find the giant Warrior Jar. Just head north from the Minor Erdtree and out onto the oval-shaped peninsula where it sits on the edge of the land.
Leyndell Colosseum location – Elden Ring
The third and final Colosseum overlooks almost all of Leyndell and you can find it’s just a short stroll away from the Erdtree Sanctuary. You’re able to find Brother Corhyn and Goldmask here before Leyndell gets reduced to ashes.
How to enter Colosseum battles from Roundtable Hold – Elden Ring
Before you try to enter, make sure your game is updated to version 1.08, then waltz up to the front door of any Colosseum and get the “Open” prompt.
Once you’ve entered a Colosseum for the first time you can go to Roundtable Hold and find a Marika Energy next to the fireplace. This effigy will let you enter the queue of any Colosseum you’ve already discovered with your choice of ruleset and number of players.
