In June, game director Hidetaka Miyazaki said that more Elden Ring updates were planned, but wasn’t clear whether he meant additional content, like expansions, or simply balance changes and fixes for the open-world RPG. Previously, FromSoftware attempted to balance weapons, skills, spells, and incantations in a holistic fashion. Publisher Bandai Namco noted in a video promoting the Colosseum Update that arenas in Limgrave, Leyndell, and Caelid “will open their gates, allowing players to engage in battles such as duels, free-for-alls and team fights.” A trailer shows players engaged in those activities, and two-on-two battles that include summoned Spirit Ashes.įromSoft paved the way for more balanced PvP in October with patch 1.07 for Elden Ring, which added separate damage scaling for PvP - weapons, spells, shields, and other aspects of combat can now be balanced for single-player and cooperative gameplay separately from its competitive multiplayer.

The aptly named Colosseum Update for Elden Ring launches Dec. FromSoftware will release a free update for Elden Ring this week that will open the game’s previously locked colosseums, giving players all-new venues and “new PvP modes” to enjoy.
