📋 About This Mod

Description

This is a boss fight arena mod for Elden Ring. This mod was originally made for practicing boss fights and trying out different builds, without having to spend hours on getting to the boss and upgrading your character, as well as for players who mainly enjoy the boss fights for replayability. Killing a boss doesn't disable them, so that you can keep fighting them.

Note that this mod is meant as a standalone experience due to all the changes it makes. You should use a dedicated character slot for each mode, not use those characters in the vanilla game, and conversely, not use vanilla characters with the mod.

NOTE: I am not the original creator of this mod. Both the original mod and its creator RepO98 disappeared from Nexus in early 2024  (and the creator seems to have removed their online presence entirely), so I took it upon myself to update the mod for the current patch and add the DLC content as it was my favorite Elden Ring mod. Since then, I have managed to expand it with the addition of Progression Mode and many other features, so I hope you enjoy it.

Features: Sandbox Mode

- Includes every boss (defined as any enemy with a named HP bar at the bottom) in the base game and the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC.

- Fight any boss as many times as you want (killing them doesn't matter)

- After creating a new character, you get teleported to Roundtable Hold. Talk to Gideon and select the "Initialize Boss Arena" option to get started.

- The NPCs at the Roundtable have everything you need to get your build going quickly:

- Kalé sells basically every item in the game for free, including fully upgraded weapons as an option. You can buy items individually or obtain all items in a category at once.

- Rennala allows you to reallocate your stats and change your appearance at no cost.

- Hewg and Roderika will upgrade your weapons and Spirit Ashes respectively without the need for materials or runes. All weapon affinities are also available immediately.

- Interacting with Morgott's corpse will let you trigger NG+ cycles at will. Note that there is no way to go back to a lower cycle without tools like Cheat Engine or starting a new character.

- Jar-Bairn allows you to toggle infinite HP/FP/stamina cheats on and off.

- You can also level up for free.

- You can fight bosses by talking to Gideon. Selecting a boss teleports you close to the boss.

- You can choose whether dying to a boss should respawn you at the fog gate, or back at the Roundtable.

- There are multiple boss selection modes available:

- Single boss selection.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Huge community trust (1,791 endorsements) and massive download count (149,565) — this is a proven mod.
  • Re-fight any boss on demand — perfect for practice, challenge runs, or just messing around.
  • Sandbox variant gives you everything from the start, so you can jump straight into the action.

⚠️ Cons

  • Description is cut off — no details on how the Sandbox mode differs beyond 'everything', or if there are any config options.
  • No mention of compatibility with other mods or whether it affects vanilla progression — could conflict with overhaul mods.
  • Last updated March 2026 — might not be updated for future patches, though it's recent enough for now.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Elden Ring players who want to practice boss fights without replaying the whole game, or for those who want a quick boss-rush experience. Also great for content creators who need to showcase boss fights. Skip if you're looking for new content — this is purely about re-fighting existing bosses.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure you've reached the Roundtable Hold in your playthrough to access the new menu.
