A dedicated fan of Elden Ring is appealing to FromSoftware to incorporate the ability to replay boss battles in the game’s Colosseum mode, a feature that has been highly sought after by the community for an extended period. Notably, this functionality has only been present in Dark Souls 2, and enthusiasts are now hoping to see its introduction in Elden Ring through the Colosseums, enhancing the gameplay experience.
The Elden Ring community has been clamoring for one feature above all others: the ability to replay boss battles. In a surprising twist, a player stumbled upon a peculiar bug that allowed them to relive the epic battle against Dragonlord Placidusax. Currently, the only ways to replay bosses in Elden Ring are by starting a new playthrough or entering New Game Plus, both of which come with significant limitations. The discovery of this bug has only heightened the demand for a built-in boss replay feature.
On the Elden Ring subreddit, user Hexent_Armana shared their last wish for the game, urging FromSoftware to enhance the Colosseum by adding a boss replay feature. They suggested that replaying battles doesn’t necessarily require the usual loot drops, but rather minor items like Larval Tears would be a welcome reward. The community rallied behind this request, with many fans expressing their willingness to appreciate the feature even without any rewards attached, solely for the joy of reliving epic battles.
Seasoned fans of the Soulsborne series swiftly pointed out that the ability to replay bosses was, in fact, present in the controversial Dark Souls 2. The game’s Bonfire Ascetic mechanic allowed players to reset entire areas, incrementing the game’s difficulty level by one. This innovative feature enabled players to reencounter bosses, but its effects were permanent. Although the series didn’t adopt this feature moving forward, it remains a distinctive aspect of Dark Souls 2’s design, offering a unique experience for players willing to take on the challenge.

Interestingly, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, a game whose Soulsborne genre classification is a subject of debate, incorporates a similar mechanic. The Reflection of Strength feature enables players to rematch major bosses. While implementing this feature for all Elden Ring bosses might be excessive, many fans suggest that a Remembrance boss rush, where players can replay bosses tied to Remembrance rewards, would be a satisfying compromise. This would allow players to relive epic battles without overwhelming the game’s balance.
