In the DLC of Elden Ring, there are 42 bosses that you can defeat. Some of them are relevant to the story, while others guard dungeons and small caves. We will show you all the bosses on the map and provide you with a sequence in which you should defeat them.
How many bosses are there in the DLC? Currently, there are 42 bosses in the DLC of Elden Ring (as of July 22, 2024, 02:00 AM). Four of them are major bosses that need to be defeated to reach the final boss and complete the DLC.
We will now list all the bosses and reveal their locations. Since the order for optional bosses is a matter of personal preference and they are only difficult if the Scadubloom blessing is too low, we will only provide a sequence for the main bosses, so you know which ones to prioritize to progress in the story.
All optional bosses can be found in their tables, sorted by their locations. With our directory, you can jump to the individual items on our list:
Some of the boss locations in a visual form can be found here in our interactive map:
Note: The map was created in collaboration with our colleagues from Gamepressure. Please note that the map is still in progress and is constantly being expanded.
