This is an article about standard arenas. For the arena of Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot, see: Underdome.

An arena is a player versus player area, players are awarded the achievement/trophy "Can't We Get BEYOND Thunderdome?" for winning a single match.

Arid Badlands - Fyrestone Coliseum[]

The Fyrestone Coliseum arena is a very typical arena. The geography is basically a large circle with a few blocks near the center to provide cover. The outer rim is slightly raised above the rest of the level, creating a small crater in the middle. It is not advisable to stand in the middle during a match because characters will be exposed in the center of the arena and enemies will have the height advantage.
