Caution ahead, Tarnished: some Elden Ring players on PC ar🌠e having their saves corrupted by third-party invaders.

Did you know that a huge hidden colosseum discovered in Elden Ring has fans speculating that competitive multiplayer may be coming to the game as future DLC? Whilst your Tarnished may have found the exterior yourself by thiꦅs point, no one's been able to see what's hiding inside... well, until now anyway. Take a peek!
