How to find every boss in Elden Ring
You may want to know about all of the Elden Ring boss locations to help you carve through each and every big baddie across the Lands Between and clear it of its corruption. Elden Ring is soulslike, which means the core of the experience involves defeating powerful bosses, such as giant monsters, powerful humans, and even gods. With so many to take down, you may need help finding them all, so check out our breakdown of the Elden Ring boss locations.
Limgrave
Click to enlargeFirst up we have the starting area called Limgrave. This is where you will spend most of your opening hours with the game, and there are a plentiful 28 bosses to work your way through, which include two mandatory fights.
Click to enlargeWeeping Peninsula
Just to the south of Limgrave, we have the Weeping Peninsula, which has an additional ten Elden Ring boss locations, all of which are optional. This area is easy to completely bypass, considering the unclear extent of the expanding Elden Ring map.
Click to enlargeLiurnia Of The Lakes
Click to enlargeAfter defeating Godrick The Grafted you can make your way through to Liurnia of the Lakes. This can be where a lot of players lose their way, so be sure to check out our guide on what to do after Godrick in Elden Ring. Liurnia of the Lakes is made up of 36 Elden Ring boss locations, with two of those being main bosses, and the rest optional.

Altus Plateau
For this region, you will access it through the Grand Lift of Dectus in Liurnia of the Lakes, which will ascend the Altus Plateau, which is made up of 21 bosses, of which none are mandatory.
Click to enlargeCaelid Wilds
Click to enlargeNext up we have a meaty 27 Elden Ring boss locations in the Caelid Wilds. This region can be accessed quite early on through the teleporting trap in the Dragon-Burnt Ruins in Limgrave, however, it can be quite a dangerous area for low levelled players.

Mt. Gelmir And Volcano Manor
Mt. Gelmir and the Volcano Manor introduce a further 15 Elden Ring boss locations, with Rykard, Lord of Blasphemy being atop this list as one of the 14 main bosses of the game. You'll have some way to climb, but here are each of the bosses you can expect on your way to the top.

Click to enlargeOne of the most impressive regions in the entire game, Leyndell, The Capital is home to three mainline boss fights, altogether bringing an additional 17 Elden Ring boss locations. Here are each of the bosses you can seek out:

Underground Layers
Click to enlargeAs if the map wasn't big enough, Elden Ring also has a number of underground areas, which of course, are filled with their own Elden Ring boss locations. These are accessed in different areas across the map, so you will have to fight your way through a good portion of the game to access some of these.
First up is the Ainsel River and Lake of Rot, which is accessed via Renna's Rise in Liurnia of the Lakes.
Click to enlargeThen we have the Deeproot Depths, which you will only be able to access through Nokron The Eternal City.
Click to enlargeLastly, we have Siofra River and Mohgwyn Palace, which are the easiest of the lot to access, as they can be accessed via the Siofra River Well, just north of the Minor Erdtree in Limgrave.
Click to enlargeMountaintops Of The Giants
Getting into some really special late-game areas, we have the Mountaintops of the Giants, which is home to the Fire Giant main boss, and an additional 21 Elden Ring boss locations.
Click to enlargeRoundtable Hold
The Roundtable Hold is initially thought to be a neutral safe space in the game, but we should all know by now that in a FromSoftware game, nowhere is truly safe. You'll find both Ensha of the Royale Remains and Mad Tongue Alberich here.
Crumbling Faram Azula
Click to enlargeNearing the end we have the Crumbling Faram Azula, which is home to ten Elden Ring boss locations, including Malekith, The Black Blade.
Click to enlargeLeyndell, Capital Of Ash
Lastly, albeit accessible earlier, we have Leyndell Capital of Ash, the home to the three final bosses of the game. It is here that you will face off against Sir Gideon Ofnir, Godfrey, and Radagon.
Click to enlargeThose are all of the available Elden Ring boss locations, so clearly players have a lot to get through. If you are feeling too underpowered to go up against some of these mighty foes, then head on over to our guide on how to get 70k runes in Elden Ring.
