The Colosseum (闘技場 Tōgi-jō?) is where Dracula comes for his entertainment, it seems. In the center, a coliseum-like ring is located, complete with the host of the event's seat in the middle, and a myriad of other seats for spectators. Other rooms contain storing shelves for weaponry and armor.
Overview[]
Quite interesting is the fact that at the lowest floor you can find the Behemoth that chases you in a lot of Castlevania titles, like for example in Castlevania: Dracula X.
You can find some interesting equipment in the lower-left corner and in the lower-right corner, at least that is if you can beat all the monsters located in these two hallways. The particular room in the lower-left corner is somewhat special, as an Armor Lord stands in front to tank attacks, while a group of Bone Muskets fire from behind.
There are two exits here, the right one leads to Olrox's Quarters towards the clock room in the Marble Gallery, the left leads to the Royal Chapel. Its counterpart in the Reverse Castle is the Reverse Colosseum.
