| PvP Arena | |
|---|---|
| Zone | Combat / PvP (retired public venue) |
| Connected to | Mainland (former plaza entrance now opens the Minigame Hub) |
| Notable features | Private player-vs-player wager fights only |
| Entry requirement | None |
The PvP Arena was a public combat area connected to the Mainland. Its public form — the open arena with a duel queue and a win leaderboard — has been retired: the plaza arrows that once led into the arena now open the Minigame Hub instead, the public duel queue is gone, and the old arena leaderboard has been replaced by the Minigame Hub's BOARD tab.
Player-vs-player fighting itself has not disappeared. Private wagers between players remain fully available.
Private wagers
From another player's inspect card in any trade area (including player homes and rooms), you can offer them a wager — either a PVP fight or a Dice Roll. If they accept a PVP wager, both players are dropped into a private instance of the arena scene to fight it out, away from other players. Mounts are stowed for the duration of the fight.
| Detail | Value |
|---|---|
| How to start | Offer a wager from another player's inspect card on the Mainland, in a shack, at The Pond, The Shores, Whisperwood, Frostmere or in a player home or room. Both players need every skill except Smithing at level 5 or higher and 1,000 $KINS held for 24 hours, and trade-locked accounts can't wager |
| Wager types | PVP fight or Dice Roll |
| Venue | Private arena instance for the two players |
| Reward | Winner takes both players' stakes. A fight nobody finishes within 2 minutes is settled on remaining HP (a tie refunds both stakes) |
History
- The public arena previously offered open duels, a queue, and a win leaderboard.
- The public queue and leaderboard were retired in a 2026 update; the plaza entrance now opens the Minigame Hub.
- Private wager fights kept the arena scene itself alive — it is now used only as the private venue for accepted PVP wagers.
