Having been announced with just a day's notice, there hasn't actually been that much time to preemptively figure out when the exact Elden Ring Colosseum update release time is. Thankfully, FromSoftware released information this morning regarding the server maintenance downtime, which gives you everything you need to know about when you can jump straight in.

As you can see, the maintenance began at 8AM GMT/1AM PDT on December 7, and only lasted an hour, meaning that you can download and jump into the Elden Ring Colosseum update right now.

It is exclusively based around PvP fights, giving keen fighters a dedicated playground to test all of their tools within, so don't expect any additional story or single player content quite yet. However, leaks have pointed to a number of new bosses within the game, and with the Game Awards just around the corner we could see more content announced.
