Elden Ring SotE: How many bosses? Answered

There are 32 bosses in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree. I’ve split the bosses between field bosses, dungeon bosses, mausoleum bosses, and main bosses:

  • There are 7 field bosses.
  • There are 10 dungeon bosses.
  • There are 4 mausoleum bosses.
  • There are 11 main bosses.

For a grand total of 32 bosses – which is an insane number of bosses for a DLC.
