Evergaols in Elden Ring are essentially boss arenas where you can fight variants of bosses you may have encountered earlier in the game. They can prove to be some of the harder bits of content in the game because you aren’t allowed to use summons in combat. However, the boss drops from these locations can prove to be worth your time.
There are a total of 11 Evergaols in the game. They’re spread out from as early as Limgrave all the way to the later stages of the game like Liurnia and Mountaintops of the Giants.

Some Evergaols will require you to use a Stonesword Key to enter. Some are also tied to quests. For example, you’ll need to defeat Bloodhound Knight Darriwil to progress Blaidd’s questline.
*As for Ordina, this Evergaol acts more as a puzzle you need to solve in order to get to a secret area of the game. This is how you get to Miquella’s Haligtree at the northernmost part of the Lands Between map.
Elden Ring is available for the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC.
