A detailed walkthrough for Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, guiding you through the Colosseum to find the Blood Cloak, Agunei sub-weapon, and prepare for boss fights.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Upon entering the Colosseum, drop down the right side, hugging the wall to find a save room.
  2. 2
    After saving, drop to the bottom and proceed right. Collect sub-weapons from torches: Axe, Rebound Stone, Holy Water, and Knife. A Heart Max Up is at the end of this area.
  3. 3
    Return to the bottom of the Colosseum and head left. Defeat Bone Scimitars, Paranthropus, and Hunting Girls.
  4. 4
    At the far left end of the bottom section, collect the Blood Cloak, which converts damage taken into hearts.
  5. 5
    Go back and climb up to the next level. Navigate through a horizontal section, passing Hunting Girls and a red elevator cage.
  6. 6
    In the next room, you'll face Axe Knights and Valhalla Knights. This room can be tricky; consider using sub-weapons or skipping it as it leads to a shortcut.
  7. 7
    Return and ascend above the save room, heading left. You'll find a barricade and a blue circle object, indicating the next relic.
  8. 8
    Ascend a vertical shaft. In the new room, defeat Blade Soldiers and Blade Masters. Proceed through the door on the left.
  9. 9
    After dropping down, take the right path towards the boss fight or the left path to the last part of the Colosseum. We will cover the Colosseum first.
  10. 10
    Take a left. Jump over a section and walk over a button on the ground to lower a barricade, allowing exit to the Royal Chapel. The Knight Shield is on the other side.
  11. 11
    In the torch near the button, find the Agunei sub-weapon. This weapon shoots lightning and can be held to continuously fire. It consumes 5 hearts per use.
  12. 12
    Drop down the left side, hugging the wall. Find another save room.
  13. 13
    After saving, drop down to face the Owl Knight (defeating the owl first makes the knight vulnerable). Then, face the Plate Lord again.
  14. 14
    Continue to face another Owl Knight, then a Grave Keeper guarding Green Tea.
  15. 15
    Leave the Green Tea room and head right, past an Axe Knight, to reach a junction.
  16. 16
    Jump over a drop to the left and encounter an Armor Lord.
  17. 17
    In the final room before the bosses (bottom left), defeat enemies guarding the Shield Rod, a powerful one-handed weapon.
Tips
  • The Axe, Knife, and Holy Water are recommended sub-weapons against the upcoming bosses.
  • The Blood Cloak is highly useful for regenerating hearts.
  • The Agunei sub-weapon is powerful but consumes hearts quickly.
  • Be cautious in the room with Axe Knights and Valhalla Knights; it's easy to be knocked out of the room.
  • Exploiting the Owl Knight's vulnerability after his owl companion is defeated is a key strategy.
