Hey all, just wondering if this is normal or if something’s off on my end.

    I’m on Xbox, and from the very start of the game up to midgame, I’ve pretty much never been able to engage with multiplayer. The Colosseum matchmaking just sits on “please wait until all combatants are assembled” for ages, and I never come across summon signs or invasions, even when using the usual multiplayer items.

    No multiplayer password set or anything like that.

    At this point I’m just curious—has anyone else had a similar experience?

    Would be good to know what others are seeing.

      Probably better off trying for invasions, intentional PVP in these games has always been a bit of a niche thing all the more so on Xbox.

      I think it might just be that the game is years old now and a lot of players have moved on, what’s more the multiplayer elements are AFAIK restricted to similarly levelled players – so you are then looking for a slice of the playerbase that have made roughly as much progress as you.

      Here’s someone asking about the same thing but on pc a year ago:
