Blackthorn Arena: Reforged

Blackthorn Arena: Reforged is a gladiator-management RPG from Ocean Media. You inherit Blackthorn Arena in The Freelands and decide how to run it: buy recruits, train them into fighters, equip them and chase glory — or ruin.

A deep character system covers attributes, weapon mastery, around 200 combinable skills and career traits. Promising recruits can become auxiliaries as well as arena champions, and the Reforged edition refreshes visuals and quality-of-life systems while collecting the DLC packs into one Deluxe package on Xbox.

It is available for Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One. The Xbox Store listing is the Deluxe Edition with all DLC included. No Game Pass plans are listed. Coverage of patches and follow-ups will collect on this hub.
