ARENARCH
The fight is all there is.
A free, fast team arena game for fans of classic MMO PvP who hate the grind. 1v1 duels and 3v3 team fights with respawns and no healers, everyone equal from minute one. Pick a class and a weapon, save your trump cards and outplay the enemy team.
- 1v1 · 3v3duels and team fights

- 8 classes3 weapon styles each
Remember why you queued for arena? Not for the levels, not for the gear. For the fight. In ARENARCH, the fight is all there is.
No healers
No endless healing. Defensives, crowd control and timing decide everything. Die, respawn in seconds. The first team to reach the kill goal wins.
Everyone is equal
No levels. No stat gear. Equipment changes only how you look. You win by playing better, not by playing longer.
Classes and trump cards
8 classes, each with three weapon styles, talents and trump cards: powerful long cooldowns that persist through death. Burn one at the wrong moment and your team will feel it.
Addons built in
Damage meter, crowd control tracker, enemy cooldowns, cast bars, arena frames and distance to target. All there from the start, nothing to install.
Fast matches
Short, intense rounds, with a break between rounds to swap weapons and talents to counter your opponents.
Arena-wide ultimates
Every class has one ultimate every two minutes. It changes the whole arena, and each one has its own way to survive. It is a show even for those watching.
Four peoples · eight classes
Who steps into the arena

Eight ways to turn a fight
The whole arena hears every ultimate. Each one has its own way to survive.

- PredatorWild HuntA rain of arrows, spinning crossbows in the middle and spears from the sky. Pillars save you.
- MageCataclysmThe mage rises over the arena: cracks, a whirlpool, fire from the ground, then a blast. Run for the walls.
- AssassinGloomDusk, swarms of bats and phantoms lunging at the Prey. See a red silhouette, sidestep.
- Blood LordJudgment NightThe lord hovers under a blood moon. Whoever ends the night below the red line dies.
- NecromancerApocalypseA gravestone rises in the middle and the dead climb out all over the arena. Break the stone.
- WarlockArmageddonThe Gates of Hell open and demons walk out one after another. Break the gates.
Our promise
Free. Forever.
I'm an indie developer and a longtime arena player. ARENARCH is the arena I always wanted: a place to get friends together and run your own tournament, and a place to compete for real, at esports level. So the rules are simple.
Always free
Download and play for free. That stays true for good, not just at launch.
Looks only
Money buys only how your hero and weapons look. No power for money: in the arena skill wins, not your wallet.
No pressure
No aggressive marketing: no pop-ups, no "buy now" timers, no loot boxes.
Everything you buy goes to servers, new arenas and tournaments.
