PvP in Divinity Original Sin 2 is an exciting feature that lets players face off against each other in fast-paced battles within an arena. Currently, PvP is limited to local multiplayer, allowing players to challenge friends in the same space for some competitive fun. To start a PvP match, you’ll need to speak with an Arena Master, who will set up the fight and place both players in a designated arena. The PvP system brings a fresh layer of strategy as you use your skills, abilities, and tactics to outsmart your opponent. Below is everything we know about the PvP feature so far, including rules, mechanics, and available arenas.

Be warned that when you become an arena champion in act 2 you can't fight players anymore. The dwarf tells you to get in the arena but there's no way to do so.

Wait what? Is this talking about the separate Arena mode, or is there an arena in the normal campaign with this "Arena Master" and such?
