Set Up a Private Arena Match with Friends

Hosting a Local Game

To play Ironbound Arena with friends on your own terms, start by loading the map in single-player first to familiarize yourself with the layout and spawn points.

1. Create a new world and select the Ironbound Arena Map as your world type or import it as a custom map

2. Once loaded, enable cheats or adjust difficulty settings as desired

3. Open the world to LAN (Pause menu → Open to LAN) and choose your preferred game mode

4. Share your local IP address with friends on the same network, or use a port-forwarding tool if playing over the internet

Starting the Match

Have all players gather in the designated spawn lobby area before entering the arena. Agree on match rules beforehand—such as whether to allow healing items, which weapons are permitted, or if there are any off-limits zones. Once everyone is ready, proceed into the main battle arena. The last player standing wins the round. You can reset and play multiple matches by returning to the spawn area between rounds.
