While you will find two other Battle Arenas in the base game, the Dark Arts Battle Arena will only be available to players who pre-order the Collectors or Deluxe Version of Hogwarts Legacy. You can find this arena inside the Forbidden Forest. It will allow you to tool your character with specific Dark Art spells, such as Avada Kedavra or Crucio, and practice with these spells against many enemies. You can even practice in the Dark Arts Battle Arena to preview how the spells are used in combat early in the game.
