Wondering where you can find some dragons to fell in Elden Ring? We've got you covered.

The Lands Between holds a total of 21 dragons that players can find and test their might against in Elden Ring. In addition to simply serving as mostly optional boss battles, however, defeating each of them generally rewards players with Dragon Hearts, which are used to trade at the Church of Dragon Communion for Dragon-based Incantations. Here's a breakdown of where to find all of the dragons in Elden Ring.
