Colosseum: Road to Freedom is an action role-playing game for PlayStation 2 that immerses players in the life of a gladiator. Captured into slavery, players must fight in various arenas, including the renowned Colosseum, to earn their freedom. Engaging in intense battles against diverse foes, players enhance their skills through training minigames and strive to rise through the ranks.
Taken into slavery, you are now a gladiator. Your only chance at freedom is to earn enough money in the arena to buy yourself back. Whether in a lowly arena on the outskirts of the Empire or in the Colosseum itself, a wide variety of opponents await: heavily armed charioteers, wild bulls, fellow gladiators and more. In a series of battles, from battle royales to one-on-one duels, you must entertain the crowds by spilling blood.
After battles, it's time to train. A series of minigames improves your attributes and your diet perfects your body. Study your rankings, play around with your special skills, and await the next battle.
Colosseum: Road to Freedom is a self-described Action RPG, controlled in the third-person and works as a gladiator simulator.
