The Arena now gives you an opportunity to create Private Arena battles and invite your Mafia / Family Members for a close battle!
Q: How do I create a Private Arena?
A: You should be able to see a “Private Arena” button in the Fight
tab of the Arena.
Click on the button to create a Private Arena.
Once you click on the Private Arena button, you will see the following options:
1. Stamina Cover charge for your Private Arena: Click here to read more about Stamina Cover charges
2. Room Name: You have an option to choose a custom name for your Private Arena
3. Min Players: This lets you select the minimum number of required players for your Private Arena (3,4,5 OR 6)
Please note that a minimum of 3 players (including you) are required to start a Private Arena battle.
4. Select opponents: You will be able to select opponents from your Mafia, Family or a system generated list of recommended players.
Once you define the specifications of your Private Arena and select your opponents, click on the “Send Invite” button to create your Private Arena.
Q: Why can’t I see all my Mafia/Family members on the
list?
A: You can only invite players who are concurrently online in Mafia Wars
(regardless of their current actions in the game) and hence only online
Mafia/Family Members will be visible in the list.
Please note that you will be unable to invite players who are already in a Holding Cell or fighting in the Arena.
Q: What happens after I click on the “Send Invite”
button?
A: As soon as you click on the “Send Invite” button, you will be placed in
a Holding Cell and an invite will be sent to the selected opponents to join
your Private Arena.
Q: How will my opponents know about an invitation to my Private Arena?
A: Your opponents will see the invite to your Private Arena through an in-game pop-up notification:
Players can also see your invite in the Arena Notifications section.
If they accept the invitation within the required time, they will be placed in the same Holding Cell as you.
The battle will begin once the minimum required players (as configured while creating the Private Arena) join.
Q: Can I only invite the players who are currently
playing in the Arena?
A: No, you can invite players who are online in Mafia Wars, regardless of
their current actions in the game.
However, you will be unable to invite players who are already in a Holding Cell or fighting in the Arena.
Q: Can other players join my Private Arena through the
Arena Lobby?
A: No, only the invited players can join a Private Arena. Private Arenas
are identified by the 
icon,
with the “Join” button disabled.
Q: How do I manage or disable pop-up notifications for
the Arena?
A: While playing Mafia Wars, you may receive similar notifications
from opponents inviting you to a Private Arena or a 1-on-1 Challenge.
Click on the Arena Notifications icon on the Top Bar to access and manage all notifications related to the Arena:

Use the collaborative strength of your family to show her that she's not as dangerous as she thinks she is, and be among the top contributors to the fight for a chance to recieve a Blackened Widow (212/212) when your family beats her!
Family Boss Fights pit your entire family against an epic boss. In the case of Kassina Kunoichi, you'll have 7 days to reduce her 1,000,000 health to
zero to win the fight. Once these 7 days are over or whenever the timer
runs out on a Family Boss Fight, the boss' health resets and you will
have another chance to prove that your family is in charge.
If you're not familiar with how Family Boss Fights work, be sure to read our introductory post, otherwise get in there and show Kassina Kunoichi what your family's made of!
