Uchigatana Katana Location Guide: Where to find it in Elden Ring? 

Elden Ring offers its players a diverse variety of exquisite weapons, some even inspired by the real world. One such weapon is theUchigatana,a katana inspired bythe primary weapon of choice of the Samurai warriors from feudal Japan. In fact, it is the starting loadout weapon of the Samurai class in Elden Ring, so you can get it by default if you play this class. 

Unfortunately, if you have already chosen a different class, you will have to explore the frightening yet captivating world of Elden Ring to find the Uchigatana. Luckily, I know exactly where to find it! 

The Uchigatana Katana is inside the Death-touched Catacombs dungeon in north Limgrave, due east of Stormveil Castle in the very starting region of Elden Ring.

To get this sword, head towards Stormveil Castle, and look for a slope just before the camp.

Climb over it to find the door to theDeath-touched Catacombs dungeon and walk down the entrance stairs to find a locked door. Don’t bother about the door right now and walk further down the stairs to your left.

Pro Tip: You don’t need to engage with any mob inside the dungeon to get the sword, so just run past them! 

At the bottom of the stairs, turn around and walk through the narrow space to your left. This path will lead you to a larger room. Walk through the narrow tunnel once again to your left, and you will reach a massive hall.

Is Uchigatana any good in Elden Ring? 

Uchigatana is a great early game weapon in Elden Ring for a Strength-Dexterity build as it scales primarily with these stats and offers a decent amount of physical damage along with the blood loss buildup.

This cool-looking katana also has a special ability called Unsheathe that allows players to perform a classy swift slash attack. Additionally, it requires only 11 STR and 15 DEX to wield it, making it one of the best early-game melee weapons in the Elden Ring.
