00:00 Welcome to WatchMojo and today we're looking at the toughest boss fights in fantasy games.
00:29 If you've vanquished these fantasy bosses, you'll want to challenge the apex creatures
00:40 in the world of Nightingale.
00:42 Nightingale is a sprawling fantasy adventure game where you hunt, explore, and craft to
00:46 survive and thrive.
00:48 As a Realmwalker, you'll craft Realm Cards that open portals and let you traverse gorgeous
00:52 immersive worlds with three unique biomes, from burning deserts to magical forests and
00:57 dangerous swamps.
00:59 In each realm are creatures big and small to hunt, with apex monsters offering the greatest
01:03 rewards and challenges.
01:05 Wield powerful magic and a wide arsenal of weapons, from axes to revolvers.
01:09 Defeat nightmarish beasts to craft stronger gear and weapons, gather resources, and build
01:13 your sanctuary.
01:14 Manage your estate to grow your power and become a Realmwalker legend.
01:19 Play solo or with up to six friends in co-op.
01:21 Nightingale is available on February 20th on PC.

01:27 Laxasia The Complete - Lies of P
01:36 For those of you wondering if Lies of P could hang with FromSoftware's hardest games, Laxasia
01:41 The Complete is your answer.
01:42 Wielding a large greatsword with an electric affinity, Laxasia will initially catch you
01:46 off guard with her slow bruiser-like techniques.
01:49 Once she reaches her second phase, however, she'll drop her armor and begin to strike
01:53 you down with her super-fast attacks and lightning projectiles.
02:04 Laxasia has quite a lot of feints and is constantly circling behind you, keeping you on your toes
02:09 at all times.
02:10 And if you stay too close to her, she'll use an AOE electric blast which will deliver massive
02:15 damage.
02:20 9.
02:24 Thunderbird - Zelda II - The Adventure of Link
02:34 The dark horse of the entire franchise, The Adventure of Link as a whole is an incredibly
02:38 tough game, but things get even worse towards the finale when you face off against the Thunderbird.
02:43 Its boss has an erratic attack pattern, firing endless fireballs that you'll have to dodge
02:47 while jumping toward it to attack.
02:55 Be sure to save your magic on the way to this battle as the only way to defeat it is to
02:59 cast the Thunder spell to reveal his face, which is the only part susceptible to damage.
03:07 8.
03:11 Gna, God of War - Ragnarok
03:20 The Valkyrie Queen Sigrun was an absolute nightmare to deal with in 2018's God of War,
03:24 so you just know Santa Monica Studios had to one-up themselves in Ragnarok.
03:29 With a power level of 9, you're going to have to bring your best gear available while battling
03:32 the new Queen Gna, even if you're playing on one of the lowest difficulties.
03:42 With her unpredictable attack pattern, it's almost impossible to see what's coming next
03:46 and how to react accordingly, which is especially annoying considering how much damage she does.
03:51 To add insult to injury, she has two unblockable grab techniques, which seemingly come out
03:56 of nowhere.
04:02 7.
04:05 Fatalis - Monster Hunter World
04:15 As the toughest boss fight in the Monster Hunter series, Fatalis more than lives up
04:18 to its name.
04:20 It boasts a large moveset with three different super attacks that guarantee death if you're
04:24 hit by one.
04:25 If you fail to break its head by the start of the third phase, it'll become supercharged,
04:29 meaning all of its fire attacks will turn blue and become even more powerful.
04:33 It even has a pin move where it'll stick you to its chest and then proceed to eat you.
04:45 Even with the strongest gear you can get, you'll need to use every bit of help the game
04:48 offers you, from siege weapons to mantles to wallbangs, just to survive the fight, let
04:54 alone kill it in the punishing 30 minute time limit.
05:03 6.
05:07 Sister Frieda - Dark Souls 3
05:19 While we have to also give props to Dark Eater Medhir for almost making this list, Sister
05:23 Frieda stands tall as the toughest boss fight in the Dark Souls series.
05:27 Wielding a gigantic scythe, the entire showdown is an endurance test, as after you defeat
05:32 her first form, she will revive and bring forth Father Ariandel to fight alongside her.
05:43 If dealing with their fire and ice combo attacks wasn't enough for you, she'll enter her third
05:47 Black Flame form, which is even more difficult than the previous two.
05:51 Conserving your Estus Flasks is key in this long drawn out battle.
05:59 5.
06:04 The Radiance - Hollow Knight
06:13 It has to be said, Hollow Knight gets absolutely brutal towards its endgame, and if players
06:18 were brave enough to traverse the White Palace in order to get one of the better endings,
06:21 they're rewarded with this insanely difficult follow up to the Hollow Knight final boss.
06:26 The Radiance puts everything the player has learned up until this point to the test, especially
06:30 their ability to dodge projectiles which take up half the screen.
06:41 Worst of all, if you die, you have to fight the Hollow Knight again just to reach this
06:44 guy, and of course, if that wasn't hard enough for you, you can always take the optional
06:48 challenge of this final boss' even more difficult variation, the Absolute Radiance in the Godmaster
06:54 DLC.

07:03 Absolute Virtue - Final Fantasy XI
07:13 Considering how many mainline and spin-off titles there are, the Final Fantasy series
07:17 has a never-ending list of boss fights.
07:19 So it may surprise you that the toughest one of all comes from its very first MMORPG, Final
07:24 Fantasy XI.
07:32 Absolute Virtue is infamous amongst the community as, at the time, it was designed to be unbeatable.
07:37 When players did find unique ways they could defeat it, Square Enix deemed these illegitimate
07:41 and updated the boss so that these methods no longer worked.
07:44 Thankfully, Absolute Virtue has since been patched to a point where it can be defeated,
07:49 but for the longest time, only a small few could say they've failed this notorious monster.
07:57 3.
08:01 Orphan of Kos - Bloodborne
08:11 If you never got around to playing the exceptional Old Hunters DLC, you missed out on the hardest
08:15 boss Bloodborne has to offer.
08:17 Armed with a placenta-like club, Orphan of Kos is absolutely relentless with its attacks,
08:21 boasting an incredible speed that leaves you very little time to respond and counterattack.
08:26 Things go from bad to worse when it bites into its weapon and transforms, entering its
08:30 second phase.
08:40 Not only will this strengthen all of Orphan of Kos' abilities, but it'll start using a
08:43 deadly AoE lightning attack that'll cover most of the area and take a large chunk of
08:47 your health with it.
08:53 2.
08:57 Melania - Platyphe Mycola - Elden Ring
08:59 It's a good thing Melania is an optional boss, otherwise a large number of her attacks would
09:10 have never finished Elden Ring.
09:12 Encountered deep within Alphael, Brace of the Halic Tree, Melania wields a large katana
09:16 with an incredible attack range.
09:18 The threat of Rot always looms over you with each and every one of her attacks, which are
09:22 never-ending and leave you little time to react.
09:32 Don't breathe a sigh of relief when you down her, because after a cutscene she reveals
09:35 her second form which can easily defeat you if your health is below 80%.
09:39 You will be breathing the biggest sigh of relief once you finally conquer this demigod.

10:07 Isshin the Sword Saint - Sekiro, Shadows Die Twice
10:20 This game is certainly no stranger to tough boss fights, but this one takes the cake.
10:24 Right after defeating Genichiro, Isshin the Sword Saint emerges and immediately puts all
10:28 the previous boss fights to shame.
10:30 Boasting three ridiculously hard phases, if you haven't learned how to parry up until
10:34 this point, you're in big trouble.
10:43 Isshin has incredibly tight openings where you can actually deal damage, meaning if you're
10:47 not fast enough, you're going to be in for a long one.
10:50 It goes without saying that only the very best Soulsborne players will vanquish this
10:54 final boss.
