10 RUTHLESSLY HARD Bosses In Recent Games 

One thing I like about this channel is no lengthy intro just boom right to the show. Love it.

The optional boss in the Legendary Millennium Tower in Yakuza Like a Dragon kicked my teeth in!

I loved entry on BD2. The beast master bard thief gambler battle was the first one I beat. I really had to break out the cheese strat to stand a chance and it was still super tough. I managed to get 3 of the 4 legendary weapons at the end though, so it was super worth it

Kena looks so sweet and charming but has a horror side and bosses which will haunt you in your dreams

Fun fact for Raven Beak, if you drop a power bomb as soon as he summons his black sphere (same with his orange sphere in the final phase) it will obliterate it instantly and it almost always drops a power bomb to replenish it when you do. Makes the fight so much more manageable.

The second DLC for Doom Eternal was fantastic. The first one I actually turned the difficulty down from ultra violence because I found it to just be a bit too frustrating, but I left it on during the whole of dlc 2. It is a gruelling fight but I expected nothing less from taking down the Lord of Hell

Top 10 Dying Light Easter Eggs before #2 comes out would be cool. Jog my memory for what to look for because man Excalibur and Mario Glider Hat in a zombie game ... nuff said

Had been stuck on the Halo boss for ages. Thanks!

Juzo Amon's fight is insane but probably is my third favorite Amon fight, only surpassed by kiwami's and the one in the first Judgment. He's op and uses way to many dirty tricks but in a fun way.

*It's nice to see Final Fantasy XIV get its "once year mention" from you guys out of the way already.*

You can kind of cheese Corrupted Toshi by keeping his back against the wall. He always does a step back when he wants to dodge or after he gets hit. You can reset his step back by charging up a heavy attack and repeat. I think the mask maker was harder then him.

Thanks Gameranx, ive gotten quite a few games due to these videos.. All 4 of you guys and the studio behind yall know gaming,

I'm sure you wouldn't consider the Playstation 2 as recent, but should you do a video on that era of games: there is a heavily underrated game called Orphen Scion of Sorcery. The final boss, Gaia, is unreal hard. Huge difficulty spike, lengthy battle with no check points, and he has so much life. It was one of the most frustrating gaming experiences of my childhood.

I’ve never found the amon brothers to be that tough. In like a dragon the true final dungeon is the only thing I struggled with, the difficulty was night and day.

Glad you mentioned FFXIV Endwalker boss. I struggled with so many of the new trial bosses, even on Extreme.

The bosses in Kena Bridge Of Spirits were a real pain. Definitely not for the faint hearted lol.

Clock boss, Control. It made me draft my Will. I know it's not recent...but it feels recent.

I really appreciate that you're putting spoiler alert at the start of the video. You can expect it from the title, but sometimes I just don't think and play the video. Thanks

I enjoyed fighting the bosses in Bravely Default 2 for the final job class abilities as well as the unique weapons you can equip your party members that give you ALL the abilities of a particular class. One of my all time favorites.

Love you guys been watching for a good while now keep up the work.. it's very entertaining 👍

Great vid as always, thanks!

Corrupt Toshi and Corrupted Rot God were so tough. I first played Kena in Hard since I thought it’ll be just an easy game. But it was like Dark Souls. But I managed to beat the game in Master SpiritGuide difficulty. It was draining but very cool.

i love this channel you guys made me want to make video games and i just started creating my first one.

For me the hardest boss recently was Shiva from PSO2. Tried her probably 50+, and kept coming back. But then one day, I just randomly jumped on and gave it a go...got her that time! I'm sure I'm missing a few but she definitely tested me.

Fatalis from Monster Hunter World wipes the floor with all of these. Deserved a mention !

Number 10 was hard for me on heroic took a few times for me, spent alot of time grappling up and down stairs

Man, Returnal is such a good game. I absolutely loved it.

Surprised to see a ffxiv mention. Its appreciated 😌

I loved the raven beak fight. To destroy the black hole thing, just fire four missiles at it. Then run up to him quickly to avoid his energy field attack. I beat him on hard mode pretty easily since I had his attacks memorized after normal.

I'd have to add in Satan from Dante's Inferno, simply because I couldn't stop laughing and getting owned as tears filled my eyes.

Gameranx is the absolute best meal time show

Yes the good old days I love these videos

I feel like I've missed so many good games (I've never heard of) after watching this channel

to be fair the thing about the orb in the raven beak fight, you can destroy it with just 4 missles

i love how you mentioned FF14 that fight in savage is really no joke been trying to beat him for the past few weeks

Genichiro when he starts using the lightning attacks, makes you rethink why you chose to play Sekiro, parrying it was a hassle at first

For me Heisenberg from Resident evil Village was a pain on the highest dufficulty. I tried so long because this fight is so unbalanced and unfair in my opinion.

I am proud to say that i have beat Bassus on legendary, I didn't know about the cheese spot unfortunately tho that would have been nice. Loving halo infinite campaign and mp so far!

"you can't keep doing this to me!" so funny xD

Lost Judgment on the thumbnail...is a big win! 💯

That corrupt Toshi is definitely a very hard nut to crack. Brilliant game but hell…tough at times.

For the Boss in Lost Judgment there is an Extract that you take and you do really strong movies by pressing the 0 button. With that you you can stun him and keep attacking him. This is what I did. I did had 5 extracts of this one.

Awesome boss raiding!!

The first half of returnal was pretty easy. After a couple deaths, I ended up making it through the first three bosses on the fourth of fifth try. After the world changes, though. God damn. That second half gets rough. The trash mobs are still messing me up.

I don’t know if this count as a boss but the hardest “boss” I have encountered in recent games are the two hunters that shows up in the floor 100 in The Summit of The Division 2. Doesn’t matter in what difficulty you play The Summit they always will be on legendary difficulty, they can also use all the skills and they constantly spam you with either emps or bullets that deactivates your gear

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who struggled with Kena bosses and thought I switched to a souls game

The most annoying grunts in halo infinite are definitely those tank ones who you have to get behind to damage because by god those cannons they use are so infuriating and heroic difficulty doesn’t make it any better but even on that mode the bosses aren’t terrible …even esstrasum or whatever his name … the grunts are harder to deal with than the actual bosses … especially when you got waves and needle guns swarming at you while you’re trying to snipe them all grr

Some Tales of Arise bosses could have been mentioned, too. On the hardest difficulty, they don't mess around.

I feel like you saw my comment about bassus and that makes me happy. I posted it on a previous difficult bosses video right after inifite came out lol. I did the cheat way after dying about 100 times and my fiance was getting worried i might be getting too stressed over a game

You can put all of these bosses on the same team and they'd still get destroyed by Fatalis.

in metroid dread you can power bomb the nova balls and they'll be atomized. If you drop one as soon as Raven beak starts setting up the attack, the bomb will fire off right after RB lets out the nova, giving you rockets and energy. I actually discovered this by accident because i kept trying to use the superbombs to damage him in my first 2 attempts lol

Thx for the shout-out to my mmo XD

With Fu from No More Heroes 3, once he starts doing the area of effect attacks you can still attack him using skills, just have to figure out which ones counter which attack.

For me, Mike Tyson in "Mike Tyson's Punchout" will forever be the hardest boss fight of all time

These lists are truly legendary

hey man I just play games for fun not for challenge. thanks to you for mentioning those games for not playing at all. what inspires me for playing games is story or relaxing after a hard challenge for photography to earn money for buying games 😄

Bassus was such a fun fight doing it the normal way. Kept me on my toes

I liked how you showed Darkeater Midir as a boss that Kena can give a “run for their money”. I was like “nope” lol. Darkeater Midir is probably the hardest souls boss I’ve ever beaten and that was even with three other people helping me.

Ravenbeak I feel is one of the bosses that encapsulates the idea of "Easy to beat, hard to learn." Thing is he has a lot of moves, and chances are you're not going to know what to do the first time he pulls a new one out, so you'll likely die a handful of times before you see them all and figure them out. But when the time comes and you do actually beat him it'll be a pretty clean, possibly even no-damage run. I'd say the only time the fight ever goes against this is when he summons the giant sun. You can powerbomb it but it might not be too easy to do it safely, and if you opt out of doing that then you have 2 obstacles to watch out for as you continue to fight which can be tough to navigate.

Dude I love your channel, but Orphius being a tough boss has to be one of the hottest takes I've seen you do. Like I'm halfway convinced you did it for engagement. Which.... if so, touche. I'm tempted to say the first boss was the toughest.

Great video

Cool.Thanks for sharing this.CHEERS from New Jersey USA

1:21 that grenade man...😂

I haven't tried that halo boss on legendary, just heroic, and I beat him pretty fast. Thanks for the ledge tip for when I do the LASO cheevo.

“There’s no other boss gimmick more annoying than when a boss heals themself.” There’s a hidden boss in the good old’ Megaman X Command Mission who is one of those doom countdown bosses. You gotta beat him in a certain number of turns, or else he full heals and turns off easy mode.

The Valkyrie queen Sigrun (GoW) took me a few evenings (before I perfected the fight) to beat. I'm surprised she's not on this list.

Sephiroth on Hard Mode in Final Fantasy VII Remake was a nightmare

If you want some raven beak tips I got them! Phase 1 1: to counter the black hole shoot it with rockets a few times and it becomes one of his easiest moves 2: after his cone attack, where he funnels you next to him, jump over him to avoid him slashes Phase 2 Storm rockets are your best friend, lock onto him any chance you get, so basically all the time for big damage 2: always be moving. All Raven beaks attacks can be dodged by bouncing around him 3: don’t use omega bombs unless you want to give Raven beak a free hit Phase 3 Same as phase 1 but with the sun to distract you although Raven beak is vulnerable when he’s launching the sun

I just beat Raven Beak yesterday, he was driving me crazy.

I got SO LUCKY with Baasis from Halo because I had shock grenades and my OWN gravity hammer… I made such short work of him on Heroic I was surprised, didn’t get a single hit on 117

Tip for Ravenbeak's black orb attack: Immediately shoot it with 3 or 4 ice missiles and it'll be gone. If you're quick about it, you have enough time before he continues his attack, and destroying them will replenish your life and missiles.

Why not become the boss instead?

Toshi was a very tough battle. It took me many tries to defeat him but I did it. Thankfully I have i stream it and saved it

Damn bro u guys forgot the God of war valkyries😭😭😭t..they hard af espically the final queen one

I appreciate you guys listing the spoilers at the start of the video

For those struggling with Raven Beak's Energy Ball... Storm Missiles. Use Storm Missiles. Also Raven Beak has 3 Phases. >.> First phase: Black Sphere and Anti-Air Second Phase: He's flying and turns it to a bullet hell Third phase: Back on ground, doesn't use Taunts or Anti-Air red wave anymore, but adds a Red Nova ball that requires Power Bomb to destroy.

Had to spend 3 days and twenty plus attempts in order to defeat Ravenbeak. Tip: make sure to have at least 4 power bombs, because the dark purple balls are the least of your problems, the yellow ones that look like a sun is even worse. And use multi-lock missiles against the purple balls...

0:17 do you have to use the grappling hook to dodge hes first hammer atack ? I never played Halo Infinite and i wonder if that´s how the battle started how amazing it would be .

12:24 My Man 👏🏻

#10 you can also bring a turret into the room and put it down where you think you will end up after the cut scene. That's the only way I got through.

I saw a comment on a video from awhile back and it said, “Hi Falcon, it’s Folks.”. Now, that is how I hear his greeting.

This man hasn't tried to chatch the tuna in yakuza 3 remastered and it shows

This list gave me Beyond good & evil final boss flashbacks lol

I am sorry for commenting on a past video but I recently got my hands on Lost Judgement a few weeks ago and I unlocked the fight with Amon in Gauntlet after beating the main story. Anyways I completely get your frustration with him with all his mumbo jumbo abilities especially the fire attack 🤬, but the clear strategy for me was 1. Just keep Taunting and build your meters to full 2. DON'T LET HIM BREATHE with Ex Boost strong attacks. After I did that it wasn't really too much Felt good

I was so happy when i finally beat the dark lord in doom eternal!

Another one that i think deserves to be in top 3 is the absolute radiance, not only It is a big endurance test to get to the fight cuz you need to do a Boss rush First, but also because the fight is REALLY hard, and If you die you need to restart ALL over again.

These are really hard bosses!

It was a nice surprise to see Hesperos at the bonus, it's a nice and really hard fight on 2nd phase, thats for sure.

You make everything sound hard

Bro tha last valkyrie in GoW2018 was BRUTAL... ALL of em were brutal

I will never forgive doom for making that boss so hard

The final bosses of the dawnguard and Dragonborn dlcs in Skyrim the #1 reason being is that they basically teleport/constantly heal heal themselves the entire time

I’m surprised the Spider Ball Guardian from Metroid Prime 2 Echoes isn’t in here, dude was a MASSIVE pain 😭😭😭

*Honorable Mention* Not a boss, but the final level of Crash Bandicoot 4 called “Cortex Castle” took me about 100 plus lives to beat it. The final stretch of the level requires so much precision that it becomes grueling. Basically a boss in level form.

Aw man real sad you didn't mention SMTV DLC fight Demi-Fiend which remixes his infamous fight from Digital Devil Saga, people spend hours just to prepare for him

Cynthia is not only a awesome boss in Pokemon Diamond and Pearl buy Shes also best pokemon waifu.

I had a way tougher time against the final boss of Kena. I didn't think I'd be able to beat it for a bit there and then I finally did.

There are about a thousand different ways to chees bassus, one of my favs is stacking alot of powercoils where he ends up after the cutscene and yeet a nade at him

Bro that first boss on the list pissed me off so much but I actually figured out the ledge thing by accident and you gotta throw a lot of the cores at him too to get him low.

Kuwana at the very end of Lost Judgment, and the first time we fought Tesso in that game
