Summary

• Final boss fights can sometimes involve facing versions of yourself from different timelines, as seen in games like BioShock Infinite and Infamous.
• Games like Black Myth: Wukong and Zelda 2 feature final boss battles where you fight your own character or a shadowy version of yourself.
• In titles like Dragon's Dogma and Spec Ops: The Line, the final boss is a version of the protagonist, creating a unique and introspective gameplay experience.

Wꦫhile playing through a game, you can be forced to face all sorts of bosses. Some will be much larger and have better powers than you, but you have to persevere. Then, you get to the final boss, which is the confrontation that the entire game has been building toward. Typically, this adversary is even bigger and bette♏r than the others. However, on some occasions, they’re your exact equal. In fact, they are you.

They could be a dark version of your character, another🍎 you from another timeline, or something else entirely. Regardless of what their story is, they’re you, and you have to face t🅰hem. This always makes for an interesting situation, but it doesn’t happen too often. Here are some games in which it occurs.

8 Bioshock Infinite 🍃 ꦕ

Booker Vs. Comstock

The main premise of Bioshock Infinite is that you play as a man called Booker DeWitt, who is tasked with going to the city in the sky🎐 to rescue a young woman named Elizabeth. She is being held by a man named Comstock, a tyrant who runs the entire city. Finding her isn’t too bad, but getting her to safety proves to be tricky♐. It all leads to a confrontation with Comstock.

There isn’t really a boss fight, as it’s more of a cutscene where Booker drowns Comstock. However, it’s right after this that you and the protagonist learn the truth: Booker and Comstock areꦅ the same person. They are simply two versions of the character from different timelines who took vastly different paths in life.

7 Black Myth: Wukong 🐼

Destined One Vs. The Great Sage's Broken Shell

Black Myth: Wukong is one of many games that adapt the iconic story of T꧃he Journey To The West. Black Myth: Wukon𓂃g does things a bit differently, though,ꦯ as the iconic main character, Sun Wukong, dies at the start of it. In the process, his six senses are turned into relics and scattered across the land.

You play as a monkey called the Destined One, who goes on a journey to find these relics. However, late in the game, you discover that th🐟e Destined One is one of those relics, as he's the mind of Sun Wukong and the reincarnation of the character. In the final battle, you face the re-animated corpse of Wukong, aka The Great Sage's Broken Shell. So, it's basically two Sun Wukongs fighting.

6 Injustice: Gods Among🍎 Us

Good Superman Vs. Evil Superman

Injustice is a DC fighting game containing some of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:th🐷e most iconic superheroes in comic-b⛎ook history. Yet, many of them don't act like it. This is because, at the start of the game, Superman goes mad after The Joker tricks him into killing Lois ꧟Lane and destroying Metropolis. This leads to him becoming a tyrant and taking over his universe with the help of several other so-called heroes.

Batman leads the resistance against them. He is struggling, though, until other members of the Justice League are transported there from another universe. These heroes still fight for good but aren't strong enough to topple evil Superman until ⛎they figure out how tꦍo bring their version of Superman into this twisted universe. As the good Superman, you battle the evil one in the final fight of the game.

5 Infamous

Cole Vs. Kessler

The main villain of the original Infamous game is a man named Kessler. He is an evil guy who is causing problems for Empire City and protagonist Cole McGrath. So, as Cole, you intend to defeat the evil Kessler using your signature lighting po𝔉wers. Unfortunately, the old villain has some impressive powers, too.

This is because he is Cole from another timeline. He failed to save his home city from a dangerous beast in his timeline because he fled with his family. Then, once his family died, too, he was all alone in his timeline. Filled with regret, he transported himself to y🀅our world to correct his mistakes. Yet, his methods of do🤪ing so aren't great.

4 🍒 Zelda 2: The Adventure Of Link

Link Vs. Link's Shadow

As always, the ultimate goal for Link in Zelda 2 is to save Princess Zelda. On this occasion, she's been put into a deep sleep. Link is the only one who can wake her up, but to do so, he neeꦫds the Triforce of Courage. He has to do a lot to get it, i꧃ncluding gain access to the Great Palace and battle guardians.

The final foe you have to face is a dark version of Link. His name is Link's Shadow, and he's just a shadowy version of the main protagonist. Therefore, like you, he's armed with a sword and shield. Also, like you, he's tougher than he looks, making this one of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:the better final ꦍboss fights in the series.

3 Dragon's Dogma

Arisen Vs. The Seneschal

At the start of Dragon's Dogma, you create your character and set out on an adventure to slay a mighty dragon. You may assume that the dragon is going to be the final bossꦺ of the game. Yet, the actual last boss is a special being known as the 🐬Seneschal, which is a kind of guardian. Once you beat it, you take its place.

Things get more interesting on your second playthrough, though. Once you get to the end on the second go around, you meet the Seneschal once aga▨in. This time, however, they're your character from the first playthrough (if you're playing offline), meaning you have to battle your old se🍒lf.

2 Spec Op𒊎s: The Line

Captain Walker Vs. Colonel Konrad

In Spec Ops: The Line, Captain Walker's squad makes their way into Du𒐪bai after hearing a distress call from Colonel Konrad. The country is in a terrible situation due to vicious sandstorms, and Konrad attempted to help with relief🏅 efforts. Once you get there, though, you are misled by Konrad and his allies, which leads to you accidentally killing a bunch of civilians with white phosphorus. Walker blames Konrad for this and vows revenge.

Late in the game, you get face-to-face with the villain and have the chance to shoot him. But this is when you realize that he's already dead and has been for a long time. It turns out that Spec Ops: The Line is a game where꧅ you can't trust what you see, as Walker has been hallucinating. His subconscious has been trying to protect him from the reality that he's responsible for killi🔥ng all those civilians, not Konrad. Therefore, this "final boss" is reall🌊y just you.

1 🌼 Shadow Of The Colossus

You Become The Final Boss

In Shadow of the Colossus, "You are the final boss" is more literal, as this𒈔 game features a unique version of this concept. During the game, you play as a young boy who attempts to eliminate all the colossi to save their friend. In the process, they're freeing and being corrupted by an evil creature named Dormin.

After you defeat the last colossus, you run into a man naꩲm♏ed Emon, who can clearly see the corruption, so he has his ally eliminate you. Yet, shadow figures take over your body, turning you into the shadowy giant known as Dormin. As the beast, you battle Emon and his warriors, and it very much feels like they're the protagonists and you're the big, bad boss. While they can't overpower you, Emon does manage to seal you away, saving everybody.
