Top 10 Kingdom Hearts Boss Battles


these bosses were some of the best bits
in Kingdom Hearts welcome to
I would have known that a video game
based on a James Bond film would have
such a huge impact on first-person
shooters to this day if you want to know
more then make sure to check out our
countdown of the top 50 most influential
video games of all time on our gaming
channel mojo plays for this list we’re
taking a look at some of the best boss
battles we’ve endured across the Kingdom
Hearts franchise sorry but my contract
number 10 boogy boogy Kingdom Hearts one
of the most awesome parts of the Kingdom
Hearts games is being able to face off
against some of our favorite Disney
villains from Nightmare Before Christmas
fans the fight against Oogie Boogie was
a real treat with its own tricks much
like Jack’s confrontation with Oogie in
the film the environment is creepy and
vibrant and movies board demand to be
aware of your positioning however the
best part of this fight is in the second
stage when og becomes a giant Manor and
you have to climb him a la Shadow of the
Colossus well minus the annoying stamina
number nine maleficent kingdom hearts in
her regular form maleficent isn’t much
of a challenge so long as they’re
keeping a good eye on everyone’s health
bars of course the real show comes later
on when she turns into her dragon form
maleficent can deal a lot of damage in
just a few hits this is a fight that
demands you be on your toes and think
quickly it may not be the same exact
fight as the one we saw in Sleeping
Beauty but like its source material and
manages to replicate the epic scale and
number eight phantom Kingdom Hearts one
of the coolest bits of the first Kingdom
Hearts was revisiting areas and
discovering secret boss fights the fight
against the mysterious phantom has
resonated with fans for just how crazy
it can get there’s a lot of telegraphing
to process and phantoms unpredictable
patterns can make it hard to read or
predict what he’s about to do this was
one of those fights where you couldn’t
just go in fully equipped you needed to
have a general plan a back-up plan
a back-up plan to that back-up plan and
so on in other words this was a real
test of skill and patience number 7
Terra’s ian ort Kingdom Hearts birth by
Sleep mi
such terrible darkness
there are many dramatic and tear-jerking
moments in the Kingdom Hearts series
some of them being the boss fights
themselves the first moment that comes
to mind is when aqua faces off against
to possess Terra in addition to the
tragedy behind this battle Terra’s ian
art will prove to be a formidable foe
[Music]
get caught in one of his combos and
he’ll make quick work of your health bar
hopefully you’ll have mastered all of
aquas moves and perfected your
number six dark riku kingdom hearts you
you’re not Riku
the keyhole cannot be completed so long
as the last princess of heart still
sleeps
this one was painful in more ways than
one it always hurts to see friends fight
and this is especially true during the
sora and riku have been friends for a
long time and you can tell Sora cares
deeply about his best friend which makes
this fight the most emotional on this
list it’s also one of the hardest boss
battles we’ve endured riku’s attacks hit
hard and can cover most of the area on
top of that the small area doesn’t give
you much room to dodge so you’ll have to
stay nimble and attack when the fight
[Music]
it’s so nice to see our spiky-haired
eco-terrorist make an appearance
unfortunately we’re sad to say that he
doesn’t pull off any of his moves from
Final Fantasy seven no Omni slash here I
tried to exploit the power of darkness
but he backfired however that doesn’t
mean he’s a pushover crowd is a speedy
fighter and if you weren’t quick on
dodging you’re going to have a bad time
our battle with cloud may not have been
as long as the other boss fights on this
list but it was still thrilling to see
number 4 axle Kingdom Hearts 2 you
really do remember me this time I’m so
part of what makes axel such a memorable
character is his wild personality and
wicked voice so what better way to match
his extreme behavior than fighting him
inside a Ring of Fire
not only does this fight give quite the
visual spectacle but it’s also a
dramatic one like Sora and Riku this is
a battle between former friends and the
music captures Axel’s frustration and
the piece de resistance here however is
that we get to wield two key blades
that’s right axle and we’re ready to
bring the smackdown on you let’s meet
again in the next life yeah I’ll be
waiting number three Sephiroth Kingdom
Hearts and Kingdom Hearts 2
this one was a little less surprising
hey if Cloud Strife is moping around our
one winged angel is lurking close by
nevertheless this was still an awesome
encounter Sephiroth is one of the most
difficult bosses in the Final Fantasy
series and he doesn’t pull any punches
in Kingdom Hearts in the first game he
has five health bars and in Kingdom
in addition to his insane reach thanks
to that overcompensating sort of his
almost all of his attacks can end you in
just a couple of hits good to see our
the light doesn’t suit you
number two lingering well kingdom hearts
we’re all of these bosses too easy for
you are you craving a real challenge
something that will kick your teeth in
or make you throw a controller then get
a load of lingering will this guy is
notorious for being the absolute hardest
boss in the franchise with a whopping 17
health bars lingering will can take you
out with the greatest of ease
he can quickly trap you in a combo
leaving you with only a fraction of
Health this is a tussle that will demand
your undivided attention and top
performance good luck surviving the
before we reveal our top pick here are a
few honorable mentions
[Music]
number one xemnas Kingdom Hearts two we
who were turned away by both light and
dark never given a choice typically we
don’t like it when a boss battle drags
on but when we’re going up against
xemnas this fight was one of the most
awesome experiences in the Kingdom
Hearts series very good you don’t miss a
thing in the first phase of the battle
we get to see key blades and lightsabers
clash then there’s a brief sequence
where you chase after xemnas while
slicing through freakin buildings just
when we think it’s all over you gotta
fight him again while he rides on a
giant dragon like nobody this was one of
the most satisfying and epic boss
battles in gaming and we’d happily do it
again
