Launch Bosses
The full game’s boss list beyond the opening region is being verified against the live game from August 20 — each fight gets its own strategy page as we confirm mechanics first-hand from launch footage. Check back during launch week, or start with the beginner guide and the Shell tier list to prepare.
General Boss Rules
- Losing is sometimes canon. The Tar Golem plays the same cutscene win or lose — but achievements only reward the kill.
- Harden beats greed. Every boss window in the beta rewarded hardening through the last hit of your string rather than rolling away.
- Cleanse the nearest beacon first. Boss arenas sit close to beacons; a missed cleanse costs you route progress on death.
