What are Bosses?

Guardians of Each of Region

The bosses in Hades 2 are often found in the final room of each region. The entrance to their rooms are typically marked with a red horned skull icon. In contrast, minibosses, also known as Wardens, have their rooms marked with a white skull icon and can be found randomly as you explore a region.

These rooms will focus on combat sequences engaged with the bosses instead of the usual swarm of enemies that other encounters have. Understanding their attack patterns and behavior is the key to taking them down.
