|---|---|
| Tutorial mini-boss | Part of the demo, per the official FAQ |
| Main boss | Part of the demo, per the official FAQ |
The demo covers part of the Desert & Canyon of the Dead region, with the Hounds' Camp hub, and runs about 45–60 minutes. Names, locations and strategies will be added only after we check them against gameplay or an official source.
Full-game bosses
The developer says the full game adds more bosses, and that optional ghost stories unlock additional bosses, shape your playthrough and decide which ending you get. The Steam page mentions the Black Rider as a figure that stays “ahead” of you; it does not say whether that is a boss fight, so we do not list it as one. No full boss list has been published.
Preparing for a boss
From the official FAQ: there are no difficulty settings; you shape the challenge with your build, archetype abilities, parries and ammo. Resting at a Campfire restores Essence (health) charges and ammo but respawns common enemies, and dying drops your unspent Memory. For a general method of learning an unfamiliar fight, see the combat guide on the Codex and ammunition, and the demo guide for the demo's systems.
