What 4 Dark Souls bosses would you choose to include in a new game?

I’m curious about what bosses from the Dark Souls trilogy everyone would want to see in a hypothetical new game. You can pick any 4 from DS1, DS2, or DS3.

Personally I would go with:

  • Artorias the Abysswalker
  • Fume Knight
  • Sister Friede
  • Gwyn Lord of Cinder

I think these would offer a good mix of different fight styles and difficulty levels. What about you guys? Which bosses left the biggest impression on you that you’d want to fight again?

Also really hoping we get more Silver Knights in future games!

Midir, Slave Knight Gael, Kalameet, and Sir Alonne. Though throwing in Orphan of Kos isn’t a bad shout either.

It’s a tough choice, but I’d pick Ornstein and Smough, Pontiff Sulyvahn, Champion Gundyr, and Nameless King. O&S is iconic—there’s nothing quite like that duo fight. Pontiff’s wild combos keep you on your toes. Gundyr really tests your skills, and Nameless King… that second phase can be brutal, but nailing it feels amazing. Just wish the camera during the dragon fight would behave itself.

Capra Demon’s my top pick - pure chaos in that tiny room with the dogs. Absolute nightmare but so good. Abyss Watchers are great too since they beat the crap out of each other while you watch. Old Demon King’s a nice change of pace, and Yhorm’s fun if you don’t mind the gimmick (though I know some people hate that fight).

Soul of Cinder’s gotta be on there. The way it switches movesets mid-fight is brilliant. I’d add Dancer of the Boreal Valley too - that weird timing makes the whole fight feel completely different.
