Those who have trouble managing space on the screen might have trouble with his AOE attacks but all he really comes down to is memorizing the proper spacing during those sequences. He is all that stands between you and one of the three Dreamers to be eliminated so when you finally defeat him you will be one big step closer to crossing them all of your list. Although he is challenging in his own right, navigating through the Ancient Basin blindly is a difficulty as well.
Broken Vesselįinding your way to this boss might actually be more difficult than the boss fight itself. Hopefully by the time you reach him you will be knowledgeable about what you can do to beat him, but as with every other boss on this list, see my in-depth guide to defeating him if need be. I also live the irony of an “honorable warrior” who is constantly drenched in dung. His arena is a literal pile of crap but don’t hold that against him. In my opinion this is where Hollow Knight takes a turn into more difficult territory, almost every boss after this one is on the more challenging side of things with the exception of a few. All in all, Soul Master is one of the more enjoyable and inventive bosses in Hollow Knight, even with his steeper learning curve. I do like his general aesthetic and moveset for the most part though and the awesome set-pieces and battle arenas make the victory quite satisfactory as well. Some other players I have spoken to said that he was no problem for them so maybe you will fair better. His attacks are mostly downward slams coming after teleportation and for whatever reason that threw me off quite a bit. I will readily admit that this boss actually gave me a fair bit of trouble on my first playthrough. Just be thankful that she takes it easy on you this first time around as she will not be so forgiving when you face her again.

Although you are free to explore more of the map and earn upgrades to help you in the fight, you will not be able to progress further until Hornet knows you mean business. Many of her own moves mirror ones that you will learn and add to your arsenal throughout the game. I love the first Hornet fight in Greenpath because it doesn’t feel like an unknown evil force to contend with but rather a long lost and forgotten friend, which kind of ends up being the case. (A great secret to make this boss even easier is that you can “bat” the falling asteroid projectiles during his slam attack phase into him to interrupt the attack and give you a window to wail on him.) 2. False Knight is a pretty good start to a great pantheon of bosses. As with every other boss on this list, take your time, learn the patterns, and don’t get too greedy in big moments. He seems formidable at first, but upon second and third playthroughs he becomes laughably easy by comparison. The False Knight is an excellent opening boss that teaches you the fundamentals of boss battles to come without overwhelming you with extreme difficulty.
This game is meant to be slowly explored and uncovered rather than mapped and guided Hollow Knight is at its best when you are forced to discover its secrets for yourself! Also, if you care about spoilers in either the story or the individual “aha” moments, do yourself a favor and only come back here if you get lost. Please see our Ultimate Guide to the Bosses of Hollow Knight if you get stuck on any of these guys (and gals). The bosses on this list must be defeated in order to win the game with the exception of the the Radiance, a boss that is only able to be encountered under a specific ending through your choices. If you encounter any other boss not listed here, which is many of them, just know that you can always come back to them later if you want. I believe the best way to guide your path might be to give you an optimized route by which you will face every boss in the main game that is necessary to defeat as a requisite to finish the game. This is all by design as the excellent artwork and atmosphere is begging the player to explore every inch of its masterfully crafted environments but it also can be quite daunting for someone who is not used to the Metroidvania style and approach to exploring and navigation. There are little to no instructions, even in the very beginning, as to which way you are supposed to travel first or even what your actual objective is within the game. Hollow Knight is a game that is purposefully bewildering and confusing when it comes to navigating its elaborate and maze-like world.
