Dark Beast Ganon

is a recurring boss in.

According to, Dark Beast: Ganon is also referred to as Dark Beast Ganon.

Hatred and Malice Incarnate: BotW: is the final boss of. He is a gigantic, porcine beast covered by BotW: and is the purest form of BotW:'s rage. BotW: is fought in BotW: after BotW: defeats BotW: in BotW:'s Laboratory. Following his defeat, BotW: flees to BotW: where he sheds his mortal form and abandons his attempt to reincarnate as BotW: in exchange for power, drawing from all of his BotW:. BotW: transports BotW: beside his BotW: to engage BotW: in combat, offering up the only unbreakable weapon to repel him, the BotW:. Despite this, it is possible to damage BotW: with the BotW:, NaN Ancient Arrows, or from Sword Beams from the BotW:.

After the battle begins, BotW: will fire a beam of dark energy from his mouth towards BotW:, dealing 72 base damage. BotW: will warn BotW: that the BotW: encasing BotW:'s body renders any attacks on him useless, so she plans to use her power to hold the BotW: back, opening parts of BotW:'s body to attack. She does so by manifesting various sigils of light across BotW:'s body, encouraging BotW: to attack when she does so and reporting successful hits. These sigils initially appear on BotW:'s shoulder, ribs and thigh on either side of his body. If BotW: takes too long, BotW: will be unable to hold back the BotW: and the magical circles will disappear until she regains enough strength to try again.

After BotW: has successfully struck BotW: six times, a sigil will appear on BotW:'s stomach. When this magical circle has been struck, BotW: will expose the core of his being: a gigantic eyeball located on his nape. During this period, the sky will turn red, akin to a BotW:. To reach his core, BotW: must use the updrafts created by BotW:'s dark energy beams to become level with it. As BotW: draws the BotW:, BotW: will urge BotW: to deliver the final blow.

Upon the final blow being delivered, BotW: will escape from BotW:'s core and glow with a holy light, stripping BotW: of his corporeal form and returning him to his ethereal state. In his desperation, BotW: attempts to attack BotW:, only to be driven back and engulfed by a sphere of golden light that destroys him.

In certain Adventure Mode Battles, Ganon is also known as Dark Beast Ganon during his introductory cutscene. Dark Beast Ganon is identical in every respect to his Legend Mode counterpart. In Battle A6 of the Adventure Map, along with every other Map that has a final battle with Ganon, the credits sequence will begin to play immediately upon Dark Beast Ganon's defeat.

Trivia

 * Prior to the battle with BotW: in, BotW: states that BotW: has given up on his attempt to reincarnate into BotW: to fight in his "pure, enraged form". However, the dialogue in the Japanese version appears to contradict this, as BotW: says that the form was born from his obsessive refusal to give up on revival.
