In Breath of the Wild, Fireblight Ganon is one of the four Blight Ganons, phantoms of Calamity Ganon that took control of the Divine Beasts.[7] It is found either inside the Divine Beast Vah Rudania or in the center of Hyrule Castle if it is not already defeated. Fireblight Ganon is responsible for the demise of Daruk.[8] It is particularly weak to Ice attacks.

When Link tries to activate the Main Control Unit, a pool of Malice will spiral and create Fireblight Ganon. If Link keeps his distance, Fireblight Ganon will throw tiny multiple fireballs. When close in contact, it will try to hit Link with his sword, which Link can Dodge to perform a Flurry Rush. After Link gets enough hits on it, Fireblight Ganon will be temporarily stunned. Once Link removes half of its health, Fireblight Ganon will begin its second phase by teleporting to the Main Control Unit and summoning a flaming sword and a flaming shield.

During the second phase of the fight, Fireblight Ganon will turn its sword to an orange-like color, and it will have a flaming ball around itself like Daruk's Protection. This flaming ball can shield off every attack except for a Remote Bomb. However, this can only happen if Fireblight is creating a spiral wind pattern toward itself. If successful, Fireblight Ganon will be stunned for short period of time, allowing Link the opportunity to attack. Once Fireblight Ganon gets up, it acts the same way it did in the first phase.

When Fireblight Ganon is defeated, Link will receive a Heart Container as a reward. Daruk will appear and thank Link for freeing his spirit.[9] He will apologize to Link for failing to defeat Fireblight Ganon on his own.[10][11][12] As a reward, he will give Link Daruk's Protection.[13]
