Dark Souls 3 features a total of 25 bosses, each posing a unique challenge that tests your skill, patience, and strategy. Each boss you take down in the game shapes your character's journey through Lothric and your own journey as a player. However, completing the game does not mandate taking down every single boss in the game, giving you the option to skip a good number of them before facing the final foe.
Whether you're a newcomer or a Souls veteran trying to accomplish everything that Lothric has in store, the following is a complete list of all the bosses in Dark Souls 3, including those encountered in the Ashes of Ariandel and The Ringed City DLCs.
