Mortal Shell 2 / Guides / Boss list All 45 bosses in Mortal Shell 2 Every boss the catalog holds, grouped by the region it stands in and ordered the way the route reaches them. 33 of the 45 resolve to a region, 7 are named with only a beacon or a room to go on, and the 5 endgame fights are held back behind their own heading.
How many bosses does Mortal Shell 2 have? 45, counting minibosses and the beacon fights the source files as bosses. Most of them are gating something rather than blocking something: a Shell, a Seal, a gate lever, a Tarstone. If you are stuck on where to go next, the boss you have not beaten is usually holding it — which is why the Drops column is the useful one here and not the location.
Regions are worked out rather than stated. The source gives a boss a location line and sometimes only a beacon name, so each fight is matched to a place the catalog holds and then walked up to the region that contains it. Where none of that lands, the fight is listed under Not placed yet with the line the source does give, rather than being put in the likelier of two halves of the game.

They sit on each boss's own page rather than at a second address, so the link below opens the record and the strategy together. The ones chosen are the fights that gate a Shell, a weapon or the upgrade system, plus the two early walls that stop the most first runs.

Not placed yet7 For these the source names a beacon or a room rather than an area, and no page here yet says which region that beacon stands in. The fight, the line and the drops are all recorded; only the grouping is missing.

The endgame fights5 Endgame. These are the fights the game holds back until every gate is cleared. Naming them names the last hours of the story, so nothing above this heading refers to them and nothing below is needed to finish anything else.
