Disc-One Final Dungeon	comment	Every Disc-One Final Boss needs a home, and that home is the Disc-One Final Dungeon. Somewhere between the Noob Cave and The Very Definitely Final Dungeon is a suitably epic fortress/castle/ruins/cave/space station that could feel like The Very Definitely Final Dungeon, if it wasn't at the end of the first disc out of four. This dungeon can be anywhere from the first quarter of the game to just before the end, as long as it's epic enough to fake you out into wondering if it'll be the final dungeon, or at least give the characters a strong impression of that. The Disc-One Final Dungeon is usually longer than previous dungeons, though that isn't always the case, and always culminates in The Reveal. To clarify, the dungeon doesn't necessarily have to be a true fake-out to the player. Obviously, when a multi-disc game has an epic dungeon at the end of the first or second disc, it's probably not the last one. Still, for all the characters know, this is the final showdown with the Big Bad. Occasionally this has been inverted during the times of cassettes and floppy disks, when the front side or first disk contained nothing but the intro sequence, the actual final dungeon and the ending, while the main gameplay up to this point was stored on higher numbered disks. With the advent of higher-storage capacity mediums (DVDs, Blu-Ray discs, and internal hard drives), the ability for developers to successfully fake out the player with Disc-One Final Dungeons has been restored to SNES-era levels. As a result, more savvy players will start looking for other indications that the game isn't over (unanswered questions, empty inventory slots, locations not explored, etc). See also Interface Spoiler, for a similar Meta-spoiler effect. Compare You Can't Thwart Stage One and Your Princess Is in Another Castle!, which this often intersects with. Compare and contrast Final Dungeon Preview, where the actual final level is visited early in the game (though the tropes may overlap if the first visit to this dungeon is treated as the last one). This is obviously a spoiler trope, so read at your own risk. And please refrain from turning this thing into a river of unnecessary spoiler tags. For a similar phenomenon in literature or TV, see Spoiled by the Format.

Disc-One Final Dungeon / int_10d303a2	comment	Shin Megami Tensei IV has two points: The first is Camp Ichigaya, where the Tokyo Perpetual Reactor is located. After encountering Yamato-Takeru (and fighting him, if you sided with Jonathan earlier), you activate it and the three of you are transported into the Expanse and made by the White to explore the two alternate Tokyos. The second is right before alignment lock: Camp Ichigaya, but this time in Infernal Tokyo. It's after going through here and killing King Kenji that your alignment is locked down and complete the final quests for whatever alignment you end up in. Unless you choose to align with the White, in which case Infernal Ichigaya really is the final dungeon, as afterwards your sole task is blowing up the Reactor to destroy the universe.

Also, the supposed final boss has a Humongous Mecha poised to destroy the world and kickass battle music. But after beating him, the true Big Bad appears and the game heads back in time. Later, the Moon Cave Nine Months Ago serves this purpose, seeing as the Big Bad headed there, many more plot threads have been resolved and there is a Point of No Return. However, it's not the last dungeon (the Dark Realm is). Clever of Okamiden to use the first game's disc one final dungeon as a disc one final dungeon.

Disc-One Final Dungeon / int_145ca490	comment	Spellstone does this three times. The fourth map of the story campaign, The Void, seems like a fitting climax to an admittedly short story: The Corruption is being spread by the Heart of Blue Fire that the player's been searching for all along, coupled with the reveal of the angel Samael as the Big Bad. Then you defeat him and the Eldritch Abomination he's summoned, and the real game opens up — you've only cleared the very first Story Arc at this point. Only a few maps later (not counting a great many that were released as Temporary Online Content) is The Void Plane, the Eldritch Location where the Void spawned from. It has all the trappings of The Very Definitely Final Dungeon, to the point where its boss level is even called "This is the Final Battle!" Except, no it isn't. The rest of the game centers around the aftermath of your decision to defeat Bluefire and seal away the Void for good, complete with a whole new group of villains who've sprung up in his absence. The Very Definitely Final Dungeon, Conflux Convergence, marks the end of the main story, and has a suitably challenging multi-phase final battle requiring planning in advance. Then the developers added postgame content, marked by golden icons on the world map. These started out as being very simple filler to give the players something to do after beating the game, but as of 2022 they've started having a plot all their own...

Disc-One Final Dungeon / int_14eb91c0	comment	Shadow Hearts series: Kuihuai Tower in the original Shadow Hearts. Evil wizard is trying to do some very very big and bad evil magic, the forces of good are getting together at the very place where they fought him before, and now... there's an entire new part of the world for you to explore while you hunt the real Big Bad. Shadow Hearts: Covenant has Idar Flamme, the place where the supposed Big Bad lurks. After you defeat him, his subordinate reveals that he has his own plans, and flees to the Apoina Tower, which also was the first dungeon of the game. But after you chase down and defeat him, he's rescued by another party, and the game, just like the previous one, moves to a new part of the world. This also happens to be a classic example of this trope, since Covenant is one of the few PS2 games with two discs, and the aforementioned dungeons appear at the end of the first one.

Disc-One Final Dungeon / int_18b424d6	comment	Tales of Legendia does this three times. The first, the Bridge, isn't so surprising because it's only Chapter 4 and, even though you're fighting the supposed Big Bad, there haven't been any Mind Screw plot twists yet (and there definitely are). The second, the Wings of Light, is a bit of a surprise. It's the end of the main quest, but you've still got the character quests left to go, which give insight into the rest of the party. And then it does it yet again with the penultimate dungeon, the Wings of Light in Grune's character quest. What's interesting about Legendia, though, is that the real final dungeon, the Cradle of Time, is actually quite short. If it weren't for all the huge battles right in a row, it wouldn't feel like a Very Definitely Final Dungeon at all.

This is so effective in mimicking a final battlenote The area surrounding it is Mordor, the boss has two forms, both of which are extremely hard (and he's the guy you've been chasing throughout the game), it's the last (apparently) unexplored area on the map, and the name is DARK RUINS., in fact, that the game's real final battle, involving zooming, swooping shots of the night sky above the entire world, seems like an anticlimax.

Disc-One Final Dungeon / int_1c1ceec7	comment	Monster Hunter: The original final rank chapters in the traditional games become this in the G-edition expansions, as they're now followed up by the added high-rank quests. For example, in 3 Ultimate, it's the rank chapter (fifth) that was originally the last one in the Wii version (Monster Hunter Tri). After you defeat Ceadeus, originally the Final Boss of Tri and the Disc-One Final Boss in Ultimate, you'll be presented the first of the high-rank new chapters. This is repeated in 4 Ultimate in relation to the original, Japan-exclusive Monster Hunter 4, only this time the high-rank chapters are unveiled after you tackle the first quests of the original's Playable Epilogue, which makes the surprise factor even more effective. In Monster Hunter: World and Monster Hunter: Rise, because their respective expansions (Iceborne and Sunbreak) were released as downloadable Expansion Packs, the disc-one final dungeon in both cases is the multiplayer quest list at the end of High Rank, as the story continues from there with the Master Rank quests (World has a unified quest campaign that doesn't seggregate between single- and multiplayer; and while that of Rise still does, the single-player campaign begins and ends with Low Rank, not being extended at all in Sunbreak).

Said new story is actually the second half of the game, where Bruno is scarcely mentioned at all and the true Big Bad, Baion, appears.

Throughout most of the game, Hollow Bastion (now on its way to becoming a populated town again) has served as the Hub Level, but halfway through the story The War Sequence begins and the plot twists are tossed out left and right. There's even a short confrontation with the Big Bad. But when all is said and done, this is only the halfway point in the game; you have to go through every world one more time before the true final world.

Disc-One Final Dungeon / int_2192aeb3	comment	A bit of a recurring theme in Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War has Chapter 5: Doors of Destiny. Sigurd is returning home from a long war to clear his name, has just received his signature weapon, and is going up against the greatest threats at this point of the story. Even though his father, as well as his sister and brother-in-law were just killed, some of his enemies turn on some others, so he still clings onto hope that things will be resolved soon. They don't. The enemies that supposedly turned to help Sigurd actually set him up. Arvis reveals to Sigurd that he had made Deirdre, Sigurd's wife, his own, and then proceeds to kill off Sigurd and his entire army. Cue Ominous Save Prompt and a Time Skip leading to the beginning of the second half of the game. The Blazing Blade has the Dread Isle, a spooky island out in the middle of nowhere that nobody survives going to. It is here you fight Darin, marquess of Laus, who is the apparent villain, at least to the main characters. However, after he goes down, the true Big Bad Nergal makes his presence known, and the game proceeds to Chapter 20. Incidentally, the Dread Isle really is The Very Definitely Final Dungeon; you just return there at the very end of the game for the final battles. Path of Radiance plays with this in that your party goes into Chapter 21 thinking it's The Very Definitely Final Dungeon: it's Daein's main castle and the Big Bad Ashnard is sure to be there, right? But you, the player, have seen several cutscenes from the enemy's point of view and thus know that Ashnard is in another castle and Ike's army is being set up. It's still a fairly epic chapter culminating in the game's first Climax Boss (a freaking dragon, no less), but in this case it's the characters in-story and not the player who's fooled. Due to being split into four parts, Radiant Dawn actually has FOUR separate endgames. Three Houses has Chapter 12 (Either To War or Outset of a Power Struggle if you sided with the Flame Emperor.) where the Flame Emperor's true identity has just been revealed, and they proceed to declare a full-scale war on the Church of Seiros. The level has you defending Garreg Mach Monestary from their army or taking it down alongside them, with many faces, both old and new, getting involved, including the Death Knight, who has been a constant nuisance throughout the story. Though it seems as if the player is able to get an advantage in the battle, suddenly Thales or Rhea in Outset of a Power Struggle launches a fatal attack on Byleth, rendering them unconscious for five years and kicking off Part II of the player's chosen path.

In the desktop version, Maple Heights appears as the final district to be investigated, with the Airport only appearing in your map after you complete it. In the mobile version, however, the Airport is visible on your map from the very beginning of the game, meaning there's no reason for either the player or the characters to believe Maple Heights will be the final district investigated. South America is this in Criminal Case: World Edition, as it deals with the Bureau directly attacking SOMBRA, the Nebulous Criminal Conspiracy they've been fighting throughout the whole game, all the way to its roots, and also ends with the arrest of El Rey, who they believe is still SOMBRA's leader but has already passed the leadership of the organization to another member a decade ago. Criminal Case: The Conspiracy has Misty Grove. It's the location of the fallen satellite you've been wondering about for the entire game, and where the headquarters of Rozetta Pierre and DreamLife have been established under the monstrous dome visible all over the city. Many important characters are either killed or arrested during it, and the district ends with Rozetta being incarcerated and DreamLife getting shut down. Sounds like the perfect setup for a Season Finale to take place... and yet there are still four districts left and a whole new problem to tackle.

Disc-One Final Dungeon / int_2819aebd	comment	In Mega Man (Classic) games, once you get to the fortress, each level is preceded by a map screen showing the various destinations you're headed for, ending with a special one that marks the Big Bad's location. In most games, once you get there and defeat the boss, an extra location appears that the map didn't bother to show you earlier. The fourth, fifth, and sixth games take a different route: there's another whole fortress after the one you're initially shown.note And 4 also pulls the "Fake Final Level" trick.

Red sky, lava, a level that's pretty much one linear path to a huge, ominous fortress, BGM that's MUCH darker than anything else in the game, a long It's Quietâ€¦ Too Quiet segment before having to fight your way through some of the toughest enemies in the game, all cumulating in a battle against the game's Recurring Boss in a massive Humongous Mecha to rescue the game's love interest. Is this the final level? HELL NO. But it is pretty close.

The People of Ascalon can finally settle in piece but... WHO was that in the cutscene?! Now you gotta go help the White mantle! In Factions, after getting the urn from the Kurzicks and Spear from the Luxons, you go back to thwart the Big Bad's plans once and for all. Only you still have quite a ways ahead of you...You haven't even explored the entire Canthan map yet! In Nightfall, you have gone to every single Region of Elona. now all that's left is The Ruins of Morah to take out Varesh Ossa. So you take the Climax Boss out and now you're in the Realm of Torment!

You fight your way through the Magic Emperor's fortress of doom, gather your forces and finally stand against the Big Bad himself at opposing ends of a bridge. Then...there's a lot of talking. Looking up screenshots, the Magic Emperor says during the conversation, "This isn't the time for our final confrontation, dragonboy! As any dullard with an ounce of culture knows, that time is reserved for the third act!" The bridge separates, and the Base on Wheels heart of the Grindery drives away, requiring the full party to chase it. And disable it. And scale it. And confront the Big Bad again. If you're playing one of the remakes, it turns out that the Big Bad you fight here is Actually a Doombot — the Big Bad is alive and well, and the real, real final dungeon is The Fortress of Althena!

Disc-One Final Dungeon / int_2d644371	comment	Tales Series: Tales of Phantasia has Dhaos' castle. You've explored the whole world in the past by now, and it's time to make the big guy pay. Only problem is you're just re-enacting the battle you saw in the opening, which means Dhaos runs away to fight another day. If only the party knew their Dhaos went 150 years ahead rather than 100. Tales of Destiny. You have chased the Lens all over the world, tracked it down with the aid of numerous friends, fought several hard boss battles, and go through the end sequence...only to find out that half of the events of said end sequence were a Xanatos Gambit by one of your allies to imprison the Empathic Weapons and the Lens just got used in the NEXT superweapon of doom. Made more effective by the fact that the game is only one disk, and the Lens quest takes a while and involves everything on the box and previews. Tales of Eternia has one at the mountain in Inferia. You're definitely not done yet considering you still got Celestia to explore now. The game follows up with a disk two final dungeon in Balir's Castle. Turns out the supposed Big Bad has been dead for 10 years, and his wife has been running the show this whole time. And she is possessed by the God of Evil, who quickly wipes the floor with your party. Good thing you still have another whole disk to learn how to beat gods. The Tower of Salvation in Tales of Symphonia. It looks like the world regeneration is going to happen, but then: The Spoiler Opening makes this one pretty obvious, thanks to the prisoner, the little girl, and the red haired pretty boy in it that you haven't even met yet, flying machines you haven't yet seen, and a snowy town that you haven't been to yet. And then the Tower of Salvation again, and the Tower of Salvation, yet again. The second and third are more convincing fakeouts because they take place on the second of two discs. The Torrent forest, the Big Bad has been defeated and this feels like a Playable Epilogue. Lloyd fights his father who wants to settle the score, and then Lloyd must fight and prove himsef to the Summon Spirit Origin, King of the Spirits, who has the power to fix the damage the Big Bad has caused. Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World: Lezareno Building Number 2, despite leading up to a climactic battle with the head of the Vanguard, doesn't look like one at first, as the core he has would be, at best, your sixth. Then Lloyd does a Big Damn Heroes act, and suddenly seven of the eight cores are in the same place. And then you get done with the battle, Save the Villain from the influence of Solum's core, and find Lloyd battling Richter, who has the last remaining core. Could it be possible that you're about to get all of the remaining cores in cutscenes and this really was the last dungeon? Considering the fact that there's a cut scene every few seconds, this really wouldn't be surprising...but then Richter reveals Emil's true identity as Ratatosk, and the now not-insane Commander Brute reveals that Richter was the one who made the Vanguard into the militant organization it had become. Yes, the man whose actions the main character has been defending throughout the first seven chapters is the real Big Bad. Tales of the Abyss: You've killed the Big Bad at the Absorption Gate and this last section is a playable epilogue a lÃ the old King's Quest games, right? ...Yeah, not so much. This one was given away pretty quickly, though, since the pseudo-ending sequence included a pan over areas you hadn't been to yet that were very obviously playable dungeons because of the visible, unopened treasure chests. Tales of Vesperia: A few examples towards the end of the second act. Firstly is the massive, mobile fortress, the Heracles, which the Big Bad travels in. The heroes conquer the fotress and also reach him on top of Zapias castle but are knocked off. Secondly is returning to Zapias castle where the Bigbad is activating the final stage of his plan. You have to go the long way and travel through the Ilyccia contintent and bypass a battilion to reach it. The first game's castle is now overrun with toxic plants giving it a more demonic look. The Enduring Shrine of Zaude where the party confronts the supposed, but not so Big Bad, Alexei and defeat him, only to find that he had revealed something greater that would bring about The End of the World as We Know It. The player will, however, have noted that you were told of Adephagos but have not yet seen it, so that can't be the end of the game. Tales of Hearts has the Imperial Special Operations Unit Base Nibelg. Up until now, the quest has been to restore Kohak Hearts' soul, and the commanding officer of Nibelg has the last piece. So you beat him, get it back, and heal her...and then it turns out The Dragon is still alive...and then the Big Bad shows up... Tales of Legendia does this three times. The first, the Bridge, isn't so surprising because it's only Chapter 4 and, even though you're fighting the supposed Big Bad, there haven't been any Mind Screw plot twists yet (and there definitely are). The second, the Wings of Light, is a bit of a surprise. It's the end of the main quest, but you've still got the character quests left to go, which give insight into the rest of the party. And then it does it yet again with the penultimate dungeon, the Wings of Light in Grune's character quest. What's interesting about Legendia, though, is that the real final dungeon, the Cradle of Time, is actually quite short. If it weren't for all the huge battles right in a row, it wouldn't feel like a Very Definitely Final Dungeon at all. Tales of Graces: The game has Baronia Castle as the Disc One Final Dungeon. The party's main objective is to aid Prince Richard in overthrowing his evil uncle and becoming king. At that point, you probably are around the level 20s, and are at least 10-15 hours in the came. The typical Tales Series average level should be around the 60s for the final boss, and about 30 or more hours depending on if you do sidequests or not. In addition, there are many unanswered questions as well, such as the mysterious origin of Sophie as well as Richard's peculiar and violent mood swings. So when the party does succeed, they discover that the new king is Ax-Crazy. Now the party's next objective to figure out what's going on and how to stop him. Then the game fools you again with the Lambda Cocoon dungeon. Sophie is ultimately prepared to make a Heroic Sacrifice to kill Lamda, who is currently possessing Richard and causing mayhem everywhere. After knocking Lamda out of his soul, just then the mysterious woman Emeruade, who has been quiet up until now, knocks out Sophie and absorbs Lambda herself. After ANOTHER boss fight, Richard escapes with Lambda. Tales of Innocence features the Sky Castle, which you go to after having visited every major nation in the four corners of the world already. The Sky Castle is the ruins of a giant floating city in the sky, where the main characters had lived in their past lives. Furthermore, you know that the Big Bad and her Dragon are there as well. Surely this must be the end, right? Haha...nope. Tales of Xillia has Fezebel Marsh: The party has explored everywhere on the world map, titanic showdown between the armies of Rashugal and Auj Oule, site of a previous battle that changed the lives of many of the game's characters, suitably apocalyptic scenery, featuring a thunderstorm over a vast and trackless swamp that can only be navigated with the aid of magic items, and a marathon battle with Elite Mooks followed by multiple battles with major antagonists. And then Gilland (up until now a minor villain at best) activates the Lance of Kresnik, a mysterious army appears in the sky, and everything changes. As fakeouts go, it's fairly convincing if you ignore Interface Spoilers like level and abilities.

Selvaria appears and completely thrashes The Nameless, badly traumatizing Imca in the progress. The second time happens right before the event spoilered in the above paragraph, because Imca tries to settle the score with Selvaria before the latter can flee to The Empire. However, despite being able to wipe The Nameless by her lonesome, Selvaria have given up on fighting you and tell you to leave, thus sparing you from the fate befalling 90% of the Galian army. And the Calamity Raven have sneaked their own version of Bathomys into Randgriz. Cue the final two chapters.

If Sonic does, then he has one last world to complete; Crystal Egg Zone (also resulting in the Happy Ending if Sonic completes it). If not, Sonic doesn't get to go to Crystal Egg Zone and the game ends on a sad note with Tails remaining Robotnik's prisoner.

The Crimson Fastness seems like it might or might not be the end of the game, but your level is only in the low thirties (out of a possible 50-69, depending on what patches and DLC you have installed) and there is at least one obvious boss still ahead of you (Commandant Steele). In actuality, it's the last true dungeon, followed only by a run through a canyon to a cutscene where Steele is killed, followed by a (very quick) fight with the real final boss.

Disc-One Final Dungeon / int_344f4c2a	comment	The first two New Super Mario Bros. games have it. The DS game apparently concludes on a normal looking castle at the end of World 8, with the boss being Dry Bowser. However, the boss music is the exact same boss theme you've been hearing when fighting the bosses at the end of each of the previous worlds. Further confusing matters is that upon dropping Dry Bowser into the chasm, you get the exact same sequence of Bowser Jr. taunting you and running off with the princess (just like when you cleared the previous worlds for the first time). Then the game returns to the map screen and a bridge suddenly emerges, leading to six additional levels. New Super Mario Bros. Wii game has the Airship level in World 8 as the apparent final level. You've been chasing the same Airship the entire game, so it makes sense that the final level should take place there, right? Even Bowser Jr. ditched his ruined Koopa Clown Car for the bigger, original one...but the boss theme is no different from the first two encounters. After this, Mario (and/or whoever else if playing in multiplayer mode) finally meets Princess Peach on the deck of the Airship. A good place to end the game indeed. One problem, though; Bowser hasn't actually showed up in this game yet. So of course Kamek reappears and steals Peach, and it's off to kick Bowser's tail in the final castle.

Though clearly, he's not the Big Bad, so the Bad Ending will play if Kirby defeats him without having collected all of the Heart Stars. Collect all of the Heart Stars, and you'll unlock the Hyper Zone, where you battle Dark Matter and their leader Zero. Ripple Star in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards. As Miracle Matter is The Heavy and the one in control of Ripple Star, defeating it without all 74 Crystal Shards will cause Dark Matter to escape and Kirby and his friends will leave to return home with the queen of Ripple Star still possessed by Dark Matter. Kirby's Return to Dream Land does this twice. First, there's the final level on Planet Popstar, Nutty Noon. Did you really think the game would end there after taking on the king of the Doomers? We haven't even gotten all of the Energy Spheres yet! There's also Dangerous Dinner, where it becomes Kirby's mission to trek all the way up to Haldera Volcano to battle the Guardian Angel, Landia. But defeat him, and Magolor arrives to make a surprise... The Decisive Battlefield becomes this in Super Kirby Clash as a result of being Demoted to Extra. Just like Team Kirby Clash Deluxe, you fight Landia EX and Parallel Susie before you encounter Parallel Nightmare... only this time, he summons King D-Mind to attack Team Kirby. And even though the credits roll after defeating him, it's clear that he's still on the loose, as more monsters begin attacking near the Grasslands. Kirby and the Forgotten Land does this twice again. First, there's Winter Horns, where you battle King Dedede, the supposed leader of the Beast Pack. Defeating him, however, causes him to capture Elfilin and fly off into the unknown. Then, there's Redgar Forbidden Lands, the final level before you reach Lab Discovera. And guess who you encounter guarding the entrance to the lab? King Dedede again, this time brainwashed into the bestial Forgo Dedede. Defeating him frees him from Mind Control and leads directly into Lab Discovera, where you fight Leongar, and later, the true Big Bad, Fecto Forgo.

The second major fake-out is Zora's Castle. You've gone through all 3 regions, explored nearly every corner of the world map, and the final Mist Generator apparently lies within, flying high above the world, but the entire castle was just a trap to lure you in and kill you; the true source of the Mist lies elsewhere. The final Mist Generator lies in Jette's Fortress. After that, you return to your hometown as the saviors of the world. Everything appears to be over, but it isn't until after clearing another dungeon that you head to The Very Definitely Final Dungeon...Juggernaut himself, who survived by fusing with Prince Cort.

Disc-One Final Dungeon / int_46aac2a3	comment	Elden Ring gives us Leyndell, the Royal Capital. The sprawling, ruined capital of the Lands Between, it's the largest, most complex, and least linear of the game's main dungeons, being a sprawling labyrinth of streets, back alleys, and rooftops filled with powerful enemies and mini bosses. You need at least two Great Runes to even access the region of the map it's in, which necessitates defeating at least two other demigods, and you also need to defeat the Draconic Tree Sentinel, a very tough Beef Gate of a boss, just to open the gate leading into the city. The city itself plays host to the Erdtree, which is the destination of the main quest and has been looming over the horizon for literally the entire game. It climaxes with a battle against Morgott, the Omen King, who has been your most persistent and personal antagonist throughout the story. Despite occurring likely dozens of hours into the game and feeling climactic as hell, the main quest is only halfway over after you beat Leyndell. Defeating Morgott and accessing the Erdtree leads to the revelation that Radagon's seal is preventing anyone from entering the Erdtree and becoming Elden Lord, and in order to complete their quest, the Tarnished is going to have to endure a lot more hardship.

Disc-One Final Dungeon / int_476bc61d	comment	Kid Icarus: Uprising manages to pull this off several times: Chapter 9: Ominous atmosphere, it's the underworld, showdown against the apparent Big Bad, All the Worlds Are a Stage AND Boss Rush, The Rival reluctantly appearing to help out, 11th-Hour Superpower, and Multi-Stage Battle. They've even gone through every boss from the classic games, what more material could they possibly have. It's even called "Medusa's Final Battle", which is technically true: it IS Medusa's final battle, but she's far from the final boss. The game even rolls fake credits afterwards, with Pit and Palutena congratulating each other on a job well done, until a third voice enters the conversation, and a giant hand rips through the screen, revealing the real leader of the Underworld Army: Hades. And you're not even halfway through the game. Before long, with you still on your toes from Hades' appearance, in come a whole new set of enemies, the Forces of Nature. But then, one level before you gear up to confront their leader and get it back on with the Underworld Army... In come more new enemies, the Aurum! They're far beyond the scope of any other enemy in this game, and it takes teaming up with both the Underworld Army AND the Forces of Nature to take them down! But just after they disappear as quickly as they appear and you seem to finally be getting along with your old enemies, everything changes... There's also Chapter 23; after you've finally cleared out all the other opponents who've gotten in your way, you bring out the Three Sacred Treasures once again and it looks like you're going to have the real final battle with Hades, but it turns out they're not strong enough to beat him. So after escaping the Womb Level you have to go out of your way one more time to get an even better weapon that can stand up to Hades.

While it's betrayed by being a level 55 dungeon in a level 60 expansion, from a plot perspective it has all the markings. Its an ominous floating set of ruins concealed in a perpetual thunderstorm where the player goes to battle Nidhogg, the apparent Big Bad of the expansion. It even ends in Nidhogg's death! But then the larger conspiracy with the Corrupt Church comes into play. The following dungeon, the Vault, does this again, as the player storms the massive gothic church/tower in the centre of Ishgard's capital to take them down, but they end up fleeing. Finally the player catches up to them on a Floating Continent and battle them when they ascend to godhood. And despite this being the actual final boss of version 3.0, this trope plays again when it turns out that Nidhogg is Not Quite Dead, leading the plot to continue with Nidhogg as the actual Big Bad. The storyline did not come to a proper conclusion until patch 3.3. Each expansion from A Realm Reborn onward concludes with a Final Boss at the expansion's level cap, the Ultima Weapon and Lahabrea/Thancred in A Realm Reborn, King Thorden and the Knights of the Round in Heavensward, Shinryu/Zenos yae Galvus in Stormblood, Emet-Selch/Hades in Shadowbringers and Meteion/The Endsinger and Zenos viator Galvus in Endwalker. While many of the end game bosses after these encounters (like Extreme Primals and Alliance Raids) are technically Optional Bosses, the game's main scenario quest actually continues onward from this point, culminating in the lead up to the next expansion; Vishap at the Steps of Faith in A Realm Reborn, The Griffin/Ilberd Feare in Heavensward, The Ascian Elidibusnote Posessing the body of Zenos in Stormblood, The Telophoroi Primal Lunar Ifrit in Shadowbringers and Zeromus and a Giant Colibrinote Zeromus is the final boss of the 6.1-6.5 Void storyline, while the Colibri is the last fight of the expansion as a whole in Endwalker are the actual final bosses of their respective expansions. Happens with Shadowbringers with Mount Gulg, where the final Lightwarden resides; you'd think that defeating them would be the end, right? Only, you're level 79 in the level 80 expansion and there's one more zone you haven't explored... In Endwalker there is The tower of Babil, this is where the villains up to this point are based, so storming up should put a stop to them right? well you're only at level 83 and the level cap is 90 so you're not even close to the end.

Disc-One Final Dungeon / int_49ad83ee	comment	Almost any raid dungeon in World of Warcraft fits, thanks to how patches constantly add more throughout each expansion. At any given time the "current" raid is the Disc One Final Boss, you only get the expansion's final boss with the final content patch. A prominent example would be the first expansion's, Burning Crusade, Black Temple. Illidan was built up as the expansion's focus and final boss, but Blizzard, new to creating expansion content, screwed up their pacing and didn't include enough raid content/released it too quickly. So they were forced to throw in the totally unexpected Sunwell Plateau in order to keep players engaged until the 2nd expansion was ready. Other prominent examples of "patch final dungeons" typically awarding the tier of raid gear just below the final raid of each expansion are the ancient Titan-forged city of Ulduar in Wrath of the Lich King, the elemental plane of the Firelands in Cataclysm, the resurgent mogu empire's ancient capital, the Throne of Thunder in Mists of Pandaria, Blackrock Foundry, the blazing heart of the Iron Horde's war machine in Warlords of Draenor, and the Demonic beachhead on Azeroth at the Tomb of Sargeras in Legion, The Eternal Palace of Queen Azshara of the Naga in Battle for Azeroth, The Sanctum of Domination, the home base of The Jailer in Shadowlands.

Rool's Keep at the very top of the Kremling's Island-Mountain home. The final level of every world is the Boss Battle, with this one called "Stronghold Showdown" located on the highest level of the fortress. Diddy and Dixie walk into the room where the presumed battle will take place, find Donkey bound in ropes hanging from the ceiling, and awkwardly begin celebrating as they are awarded with a Kremcoin typically given AFTER beating a boss. DK is pulled up to the ceiling, the small Kongs shout in surprise and climb further up the Castle. A small cutscene shows a huge, crocodile airship flying over the Castle as K. Rool climbs up from the Keep on a rope ladder with DK in tow. The Kongs have to go through one more level (apparently a portion of the seemingly massive rope ladder that has been twisted and bundled up like a power cord into a race track for birds) before they can fight K. Rool. The Game Boy Advance version features a short dialog with K. Rool before he escapes and summons a firebreathing boss called Kerozene. Furthermore, there is a hidden world and a second, hidden boss battle with K. Rool that is accessible only after beating K. Rool the first time and obtaining every Kremcoin.

More than a few people have rushed onto message boards to complain about the horrible "ending" without realizing that they were only 80% done. And before those is another dungeon that the characters think will end things, even if it's a somewhat clearer fake to the player. Now Mitsuo's dungeon, on the other hand, is unconvincing; everyone acts as though they are finally going to get the murderer, but genre savvy players will note that they haven't even completed half the year the main character is meant to be staying. Or the fact that every other line he says makes it obvious he can't have been the murderer. Or that your characters and Personas at this point are around level 40-50, while attempting certain Persona fusions reveals the existence of Personas as high as level 60 or 70, implying the true length of the game. Also helps to note that Mitsuo's victim had nothing in common with the others.

Now merged with Lucifer Palace/the Chaos Zone, this is where Hallelujah and Abe finally settle things and where Armageddon happens. If you deny both Merkabah and Lucifer, the Divine Powers will re-emerge the next day; otherwise, it really is the last dungeon. The second is the Cosmic Egg, the final Divine Powers dungeon. Filled with bosses and even the alignment lock, it marks Krishna's last stand. After, however, Stephen manages to shift the target to YHVH, leading to the actual final dungeon.

You finally get there, and the gates are shut tight. After Storming the Castle, you reach a room where a lone woman sits on a giant throne, far off from you. You speak with her, and she says...the king isn't here? What? Welcome to the last third of the game.

However, after killing Loren and blowing the tower up (if you so choose), it's revealed that Killbane has taken over leadership of the Syndicate. Meaning that you've got more work to do. This is a distinct tipping point though, where the Saints go from the underdog to the rising power in the city.

Next up is Leon facing a horrific hybrid between Salazar, the second Verdugo and the Queen Plaga, which is only a Disc-One Final Boss; and after he wins he descends the tower and, with Ada's help, go to the island where Ashley was taken. The fact that Saddler (Salazar's superior) is still alive by that point is another indication that the game wasn't going to end just yet. In the game's original version on the GCN, this prompted a disc swap, meaning the trope has a literal context in this game as well.

Disc-One Final Dungeon / int_74f7210c	comment	The Legend of Zelda: The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past: The game set the tradition in itself and subsequent games of featuring a progression format that involves Link getting three Plot Coupons before a major plot event occurs that pushes the player to search for another set of Plot Coupons. In this specific game, you face the assumed Big Bad, Agahnim, in Hyrule Castle Tower after getting the Pendants of Virtue and the Master Sword, after which the more expansive second half of the game opens up. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker: The Forsaken Fortress. You got all three pearls and the Master Sword. Now you're going back to save your sister and defeat Ganondorf. Except the Master Sword is unpowered and worthless. Now you have to get more items, do two more dungeons, get the Triforce of Courage, and then defeat Ganondorf. The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass: The Ghost Ship. It's suitable for the final dungeon, because Tetra is there, but you still need three more items and you haven't explored half of the ocean. The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks: The top floor of the Tower of Spirits, in which you manage to reach Malladus' Altar, which was your goal from the beginning, and defeat The Dragon, Byrne. Once that's out of the way, though, you find that Malladus has already been resurrected in Zelda's body, and Chancellor Cole summons the Demon Train to spirit himself and the Demon King away, leaving you behind. It's not until you've completed one more Temple and a final visit to the Tower of Spirits' hidden levels that you manage to catch up with Cole and Malladus, this time on the Dark Realm. The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds: The game largely repeats the events of A Link to the Past, and thus Hyrule Castle once more displays the trope after this generation's Link has collected the pendants and Master Sword; it's where the existence of Lorule is revealed and Link first travels there. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom: Hyrule Castle is unique in that, like in Breath of the Wild, it can be visited anytime in the game (as long as Link has the means to reach it, since it's now floating above a large chasm), and it also has its own dungeon-style map like the temples do; however, no boss appears here at first. After the four elemental temple dungeons are conquered and their corresponding new Sages are christened as such, Link and Purah sight Princess Zelda in the castle, so the young hero heads there in an attempt to finally reunite with her. However, after trying to reach the princess in several parts of the castle and defeating hordes of enemies in the process, Link discovers that the person he (and many other characters) though to be Zelda is revealed to be Phantom Ganon in disguise, prompting a boss battle (much longer than the usual fights against him that ensue when Link defeats a group of Gloom Hands). Completing Hyrule Castle leads to a plot-critical reveal that prompts an additional Story Arc in search for a fifth Sage, thus postponing the quest to find and defeat Ganondorf.

But then it turns out this Mr. X is actually a robotic duplicate, and after defeating him, the search for him and quest to stop his latest scheme continues. Unless you're playing the U.S. version on Easy difficulty, where the game ends prematurely and Robo X mocks the heroes for "playing this game like a beginner". Streets of Rage 4 Stage 9 takes place in Y Tower, which seems to be the place of the final confrontation with Mr. Y and Ms. Y. But instead of fighting them, it's a Brainwashed and Crazy Max who you have to fight. It takes another three stages to stop the mass-brainwashing plot and neutralize the Y twins.

Disc-One Final Dungeon / int_7dad8347	comment	FreeSpace 2 sets you up to fight the mighty Shivan Juggernaut-class ship Sathanas, as you have to take a bomber in to blow out its beam cannons so the Colossus, the pride of the GTVA, can tear it down without being blown apart itself. This comes at the climax of a lengthy campaign, and it's almost strange that the game sends you on mopping-up missions through the Knossos wormhole afterward, until you discover a Shivan transfer point where dozens of Sathanas ships are passing through, heading for GTVA space, and you've got a solid third of the game to go. Volition (who also made Summoner, mentioned above) loves blind-siding players with this trope.

You defeat Epsilon, then a cutscene plays and you return to Giga City to go home...only to realize that your boss is the REAL Big Bad and you've been playing right into his hands. So you have to go through The Very Definitely Final Dungeon and fight through the franchise's signature Boss Rush, then another powerful boss, and THEN the True Final Boss.

Disc-One Final Dungeon / int_8258e260	comment	Super Mario Bros.: Super Mario Bros.: The first example in the series goes back all the way to the original game. Games of the time were usually a short sequence of levels that would repeat ad nauseam, with minor tweaks to increase difficulty along the way, so imagine the surprise of a gamer weaned on Atari 2600 games who makes his way through world 1-4 only to discover that, not only did he not just rescue the princess, but there's a whole new set of levels to run through! Super Mario Bros. 3. Seven Koopalings have taken over seven kingdoms, so just go to those seven kingdoms (Worlds), defeat the Koopalings, and all is well, right? Wrong, because at the end of World 7, Bowser reveals that he's kidnapped Princess Peach, and now you must go into his homeworld (World 8) and save her! The first two New Super Mario Bros. games have it. The DS game apparently concludes on a normal looking castle at the end of World 8, with the boss being Dry Bowser. However, the boss music is the exact same boss theme you've been hearing when fighting the bosses at the end of each of the previous worlds. Further confusing matters is that upon dropping Dry Bowser into the chasm, you get the exact same sequence of Bowser Jr. taunting you and running off with the princess (just like when you cleared the previous worlds for the first time). Then the game returns to the map screen and a bridge suddenly emerges, leading to six additional levels. New Super Mario Bros. Wii game has the Airship level in World 8 as the apparent final level. You've been chasing the same Airship the entire game, so it makes sense that the final level should take place there, right? Even Bowser Jr. ditched his ruined Koopa Clown Car for the bigger, original one...but the boss theme is no different from the first two encounters. After this, Mario (and/or whoever else if playing in multiplayer mode) finally meets Princess Peach on the deck of the Airship. A good place to end the game indeed. One problem, though; Bowser hasn't actually showed up in this game yet. So of course Kamek reappears and steals Peach, and it's off to kick Bowser's tail in the final castle. Super Mario 3D Land: At the World 8 castle, you beat Bowser again, with the same boss theme as before. After beating him you go to the top of the castle and see Princess Peach...as a cardboard cutout. You see Bowser again, with the real Peach who takes her away and then you have to do one more level and then the real final castle. After you finish the game though, you can enter pipes in the worlds leading to eight new worlds. From there a few things happen such as unlocking Luigi. So technically this game does it twice over. Super Mario 3D World: The seventh world, World Castle is this. The entire world is the sort of Lethal Lava Land Bowser loves, you have a battle with Bowser in his Cool Car, and save the last Sprixie Princess. Sure, Mario games traditionally have eight worlds, but this one channels a lot of Super Mario Bros. 2 which had seven. But, after defeating Bowser again, he manages to come in and capture all of the Sprixie Princesses, and takes them to World Bowser, an Amusement Park of Doom. Super Mario Odyssey has Bowser's Kingdom. If the name of the place wasn't enough, the entire level is structured as an enormous Japanese-style palace, complete with several courtyards. After making your way to the top of the castle, it looks like the final showdown against Bowser is about to begin...only for him to take off, Peach in tow, leaving the Broodals to deal with Mario. Once that's taken care of, it's time for the actual final showdown on the Moon.

After the 50th level, there are eight boss fights in a row, each one after the first claiming to be the final one of course (culminating with "I Bet This Is Not the Final Boss..."), after which it gives you a fake credit roll, and a "the end", sign, then it takes you to a Breather Level where the spikes run away from you, followed by another fake credit roll and a "really the end" sign. The game then closes, and reopens a few seconds later with "fooled you again". You then have to complete six "Super Karoshi Kart Racing 2000: Extreme Awesome" levels. And yes, there is a fake "thanks for playing" message (followed by the Awesome Smiley). AND THEN you have to complete this weird level called "Shadow Of The Bossus". You then get a screen with your character and a giant spike, which fades out to black and gives you the real credit roll, then a white screen, then a "thanks for play" screen. The only way to escape from this is to press escape, which takes you to the main menu, except that now, none of the buttons work. Pressing escape again gives a message saying "it's not over yet", and then fades back into the level with the giant spike. Touching it allows you to fly, and flying out the top of the level leads to a heaven level with a heart and a spike, simply saying "choose". Touching the heart gives a final pink and white screen with "the end". And yes, it's real this time. Touching the spike, however, sends you to Purgatory in the form of the first level from the first game, over and over and over again.

The fact that the player must ascend the tallest tower in the game just to reach it adds to the illusion. Phantasy Star II had Climatrol. Nei killed in a Hopeless Duel Boss Fight, the first boss monster seen in the game so far, and there's the fact that this is supposed to be the source of all the biomonsters. And when you're done, there's a Nice Job Breaking It, Hero moment. Phantasy Star IV had Zio's Castle. Made more dramatic by the fact that the namesake permanently kills off a character and the second fight with him is more of a revenge battle. And then it does it two more times: At the end of artificial satellite Kuran, the party congratulates themselves on a job well done until Rika points out that the weather on Dezoris still hasn't returned to normal. And when that is solved by beating Garubek Tower, a nearby temple suddenly explodes and the existence of a whole planet never before seen in the entire series is revealed. Also notable is that the latter two dungeons end with a battle with the Eldritch Abomination that was the final boss in two of the three previous installments.

Disc-One Final Dungeon / int_8ee238c9	comment	The Persona series: Persona 3: the fourth block of Tartarus; assuming you complete the block before the full moon in November, you reach the top of the block only to find that it's also the top of the massive tower. Only after three Disc One Final Bosses, two of which are fought simultaneously, and a Wham Episode, do the final two blocks emerge for you to plow through. Persona 4 pulls this twice, and actually succeeds because you have the option of getting a bad ending at those points if you don't choose to pursue the unanswered mysteries. More than a few people have rushed onto message boards to complain about the horrible "ending" without realizing that they were only 80% done. And before those is another dungeon that the characters think will end things, even if it's a somewhat clearer fake to the player. Now Mitsuo's dungeon, on the other hand, is unconvincing; everyone acts as though they are finally going to get the murderer, but genre savvy players will note that they haven't even completed half the year the main character is meant to be staying. Or the fact that every other line he says makes it obvious he can't have been the murderer. Or that your characters and Personas at this point are around level 40-50, while attempting certain Persona fusions reveals the existence of Personas as high as level 60 or 70, implying the true length of the game. Also helps to note that Mitsuo's victim had nothing in common with the others. Persona 5 meanwhile has three: Sae Nijima's Palace a.k.a. the Casino Palace from the beginning of the game. You know how everything will end, only now you start to see the full picture of what happened. Assuming that you avoid the Bad Ending after this dungeon, you then proceed onto... Shido's Palace, the Palace of the Big Bad of the game. It features climactic battles against the Big Bad and the Traitor. However, assuming you've been keeping up with exploring Mementos, after that is... Mementos Depths, the very bottom of Mementos and what Morgana's character arc has been building up to. However, despite the Very Definitely Final Dungeon feel and the confrontation with the Greater-Scope Villain, the boss fight is a Hopeless Boss Fight and the dungeon only really serves as a set-up for the actual Very Definitely Final Dungeon, the Qlipoth World (assuming that you don't go for the very obvious Bad Ending choice). In Persona 5 Strikers, the Osaka Jail is set up as the confrontation with the Big Bad, and the raid on it takes place when summer vacation is almost over, only for the game to continue after the end of that Jail. In Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth, the fourth labyrinth is set up as the final one, since there are four locks on the door to the theater that the protagonists are trying to escape, and each labyrinth has a key. The labyrinth goes into Hikari's backstory and answers some of the mysteries about the other three labyrinths. The end boss is Doe, a mysterious figure who had been thought to be the Big Bad, and after his defeat, his true nature is uncovered. But then after you open the door to the theater, you see another labyrinth before you, and come face-to-face with the game's true villain.

Returning to the dream world, you go through a cave and Murdaw's castle and defeat him. There are two worlds and you have covered around half the map in both of them. There's still a long way to go.

After spending about sixty hours assembling your party, gathering the plot coupons and doing some side quests, you go to confront Mordegon at Yggdrasil. He swats you aside and scatters the party, forcing you to assemble it all over again. The climactic fight against Mordegon. Enormous build-up? Check. Pants-wetting dungeon name (Fortress of Fear)? Check. Dark and gothic architecture and incredibly convoluted pathway? Check. Final boss using a mix of other boss techniques? Check. One-Winged Angel form? Check. Credit roll after the win? Check. But the alert player might notice that there's a major dangling plot thread (the Shadow Tocle) and tons of pastwords and monster entries you haven't yet found. You're actually maybe two-thirds of the way through the game, and it's about to get a lot harder.

Dagoth Gares takes up residence here, and will inflict the player with the Corprus Disease, setting off the rest of the main quest. Afterward, the game world changes significantly for the player.

Level 6 is the Technodrome. Prior to this, the Technodrome had always been the final level in any Ninja Turtles game. You fight Shredder at the end, beat him, rescue April...and then he runs away, giving you 2 more levels. Rahzar being the mini-boss with no sign of Tokkanote who shows up as the Level 7 Boss is your only hint. The Very Definitely Final Dungeon is Krang's spaceship. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time for the Super Nintendo does this as well, with again, the Technodrome. You face off against two bosses subsequently, Tokka and Rahzar and the Shredder as an inverted Background Boss. Seeing as the subtitle "Turtles in Time" is not an Artifact Title, there is still half the game left. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge does this, with yet again, the Technodrome. You battle General Traag in the middle of the level and eventually confront what seems to be Shredder, but it turns out to be Chrome Dome acting as a decoy. There's three more levels left. Story Mode makes this even more blatant, as the Dimension X map it's on is still mostly unexplored at that point.

Disc-One Final Dungeon / int_a6543322	comment	Touhou Project: Done rather comically in Touhou Koumakyou ~ the Embodiment of Scarlet Devil at stage 4, but only in Reimu's scenario, where she asks the boss if she's the mistress. The previous two games did have 6 stages, and the first game in the standard style had 5, but those may not have been familiar thanks to a Continuity Reboot and Sequel Displacement, the expected number of stages wasn't fully set in the still fledgling genre of Bullet Hell, and the level was indeed the longest in the game and by far the hardest to that point and didn't have the Mini-Boss return as the main boss as stage 1 and 3 had (and the latter didn't have the mini-boss return twice as some latter games would), and was finally inside the mansion which was your goal for the game. In Touhou Chireiden ~ Subterranean Animism, the stage 4 boss is indeed the mistress of the underworld spirits, but one of her pets is The Starscream. In many games (Touhou Koumakyou ~ the Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, Touhou Eiyashou ~ Imperishable Night, Touhou Fuujinroku ~ Mountain of Faith, Touhou Chireiden ~ Subterranean Animism, ''Touhou Seirensen ~ Undefined Fantastic Object), the final stage isn't in the enemy faction's fortress itself, but behind it, so the fortress could fool you. In the very early games, the Big Bad does appear in the second-to-last stage, but in Touhou Fuumaroku ~ the Story of Eastern Wonderland and Touhou Kaikidan ~ Mystic Square she drops The Dragon on you, and in Touhou Gensokyo ~ Lotus Land Story she survives to fight you again.

But then a new threat arises. And then the Emperor comes back from hell. The Tower of Zot in Final Fantasy IV. You've been everywhere in the overworld, all four known crystals have been accounted for, and you go to a futuristic tower that's not even on the World Map to attempt a Hostage for MacGuffin exchange and have a showdown with the Big Bad. Only afterwards do you learn about the underworld and the additional crystals. The Giant of Babil would also count except that you learn that Golbez is merely The Heavy just before going there, spoiling the effect. In Final Fantasy IV: The After Years, Golbez' tale starts in the previous game's final dungeon, and he even fights Zeromus as his end-of-chapter boss. Exdeath's Castle in Final Fantasy V. It's a large, terrifying castle where the Big Bad hangs out (complete with fleshy organ-like walls with ribcages and tortured fiends built right in!). You've already conquered the two worlds of the game and been everywhere, so it only seems natural that this'll be the site of the Final Boss battle; but when you finally destroy the shield surrounding it, fight your way to the top and clash with Exdeath himself, he completes his hitherto unknown plan to merge the two worlds together sending the light warriors unconscious away from the castle and with a whole new patchwork worldmap to explore. In Final Fantasy VI, the Floating Continent miles above the earth, where the assumed Big Bad, Gestahl, and his assumed Dragon, Kefka, are trying to get the powers of creation would seem like a final dungeon to most players. Of course, on its original release, the inclusion of a completely different Feelies map labeled "World of Ruin" was sort of a tip-off. The Northern Continent in Final Fantasy VII. You've already chased Sephiroth around the world, so it's easy to think that these ancient ruins could be the final showdown. Of course, this is barely the midpoint of the second of three disks. Final Fantasy VIII. Maybe we'll stop the sorceress by shooting her at the big parade. Nope, just kidding. Hey, giant showdown between our floating university and her floating university! Sounds like a climactic way to end the ga—no, just kidding. How about on this weird floaty "Lunatic Pandora" thing? Not quite, but getting there. The second one technically does involve the defeat of the villain, but you learn there that someone else was behind it all along. The entirety of Terra is a third disc final dungeon in Final Fantasy IX. This is where Kuja and The Chessmaster behind him are from, so it must be important, right? Zanarkand in Final Fantasy X. It's the end result of your very linear quest, with Big Bad Sin at the end of it, right? Hmm...well, not so much. Sin is, in fact, the final dungeon. Also made tricky by Tidus narrating the entire game in flashback form UP TO Zanarkand, which may lead you to think that when the flashback meets up with the current time, you're about to face your Final Boss... Final Fantasy XI: as an MMORPG with a few expansions by now, the plot has expanded as well — what used to be the final dungeon in the original game on release became the prerequisite for a new mission line that was made available when the 1st expansion was released. The Pharos Lighthouse in Final Fantasy XII. We're talking a 100-floor dungeon with all sorts of boss fights and a giant Green Rock at the top. Admittedly the real final dungeon is much smaller (you can't even save inside it) so it's more of an anticlimax. In Final Fantasy Tactics, the assault on Fort Zeakden is the final confrontation with the Death Corps and signifies a major turning point in Ramza's life (and depending on how much Level Grinding you did can be a serious challenge), but it's only the last battle in Chapter 1. It's also part of one giant flashback from Ramza, so really, no one should have been fooled in the first place, especially since the first battle in the game takes place a year after the Fort Zeakden battle. The run on the Palamecia halfway into Final Fantasy XIII has all the trappings of a final dungeon: a final powwow with your comrades before starting the mission, fast-paced music that plays continuously through exploration and battles, former bosses taking you on in groups, and so on. Finally, you get to the ship's bridge and prepare to face down the apparent Big Bad and his Dragon...Only to have the former kill the latter in front of you, allow you to "defeat" him (ostensibly to make sure that you're progressing fast enough to fit in with his plans), and then send you on your merry way to the Hungry Jungle you've been told is hell the entire game. And you unlock the ability to customize your party. Made more evident if one read the handbook, which has a section on cie'th missions for once you reach Pulse. And yes, it does say the missions are on Gran Pulse. Final Fantasy XIV: Happens repeatedly in the Heavensward expansion. First it occurs in the Aery. While it's betrayed by being a level 55 dungeon in a level 60 expansion, from a plot perspective it has all the markings. Its an ominous floating set of ruins concealed in a perpetual thunderstorm where the player goes to battle Nidhogg, the apparent Big Bad of the expansion. It even ends in Nidhogg's death! But then the larger conspiracy with the Corrupt Church comes into play. The following dungeon, the Vault, does this again, as the player storms the massive gothic church/tower in the centre of Ishgard's capital to take them down, but they end up fleeing. Finally the player catches up to them on a Floating Continent and battle them when they ascend to godhood. And despite this being the actual final boss of version 3.0, this trope plays again when it turns out that Nidhogg is Not Quite Dead, leading the plot to continue with Nidhogg as the actual Big Bad. The storyline did not come to a proper conclusion until patch 3.3. Each expansion from A Realm Reborn onward concludes with a Final Boss at the expansion's level cap, the Ultima Weapon and Lahabrea/Thancred in A Realm Reborn, King Thorden and the Knights of the Round in Heavensward, Shinryu/Zenos yae Galvus in Stormblood, Emet-Selch/Hades in Shadowbringers and Meteion/The Endsinger and Zenos viator Galvus in Endwalker. While many of the end game bosses after these encounters (like Extreme Primals and Alliance Raids) are technically Optional Bosses, the game's main scenario quest actually continues onward from this point, culminating in the lead up to the next expansion; Vishap at the Steps of Faith in A Realm Reborn, The Griffin/Ilberd Feare in Heavensward, The Ascian Elidibusnote Posessing the body of Zenos in Stormblood, The Telophoroi Primal Lunar Ifrit in Shadowbringers and Zeromus and a Giant Colibrinote Zeromus is the final boss of the 6.1-6.5 Void storyline, while the Colibri is the last fight of the expansion as a whole in Endwalker are the actual final bosses of their respective expansions. Happens with Shadowbringers with Mount Gulg, where the final Lightwarden resides; you'd think that defeating them would be the end, right? Only, you're level 79 in the level 80 expansion and there's one more zone you haven't explored... In Endwalker there is The tower of Babil, this is where the villains up to this point are based, so storming up should put a stop to them right? well you're only at level 83 and the level cap is 90 so you're not even close to the end.

Disc-One Final Dungeon / int_aba7ffb9	comment	The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel: Trails of Cold Steel II has everything leading up to the Infernal Castle with Class VII battling against all the opponents they fought up til then. Though after the Disc-One Final Boss, the chapter ends on a bitter note with Crow dying after the battle and Rean being infuriated that the target of Crow's efforts; Gilliath Osborn is still alive and revealed to be Rean's biological father. Afterwards, comes a chapter showing Crossbell's fallout from the events that occurred in Trails to Azure, immediately followed by the epilogue that sends Class VII on one last journey into the Old Schoolhouse for the proper sendoff of their graduation. Trails of Cold Steel III: The Dragon of Darkness is fought late in the game, beneath the imperial capital, and martial law will be declared on the day of the summer festival if the situation is not contained. Imposing name? Check. Significant location? Check. High stakes? Check. However, after you beat the boss, instead of resolving outstanding plot points you are encouraged to "enjoy the summer festival," work on your Relationship Values, and maybe do some side quests. Clearly, there is more to come.

The party's main objective is to aid Prince Richard in overthrowing his evil uncle and becoming king. At that point, you probably are around the level 20s, and are at least 10-15 hours in the came. The typical Tales Series average level should be around the 60s for the final boss, and about 30 or more hours depending on if you do sidequests or not. In addition, there are many unanswered questions as well, such as the mysterious origin of Sophie as well as Richard's peculiar and violent mood swings. So when the party does succeed, they discover that the new king is Ax-Crazy. Now the party's next objective to figure out what's going on and how to stop him. Then the game fools you again with the Lambda Cocoon dungeon. Sophie is ultimately prepared to make a Heroic Sacrifice to kill Lamda, who is currently possessing Richard and causing mayhem everywhere. After knocking Lamda out of his soul, just then the mysterious woman Emeruade, who has been quiet up until now, knocks out Sophie and absorbs Lambda herself. After ANOTHER boss fight, Richard escapes with Lambda.

Whether or not Silver Sonic surrenders the sixth and final Chaos Emerald when he is defeated depends on whether or not Sonic has the other five in his inventory. If Sonic does, then he has one last world to complete; Crystal Egg Zone (also resulting in the Happy Ending if Sonic completes it). If not, Sonic doesn't get to go to Crystal Egg Zone and the game ends on a sad note with Tails remaining Robotnik's prisoner. Sonic 3 & Knuckles: If you're playing Sonic 3 by itself, the last level you play is Launch Base Zone, Eggman's attempt at reactivating his Death Egg. However, this only the 6th level overall between both games. Sonic Heroes: Rail Canyon and Bullet Station seemingly have each team confront Eggman for a final confrontation. Nope, this was just a ruse and the Eggman you fight is Actually a Doombot used as a decoy as he mobilizes his armada, and Metal Sonic copies Sonic and Shadow's data for his endgame, and the second half of the game is stopping said armada.

The next is the Tyranno Lair: it seems as though your party is full, there are no more time periods to explore and that you're going to prevent this next apparent Big Bad from summoning Lavos, only for the game to reveal that Lavos is the meteor that wiped out the dinosaurs, and then the game sends you to 12,000 B.C.. The Ocean Palace is an even better fake-out — the music is ominous, you fight new enemy types, your party leader is close to acquiring his final ability (or does so during the dungeon), and you are going to go confront Queen Zeal, who is drawing on Lavos's power — and possibly face Lavos himself when she summons him. And it is all a fakeout. Lavos is a Hopeless Boss Fight, and not only beats down the party (and Magus, who tries to confront him), but kills Crono — there's not even a body left when Lavos is through with him. At this point, the final portion of the game begins, and the player finally starts changing history for the better.

Disc-One Final Dungeon / int_d57d722e	comment	Ōkami does this twice. The game leads you to believe that Orochi is responsible for all the evil present in the world, and the supposed final dungeon is Moon Cave. But it's only all the evil represented in a small area of the world. Exploring the rest of the world leads to Oni Island, and an epic dungeon where you meet the Lord Of Darkness. Surely that's the end? No, that's 2/3 of the game. Only when reaching the Ark of Yamato, home of Yami, you're finally on the true last stage.

You have chased the Lens all over the world, tracked it down with the aid of numerous friends, fought several hard boss battles, and go through the end sequence...only to find out that half of the events of said end sequence were a Xanatos Gambit by one of your allies to imprison the Empathic Weapons and the Lens just got used in the NEXT superweapon of doom. Made more effective by the fact that the game is only one disk, and the Lens quest takes a while and involves everything on the box and previews.

And you unlock the ability to customize your party. Made more evident if one read the handbook, which has a section on cie'th missions for once you reach Pulse.

After the four elemental temple dungeons are conquered and their corresponding new Sages are christened as such, Link and Purah sight Princess Zelda in the castle, so the young hero heads there in an attempt to finally reunite with her. However, after trying to reach the princess in several parts of the castle and defeating hordes of enemies in the process, Link discovers that the person he (and many other characters) though to be Zelda is revealed to be Phantom Ganon in disguise, prompting a boss battle (much longer than the usual fights against him that ensue when Link defeats a group of Gloom Hands). Completing Hyrule Castle leads to a plot-critical reveal that prompts an additional Story Arc in search for a fifth Sage, thus postponing the quest to find and defeat Ganondorf.

Disc-One Final Dungeon / int_f6a54e75	comment	Kingdom Hearts: Kingdom Hearts has Hollow Bastion, Maleficent's stronghold and the former home of Sora's allies, which has a really climactic feel to it. After fighting Maleficent herself, you have a showdown with your rival that might as well have been the final boss fight for its difficulty and plot importance. This is, of course, nowhere near the end of the game, although it's a good fakeout. Similar thing happens in Kingdom Hearts Re:coded. At the end of Hollow Bastion (again), you have to purge Data-Riku's body out of bugs (long story). You do that by entering other worlds and removing bug blox from them. Once all is done, you fight Dragon Maleficent, play a mini-game, then battle Sequential Boss that looks like the Final Boss... But it is not, as there is still Castle Oblivion and Final Boss to beat. Kingdom Hearts II has an interesting variant on this trope. Throughout most of the game, Hollow Bastion (now on its way to becoming a populated town again) has served as the Hub Level, but halfway through the story The War Sequence begins and the plot twists are tossed out left and right. There's even a short confrontation with the Big Bad. But when all is said and done, this is only the halfway point in the game; you have to go through every world one more time before the true final world. Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep has Keyblade Graveyard, which actually is the Final Dungeon for Terra and Ventus' campaigns. For Aqua, however, there are a couple more things to do after that. Her final boss is fought in, ironically, Hollow Bastion (or rather, Radiant Garden). The Final Mix Updated Re-release demotes Radiant Garden to this status again, as it lengthens Aqua's campaign with an additional chapter in the Realm of Darkness.

And it could have been the final dungeon itself if the developers felt like ending the game there, since the plot of the second disc centers around a mostly unrelated threat. Wild ARMs 3 does this twice. The first time you get to the top of Yggdrassil, defeat the Prophets and stop them from summoning the demons. But wait! The demon gets summoned anyway, and the game continues! The second time you get to the control room of Deus ex Machina, defeat the demon (and then again in a cool air battle), and watch Deus Ex Machina explode. But wait! There was yet another The Man Behind the Man behind The Man Behind the Man (Siegfried) behind The Man Behind the Man (the prophets) behind the original Big Bad (Janus). Cue more game.

Disc-One Final Dungeon / int_ff9ca30	comment	Pirate Homeworld in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. Hyped a lot for being the native planet of the Space Pirates, the Galactic Federation preparing a full-scale assault on them, and housing the final Leviathan Seed which is guarded by Omega Ridley, the Phazon-enhanced form of Samus Aran's nemesis. But after all of that, Samus still has to find her Evil Counterpart, Dark Samus, who is revealed to not be there.
