When it comes to heroes, it cannot be denied that some end up with a set of powers that by all means should make them god-like in terms of power. Much like a god, it becomes terrifying when The Hero of the story finally snaps or succumbs to their personal issues, is Slowly Slipping Into Evil, is corrupted by an artifact or being possessed by the Big Bad or their powers end up spiralling out of control, etc. Their allies (if any exist) are now forced to deal with a threat more powerful than any other and one who is very close to their hearts. Depending on the story, their allies may get through to The Hero and revert them to normal or be forced to deliver a Mercy Kill to save everyone else or something in between. The main character doesn't have to become a villain for this to happen, though some main characters do undergo Big Bad Slippage or start Slowly Slipping Into Evil which may cause them to become the final boss of their own story. |

South Park: The Fractured but Whole: Downplayed. The first phase of the final boss is the New Kid's past self in their King Douchebag persona from the previous game, South Park: The Stick of Truth, accompanied by Clyde, Craig, and Kyle (and, during the last phase, Butters), which is often considered the hardest boss in the game. The real final boss, present Cartman and Kyle using the former's Mitch Conner persona, is more of a Post-Final Boss in comparison. | |

Flawed Crystals: The final boss is Steven Universe himself after succumbing to his corruption. Your party members can fight Steven and eventually kill him, but doing so nets you the bad ending. The Talk option plays a key role in this battle, and each character has dialogue choices they can choose from. If they try to plead with Steven and use the Power of Love, Steven will insult your party members in ways personal to them and that party member ends up getting debuffed. However, if you choose to call Steven out on his cowardly and selfish fantasties he created in Rose's Room, Steven will feel awful and you'll be a step closer to freeing him from his corruption. Once all party members have called Steven out, he'll spam Dying of the Light on your party with only Jasper maintaining her form out of sheer determination. At this point, you can still kill Steven or have Jasper show empathy which will allow Steven to be free of his corruption. | |

By the time the partner finds Mewtwo at the end, the latter resorts to fighting them to force them to go away, serving as the last challenge. | |

Puyo Puyo Tetris: Tee is the main protagonist on the Tetris side, being introduced as a calm and stoic character who is very good at Tetris. Come the seventh chapter (which is the final chapter of the main story), and he wants to take Ex's place as Keeper of Dimensions, his reasoning in the Japanese version being him thinking that it would be better if he'd be trapped instead of Ex. The final battle has you playing as Ringo as she battles Tee to snap him out of this mindset.note You do have to fight Tee as the final boss again in the tenth chapter, the last of the DLC chapters, but 1) This takes place in a dream, and 2) This is a reenactment of Tee and Ex's first meeting back when the latter was the Tetris King. | |

Attack on Titan: Eren becomes the Big Bad after he convinces Ymir Fritz to give him the full power of the Founding Titan, intending to wipe out all of civilization outside of Paradis Island so they won't exterminate his people, and it's revealed that he's been planning this all along via a Stable Time Loop by influencing the previous wielders of the Attack Titan's power. The endgame revolves around Eren's former comrades teaming up with Marley's remaining Titan Shifters in order to put a stop to him. | |

In the final level, it's revealed she's actually Dream Sumireko who mistakenly believes she's the real one. The real Sumireko appears in the last level, and then you play as her to fight the Dream Sumireko. | |

Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow: In a unique twist on the extra character modes which had become series standard by this point, Julius Mode is unlocked via the bad ending, and continues on from it. In the bad ending, Soma fully embraces his inner darkness and becomes Dracula, upon which Julius, Yoko, and Alucard resolve to stop him. Julius Mode swaps to the perspective of Julius and his companions, and upon making it to the centre of the Abyss, they confront Soma and are forced to fight him as their final enemy. In a rather dark take on this trope, not only are they forced to Mercy Kill Soma, there is also the implication that he will eventually resurrect fully as Dracula, starting the vicious cycle all over again. | |

Mana Khemia: Alchemists of Al-Revis: The main protagonist Vayne Aurelis has powers that are very destructive, enough so that they can warp reality. If the player spends the entire game making Vayne antisocial and sleeping away all their free time instead of doing quests to strengthen bonds with other party members; they'll be on route to the bad ending route where he himself is the final boss. On the good ending paths, Vayne is only the first form but is eventually freed so he can fight the Crazed Eye -the embodiment of his power- as the second form of the final boss. | |

In Library of Ruina, the two Downer Ending routes have main character Roland as the Black Silence acting as the final boss, revealing himself to have been planning Angela's destruction as revenge ever since the start of the game, and that his friendly, carefree attitude was merely a facade. The Golden Ending route, however, subverts this as Angela and Roland forgive each other and the True Final Boss is a One-Winged Angel rematch against the Reverb Ensemble. | |

Middle-earth: Shadow of War: At the end of the Blade of Galadriel DLC, previous player character and protagonist Talion, after spending most of the game working alongside new player character Eltariel, and helping her defeat the rogue Nazgul (in addition to spending literal decades earlier fighting and dividing the Orcs of Mordor to prevent either Sauron or Celebrimbor uniting them to take over Middle-Earth), finally falls to the corrupting will of his Nazgul Ring of Power (helped along by lingering anger and resentment towards Eltariel for being the reason why he's a Nazgul now), and turns against his former friend and starts fighting her. Talion is the final enemy you have to fight in that DLC, solidly reminding players that the hero we once knew is no more. | |

Pony POV Series: Nightmare Eclipse is the final boss of the Dark World arc. She is a future version of Twilight, a corrupted alicorn who has learned time magic and is using it to keep the Dark World timeline in a 1,000-year "Groundhog Day" Loop to punish Discord — the former Big Bad — for all eternity. Every time the current Twilight and her friends have defeated Discord, Nightmare Eclipse finds some way to corrupt that Twilight into another Nightmare Eclipse, absorbs her to increase her own power, and then begins the loop again with new versions of Twilight and her friends. After defeating her and finally breaking the loop, Twilight fuses with her to become a fully ascended alicorn: Princess Amicitia. | |

OFF: This is played straight if you choose to betray The Batter in favour of taking The Judge's side. For the entire game, you played as The Batter and have been helping him to purify the world, even as the dark implications of your holy task are brought to light. During the final boss fight, The Batter's final boss state is portrayed as a monstrous creature with an elongated mouth filled with teeth. However, if you choose to follow through with your holy quest to purify the world and side with your puppet until the end, this trope is averted. | |

Touhou Project: In games with versus mode, each playable character has a story route, including the usual Final Boss. They then usually fight series protagonist Reimu Hakurei as their final opponent, making her the True Final Boss of the game. This happens in Touhou Suimusou ~ Immaterial and Missing Power, Touhou Kaeidzuka ~ Phantasmagoria of Flower View, Touhou Hisouten ~ Scarlet Weather Rhapsody, Touhou Shinkirou ~ Hopeless Masquerade, and Touhou Juuouen ~ Unfinished Dream of All Living Ghost. In Double Spoiler ~ Touhou Bunkachou, you play the entire game as Aya, except for the final level. In the first three rounds, you still play as Aya fighting new character Hatate. But in the last three rounds, you fight Aya as Hatate instead. After this, you unlock the ability to play as Hatate in previous levels. In Hifuu Nightmare Diary ~ Violet Detector, you're playing as Sumireko who is trapped in a dream, fighting against the other characters' dream selves. In the final level, it's revealed she's actually Dream Sumireko who mistakenly believes she's the real one. The real Sumireko appears in the last level, and then you play as her to fight the Dream Sumireko. |

The Last of Us Part II: It's played straight at first with the end of Abby's three-day plotline concluding with a boss battle against the game's main protagonist Ellie. After a Time Skip, it's zigzagged as the protagonist Ellie then pursues Abby to California, and her final battle is Abby. | |

The Legend of Dark Witch 2 has Zizou as the main protagonist and final boss (of Sola's story). Unlike the previous game, she simply accepts her defeat simply because Sola isn't a villain (and Zizou had already taken care of the Big Bad anyway.) | |

The Legend of Dark Witch 3 has Zizou as the main protagonist and final boss (of Day's story). After being defeated, Zizou lets her sister Mati fight Day instead of attacking with her full power. Justified because it's implied that Zizou had already taken care of Simeone like in her story and that she and Mati were stalling for time until Day's friends arrive to convince her to stop her quest for revenge. | |

Game of Thrones: An interesting case. The show slowly consolidated its cast until it was following three storylines and had a protagonist or two for each, with Jon Snow in the North, Jaime Lannister in the South, and Daenerys Targaryen in Essos, eventually culminating in all parties meeting and (briefly) allying to fight the Night King. Once the Night King is dealt with, however, the show frames Cersei Lannister as the final villain, only for Daenerys Targaryen to dive headfirst off the slippery slope in the runup to the Battle of King's Landing and completely ransack the city, killing innocents and burning the city to the ground, making her the show's true last antagonist that Jon has to kill. | |

The Legend of Dark Witch has Zizou as the main protagonist and final boss (of Riva's story), winning out in both her and Riva's endings (using blackmail to force Riva to stand down after getting her ass kicked) | |

Dexter: New Blood: Dexter Morgan is the villain protagonist of both Dexter and its sequel series, New Blood. New Blood ends with Dexter as the final boss, and he is killed by his son Harrison after murdering Logan to escape justice for his crimes. However, Dexter allowed this to happen so that his son could live a life free of Dexter's crimes; it's also implied that he would eventually be revealed as the Bay Harbor Butcher. | |

In Cry of Fear, the final boss is either the imaginary Simon that the player has been controlling throughout the game, or the real wheelchair-bound Simon, depending on earlier choices. | |

Dragon Ball: The end of the Pilaf saga sees Goku's first on-screen transformation into a Great Ape, which breaks the gang out of the prison that Pilaf has placed them in following their thwarting of his plans... but since Goku has lost his ability to distinguish friend from foe, now they have to figure out how to change him back before he kills them anyway. | |

Steven Universe: Future: The combination of everyone no longer needing him, Steven's own crisis about what he's supposed to do now that everyone no longer needs him, and his bottled-up trauma from the entire franchise causes him to spiral into a complete mental breakdown where he sees himself as a monster — and because his powers are so entwined with his emotional and mental state, this causes him to turn into an actual monster, blinded by rage and completely unable to be reasoned with. It takes his family restraining him in a hug and reaffirming to him that he's not a monster for Steven to return to normal. | |

Live A Live: Oersted, the protagonist of the unlockable chapter "The Middle Ages", loses everything at the end of the chapter after being betrayed by the people he thought were his friend and lover. He then calls himself "Odio" and vows to take revenge on mankind, sending an incarnation of himself bearing the name "Odio" as the final boss of the previous chapters. He also appears in the Final Chapter "The Dominion of Hate" as either the protagonist who sets out to Make Wrong What Once Went Right by taking control of the other bosses or as the final boss of the game. The HD-2D remake adds a third form for the final boss called Sin of Odio, which allows Oersted to finally redeem himself by separating himself from the embodiment of his hate and being the one to destroy it. | |

My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Friendship Games: Downplayed. Human Twilight Sparkle, the Alternate Self of Princess Twilight Sparkle (protagonist of the parent series My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the first two Equestria Girls films), is set up as the Deuteragonist, as she is the most sympathetic of the Crystal Prep students, has an arc about discovering magic and friendship, and slowly becomes friends with the main cast. But Peer Pressure Makes You Evil plus Curiosity Is a Crapshoot causes her to unleash the magic she's been inadvertently collecting, turning her into the mad-with-power Midnight Sparkle. Sunset Shimmer and Spike manage to turn her back with an "I Know You're in There Somewhere" Fight. | |

Fortunately for you, Terry himself is a Zero-Effort Boss because he has no actual means to fight back. | |
