We're back to Revelations once again, with yet another oceanic nightmare of titanic proportions. Mr. Jack Norman, or as he's known in his inhuman form, Ultimate Abyss, is the final boss of the game, and as you'd expect, he's one tough cookie.

This guy embodies all of the hallmarks you'd associate with the usual Tyrant enemies, but with a much bigger bag of tricks. Not simply content with stomping towards you like his predecessors, he can teleport around the room at an alarmingly fast rate, forcing you to completely rethink your positioning and leaving you with very little time to fight back.

He's also capable of creating clones of himself which, if you're truly unlucky, can lead to you being sandwiched between them and in the prime-position for a world of hurt.

Getting around his incredibly tough move-set takes some practice to get it right, but once you find your groove, this battle becomes an enjoyably tense affair that keeps you on tender-hooks the whole way through.

Ultimate Abyss is a genuinely challenging fight that asks a lot of the player, but the sweet satisfaction you'll get from taking him down is nigh-on unparalleled in the rest of the series.
