In Hades, Zagreus must navigate through the netherworld, so he can escape to the surface and reunite with his mother, Persephone. As Zagreus is about to leave the Elysium section, he's confronted by Theseus and Asterius the Minotaur.

Although the sluggish man-bull telegraphs his attacks, you can’t risk being hit once since his assaults are devastating. Despite the fact you can see his moves coming a mile away, it’s still tough to avoid, since Theseus will be on your ass from beginning to end.

Because Theseus always has his shield up, half his body is permanently guarded, allowing the Athenian king to absorb your greatest strikes. It's crucial to take out the Minotaur first, since Theseus’ attacks become less predictable once he’s at mid-health.

Sadly, you haven’t seen the end of this duo after you beat them. Since you'll have little health after this brawl, you're sure to meet your doom in the next arena. When you die, you'll be sent back to the start, meaning you have to fight Theseus and the Minotaur again and again. By the time you complete the game, you’ll have encountered these bosses at least a dozen times.
