10 Most Satisfying Final Boss Kills In Gaming History
6. Asav - Uncharted: Lost Legacy
Uncharted has never done villains anywhere near as good as its heroes. Navarro, Lazarevic, That Teleporting Guy From 3 or the smarmy Rafe - they're all fairly mundane or serviceable, and not much more.
Enter Asav - someone who isn't a major cut above the rest, but plays out the "calculating villain slowly losing his cool" trope with expert precision, and gets wiped out in grand fashion.
Played with such genuine frustration by Usman Ally, a signature Naughty Dog "playable cutscene" has you go through the revamped train level from Uncharted 2 - now done with Uncharted 4's physics and greater gameplay possibilities.
It's a phenomenal sequence, and with Asav having rigged a bomb on the train to trigger civil war if it reaches the capital, dropping in to face him as both Chloe and Nadine together feels brilliant.
Animated perfectly, the braun of Nadine and precision fighting of Chloe give Asav a battering, before leaving him to explode in the fiery wreckage of his own doing, as the pair watch the sun set on a city saved.
