10 Open-World Video Game Bosses You MUST Fight

9. Silver Lynel - The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild

Easily one of the most highly acclaimed games of all time, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is a masterfully crafted title; one that got the Nintendo Switch off to the best possible start.

For the franchise's first foray into the open world genre, it knocked it out of the park.

Breath of the Wild offers total freedom in its open world, allowing the player to tackle enemies, shrines and bosses in any order they wish. For the most part, the game will adapt to these choices and offer greater challenges the further along you get.

Once you've powered up Link and awakened a Great Beast or Two, the enemies scale up further, culminating in the elusive Silver Lynel. These are the toughest variants of the dangerous Centaurs. Having been imbued with Calamity Ganon's magic, they offer a tough challenge for even the most seasoned players.

The location of the Silver Lynels across the map can vary depending on your game progress though generally they can be found in the Akala Wildlands and the North Tabantha Snowfield. These formidable foes have a massive health pool and incredibly fast attacks that require near perfect dodging. Be sure to go prepared if you plan on hunting them.
