10 Terrifying Dark Souls 3 Bosses We Can't Wait To Fight

4. High Lord Wolnir

One of the most brilliantly spine-tingling moments in the original Dark Souls 3 trailer was a shot of some poor adventurer walking through a dark, dingy chamber with a torch, when suddenly a giant floating skull emerges out of the darkness and hovers towards them. Meet High Lord Wolnir, a colossal shambling skeleton who may not be the most original boss in gaming, but is undeniably menacing. Judging by his publicity shots, Wolnir doesn't seem to have a lower half to his body, shambling around using his arms and at the same time trying to swing a sword at you. Though judging by the above shot, it almost seems like's he's just a floating head; perhaps he can be assembled and disassembled like a Lego man, which would make him even more menacing seeing as we all know such things are basically indestructible. Don't let his shambling, pained form fool you though. These Dark Souls bosses have a penchant for looking like they're in excruciating agony while being absolutely lethal. In fact, it's almost as if their turmoil fuels their rage and prowess in battle, and something tells us that this guy is no exception.
