There’s no better feeling than completing level after level and FINALLY coming to that one boss fight you’ve been working towards.

But what about the bosses that aren’t waiting for you to work your way through the game?

Franchises from Mortal Kombat to Mario have included secret bosses, and gamers have dedicated hours to tracking them down. It’s always fun when you stumble upon a secret boss, and normally they have a cool reward like a high-powered weapon or a new skill.

At the very least, you get a sense of achievement and some bragging rights. And really, isn’t that reward enough?

Secret bosses can be great, but then again, they can suck. You know the ones, the spend three hours searching the map only to look up an internet guide and yet you STILL can’t find them kind of ones. Or the level 99 boss you find at level 12, kills you instantly and sends you right back to your last save point ones.

Love them or hate them, secret boss encounters can be some of the most memorable experiences in gaming.

8. South Park: The Fractured But Whole - Morgan Freeman

Morgan Freeman is one of the most beloved actors of modern Hollywood, but that doesn't stop South Park: Fractured But Whole from letting you challenge him to a fight.

Freeman's role in the game is to teach players about crafting items and how to enhance the players powers. Since he helps the player it's not obvious that he's actually a secret boss.

Triggering this fight is pretty simple, all you have to do is go behind the counter of his taco shop and punch him three times to begin the fight. However, he won't fight the player unless the character is white. If you need to, you can change your race by speaking to PC Principal, first he'll teach you about micro-aggressions, then after you've checked a few peoples privileges you'll be able to change your race.

Morgan Freeman is an incredibly powerful enemy, so you need to be prepared for a difficult fight. It’s wise to stock up on Max Revives ands Max Antidotes, as well as having unlocked all your TimeFart powers.

You should make sure your character has the best set of Artefacts you have equipped before challenging everyones favourite actor and taco salesman.
