List of final bosses

A final boss is the last boss in the game's main quest. After its defeat, the ending cutscene and credits will play. In some games the player can still do post-ending optional content by loading their save from a completed game file. A common theme among the final bosses is that they wish to destroy all existence and return the world to a state of nothingness.

Final Fantasy
The final boss is Chaos. When the Warriors of Light killed Garland, the Four Fiends sent him into the past. There, Garland absorbed their power to become Chaos and sent the Fiends of the past into the future, creating a time loop that granted Garland immortality. The Warriors of Light travel back in time to kill the original Four Fiends and ultimately destroy Chaos to close the loop.

Soul of Rebirth
The final boss is the Emperor of Heaven and the lord of Arubboth. He explains that when Firion and his allies killed him, his soul was split into two. The Emperor's "dark half" fell to Hell and acquired more power, while his light half - the Emperor they now see - ascended to Heaven. Knowing that this Emperor is no different from the other, Minwu, Josef, Scott and Ricard defeated the Light Emperor. As he dies, he tells them the struggles of violence and war will continue as long as humans exist.

Final Fantasy III
The final boss is the Cloud of Darkness. When Xande attempts to destroy the Crystals to freeze time so he would never die, he created an imbalance in light and darkness. This imbalance summoned the Cloud of Darkness, whose sole purpose is to return everything to nothingness when the balance is disrupted.

However, Zeromus claims he cannot die, for he will exist as long as hatred lurks in the hearts of men.

Final Fantasy IV -Interlude-
The final boss is Rydia?. Appearing within the Sealed Cave, Cecil and his allies mistake her for the real Rydia and take her to the Tower of Babil, where she gains the power to summon Rydia's Eidolons and then vanishes. Followed further up the tower she is revealed as an imposter by Edge and attacks the party with the Eidolons, eventually calling Bahamut. However, the real Rydia arrives to call Bahamut to his senses with the Mist Dragon, and the group defeat her.

Final Fantasy IV: The After Years
The final boss is the Creator. It occupies the True Moon, which it utilizes as a vessel for interstellar travel. Concerned about whether or not evolution was a necessity and wishing to conduct experiments regarding the evolution of life, it created a host of Crystals capable of recording the history of a world and distributed them upon planets which held the promise of life, including the Blue Planet. It has since deemed the races of the Blue Planet failures and returned to reclaim the Crystals and exterminate all life on the planet.

The party confronts the Creator in a multitude of forms as its life support systems eventually malfunction and cause it to mutate and lose control of its senses. After the Creator's defeat, the party flees the True Moon as he attempts to destroy them, the Maenads aiding in their escape, and the True Moon departs the planet in peace.

Final Fantasy V
The final boss is Neo Exdeath. When Exdeath merged the two worlds together to unleash the powers of the Void, he entered its deepest depths and attempted to seize control of it.

The party first engages Exdeath in his true form as an evil, sentient tree, and upon his defeat Exdeath is consumed by the Void and transforms into Neo Exdeath.

The player must first fight Jenova∙SYNTHESIS, the final Jenova spawn, before being drawn into the deepest part of the cave to engage Sephiroth as Bizarro∙Sephiroth.

After Safer∙Sephiroth is defeated, there is one final battle against Sephiroth fought one-on-one with Cloud, but is largely a scripted encounter and cannot be lost.

Before Crisis -Final Fantasy VII-
The final boss is Zirconiade. A so-called "Ultimate Summon", Zirconiade can only be summoned with four support Materia, in the meantime draining the life energy of AVALANCHE's leader Elfe, who had Zirconiade's Materia implanted in her hand by Professor Hojo. Fuhito, AVALANCHE's scientist, plans to use Zirconiade to eradicate all life on the planet and return their energy to the Lifestream so it can heal from Shinra's damaging influence.

With the combined efforts of the Turks, their former leader Veld, and Elfe's second-in-command Shears, the Turks gather the four support Materia, which are seized by Fuhito.

Human and cured of his degradation, Genesis challenges Zack to a final duel, and is struck down. There is a final enemy encounter after the battle, but it is scripted and the player's actions do not effect the outcome, so the battles with Genesis are the final challenge.

Final Fantasy VIII
The final boss is Ultimecia. Manipulating the events of the present from the future to find Ellone and enact Time compression, Ultimecia's ultimate desire is to absorb all time and space and become an omnipotent god.

The player first battles Ultimecia in normal human form, and when defeated she summons Griever to battle the party. When Griever is defeated Ultimecia junctions herself to it, creating a hybrid of the two. When this fusion of Ultimecia and Griever is defeated, Ultimecia herself in her final form is fought.

Final Fantasy IX
The final boss is Necron. Distraught over his mortality and unwilling to let life continue without him, Kuja intends to destroy the Crystal that is the source of all life deep within Memoria. Necron takes this as evidence that all life exists only to die, and mankind is ready to accept this truth and return to nothingness, where they will not know the fear and despair that drove Kuja to such extreme lengths.

The party must first fight Trance Kuja. Upon his defeat he casts Ultima, killing the party and sending them to Necron's realm, the Hill of Despair, where Necron is fought.

With his defeat, Sin is destroyed for good and Spira's cycle of death ends.

During the battle against Lahabrea, the player party receives a powerful blessing from the Mothercrystal which makes the fight considerably easier than the three battles preceding it, as Lahabrea has limited attack range and power as well as a lower HP total compared to the previous bosses, making the Ultima Weapon that last notable challenge of the story. However, unlike previous "scripted" final battles such as Yu Yevon, it is still possible, albeit unlikely, to lose this fight.
