Bosses (SF3)

Bosses are strong enemies in Shadow Fight 3. They are more difficult compared to normal opponents, as they have high-tier equipment, good combos, and strong shadow abilities. Each boss has their own unique way of fighting, with some of them utilizing special abilities that are exclusive to them. Boss fights require three rounds to be won instead of the usual two, and defeating them will reward the players with 5 gems, along with other rewards. They are fought at the end of each level.
