How to Unlock The Secret Boss Battle in Loop Hero

There are four different chapters for players to complete throughout the course of Loop Hero. Each one of these chapters provides its own unique challenges that the player must fight their way through if they hope to progress. Even if they do make it to the end of the chapter though they then must face off against one of the game’s bosses, which are incredibly difficult to defeat.

What many players may not realize though is that there is actually another secret boss hidden in the game that can be summoned whenever the player wishes. This secret boss though is one of the game’s most difficult enemies and even those who know what they are doing will probably find themselves having trouble bringing it down. On top of this though it’s almost as difficult to summon the being as it is to defeat it. This guide shows players how to summon the secret boss.

Loop Hero – How to Summon Secret Boss

Summoning the boss is pretty tough because the game never walks the player through how to do it exactly, and the player must complete a few different steps first to make it work. First and foremost they must have completed chapter two before making an attempt, which means that the player has to have beaten both The Lich and The Priestess. Once done they can then begin setting up their loop to try and summon the boss.

In order to make the next part work, the player will need to set up a U-shaped section of their loop so that several effects will all combine on a single tile in the middle. There are probably actually several different ways to make this part work, but this guide is going to lay out a tried and true method of summoning the boss. The first thing that the player will need to do is place a Battlefield, Chrono Crystals, and Vampire Mansion in a row as the base of the U. The player will then need to place a Beacon and a Temporal Beacon as the “arms” of the U.

After this has been done the player should leave an empty path in between the base of the U and an Outpost tile. They will know if this has been done correctly if blue sparks start appearing on the empty path. The next loop that the player takes through this pathway will summon the boss. Keep in mind though that this can only be done either before or after the current chapter’s boss has spawned.

Loop Hero can be played on PC.
