'''Dark Ganon''' is the very final boss in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''. [[Ganon]]'s spirit has escaped to [[Hyrule Field (Breath of the Wild)|Hyrule Field]] and manifests into its true form: Dark Beast Ganon. A pure embodiment of [[Malice]] and Hatred, it is a gigantic boar similar to Ganon's appearance in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]''. [[Zelda (Breath of the Wild)|Princess Zelda]] states that Ganon has given up on reincarnation to create this form, intending to release the full force of its wrath upon the world. Now that it is free from the prison of [[Hyrule Castle (Breath of the Wild)|Hyrule Castle]], Ganon will do exactly that unless stopped.

The final battle will begin and Link will ride over to collect the [[Bow of Light]]. This will allow Link to fire [[Light Arrow]]s. Best of all, he has unlimited ammunition while using it.
The final battle will begin and Link will ride over to collect the [[Bow of Light]]. This will allow Link to fire [[Light Arrow]]s. Best of all, he has unlimited ammunition while using it. However, it's not actually mandatory to use it. The [[Twilight Bow]] will also work, and can be situationally more useful due to the lack of arrow dropoff, as will the [[Master Sword]]'s Sword Beams if Link can keep himself at max HP. [[Ancient Arrow]]s also work and can be shot from whatever bow you have on hand, though this is only viable if you have enough ammunition in reserve. Any others weapons are ineffective.


Dark Beast Ganon, for as intimidating as it looks, does not have much in the form of attacks. It will occasionally shoot out a beam of fire from its mouth. As long as you are not riding directly in front of the Dark Beast, you should be safe. When the battle begins, just ride around until Princess Zelda talks to you.

Zelda will hold the [[Malice]] back, creating glowing areas for Link to shoot his Light Arrows. Ride around on horseback and shoot the beast down with arrows. Three glowing spots will appear at first, and then three more will appear shortly after. After Link has hit six spots on the Dark Beast, the next one will appear underneath its belly.

Once last glowing area will appear, this time on an eye that appears on top of Ganon's forehead. However, when you shoot the arrow at the eye, it will close the eye, preventing you from hitting it. Zelda will soon give you the advice that you should use its attacks to your advantage. When Ganon attacks, a massive updraft will appear right in front of it. Run over and jump into the updraft, using the [[Paraglider]] to glide up. Alternatively, if the updraft does not form, using [[Revali's Gale]] will be effective in taking to the sky. Then, pull out your bow and in slow motion, loose the final Light Arrow to defeat the beast.

You must use a bow for this last step and must shoot in midair; if you are not in bullet time (which will always be the case with Master Sword Beams), Ganon will close his eye before the attack lands and it will fail.
