Souls Like Bosses
Souls Like Bosses adds Dark Souls style boss fights that players meet inside structures scattered around the world.
What it does
Boss encounters are placed inside custom structures generated in the world, so players run into them while exploring. The mod depends on AttributeFix and Huge Structure Blocks, and both must be installed alongside it. Because the bosses use large structures, the game needs at least 6 GB of allocated memory.
A lite build exists that integrates only the bosses and their custom structures. Behavior and health values can be adjusted through a helper datapack, and a set of commands controls whether bosses are frozen and how many health points each one has. Carpet Mod can be added to allow one versus one mob battles. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too.
Files are published for Fabric, Forge and Quilt, all for 1.20.1, with version 3.2 as the latest file. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source, and it was first published on 2025-01-06 and last updated on 2026-03-03.
