All Bosses in Mortal Shell 2
Every boss, where it waits, and what beating it pays out. Each one gates something — a Shell, a Seal, a lever — so this doubles as the order the game expects you to take them in.

How boss fights work
A boss is not a health bar you outlast. Health and Break run as two separate meters, and the second is the one that ends fights: land your Seal's defence at the right moment, fill the Break meter, and the opening you get is a Riposte that costs the boss more than a minute of chip damage would.
Almost every boss gates something — a Shell, a Seal, a lever, a weapon — so the drops list is also the progression map. If you are stuck on where to go next, the boss you have not beaten is usually holding it.
Learn the Seal, not the bossGuard, Parry and Harden each have a different window. Most fights that feel impossible are a timing you have not settled on yet.
The ending is in this listFive of these are endgame bosses and every one is tagged. Nothing about the last hours of the game is stated in a row you did not open.
Some fights are scriptedAt least one boss ends in a cutscene whatever you do. Losing is not always losing.
