A new report from this week’s Jump magazine out of Japan has detailed another bonus coming to Final Fantasy X|X-2 HD Remaster in the form of a once PAL version/International version exclusive superboss.

The enemy known as Penance – or Der Richter in the Japanese, French and German versions of the game – will be released once all of the Dark Aeons are defeated in the game. Sporting a massive 12,000,000 HP count as well as high stats and powerful attacks, downing Penance will be no easy feat.

Final Fantasy X and X-2 HD will be on one blu-ray disc for PlayStation 3, but the PlayStation Vita versions will be sold separately when it launches in Japan on December 26th. A North American and European date is still penned in for “this Winter.”

 

I'f heard of penance, that dude kicks ass, i never played enough of the game to beat the aeons though... since first time i completed it was about a year ago and it was because i couldnt wait for this version.

 

supposedly even if youve maxed out your spheregrid, you can be killed within 7+ turns of starting the battle, or something like that relatively easily according to a video guide i watched awhile ago.

Isnt every secret boss in every RPG in history a joke when you grind to max level?

 

Unless it requires an intricate strategy like the boss fights for BBS.

Well yes, but penance was just really unfair. Some people dont even bother since a lot of the battle requires luck a lot like the osma battle in ff 9, the boss also takes hours to beat so losing because he pulls some random move and wipes out your party is a pain, there are some methods you can use to beat him, but without some kind of strategy being maxed out will get you no where.

Huh.  Seems like there's another challenge to look forward to in X.

At first: Sounds fun

After reading other comments: OwO Sounds worse than Dullahan....

I'm glad. secret bosses are always awesome to try to beat

This sounds like the Vercingetorix secret boss in XIII, that was a pain. This also sounds like THE FREAKING HARD ASS FIGHT WITH SNOW IN XIII-2(DLC). Vercingetorix was easy after i used the strategy to Poison him and make it so he doesnt heal himself by using Vanille's summon and dragging out the battle. But Snow was a huge pain, and i had to put the difficulty on easy to beat him. -__-

WOW. Definitely more excited! Love taking on the Dark Aeons, hopefully I can max out my grid by the time I get to it.

This was confirmed months ago by Square Enix when they announced it. They stated all PAL/International content will be included. And yes....this is the hardest boss in FINAL FANTASY history......I'd wager Square Enix history.....

Harder then the DLC bosses in XIII-2 or the secret bosses in BBSFM?

Kingdom Hearts bosses are nothing on FINAL FANTASY bosses. And yes, it's way more powerful than Snow. For one you've got to defeat all of the Dark Aeons just to fight it and they alone are the some of the hardest bosses in the series.
