Top 10 Best Minecraft Mods with Bosses in February 2024

Although there are tons of enemies in Minecraft, there aren’t that many boss encounters. As with practically everything else, players can find what they want, thanks to the seemingly limitless supply of custom content. Here is my selection of the Top 10 Best Minecraft Mods with Bosses for February 2024.

What are the 10 Best Minecraft Mods with Bosses for February 2024?

10. Dungeons Mod

Starting this list off is the simply-named Dungeons Mod. It adds a host of new mobs and bosses that would feel right at home in an RPG but also mesh just fine with vanilla Minecraft. Those looking to get their feet wet with new bosses will have a great time with this. That’s not to say those more experienced with crazy-modded boss fights won’t enjoy themselves, though. As someone who prefers mods that match the designs and aesthetics of the base game, I’ve had a wonderful time playing this.

9. Infinite Abyss

Infinite Abyss is another mod that practically feels like an expansion to the base game. It adds multiple transition dimension layers between the Overworld, the Nether, and beyond. Three unique bosses and various new mobs can be encountered within these new dimensions.

The Immersive Portals mod, which was featured on our list of the Best Minecraft Mods for 2023, can also be used in tandem here. While that mod can already be taxing on some PCs, mine included, the two go well together. I already enjoyed exploring the new dimensions of Infinite Abyss, and Immersive Portals only enhanced that experience for me.

8. Brutal Bosses – Custom Bosses

If you want tough challenges that really feel like they came from the base game, Brutal Bosses – Custom Bosses is a mod to look out for. It features boss versions of common mobs ranging from a stronger Iron Golem to an aggressive Mooshroom. Each utilizes unique abilities and AI to ensure none of them feel like each other or their vanilla versions.

There are also some tools to create your own bosses, even if you use entities from other mods. This feature has allowed me to have the most creative fun compared to other entries on this list. Whether I’ve wanted to fight stronger enemies that reuse existing vanilla creatures or wanted to try my hand at experimenting with other custom mobs, Brutal Bosses is simply pure fun.

7. Bosses of Mass Destruction

Bosses of Mass Destruction is all about providing the kind of fights you expect to face in the end game. You’ll be able to find four tough monsters within the Overworld as well as in the Nether and The End. Although this doesn’t feature much besides a few bosses, they’re all widely different and incredibly challenging. I’ve been hard-pressed to find anything else that lets me fight a giant living gauntlet or a huge plant.

6. L_Ender’s Cataclysm

Even more tough battles can be found in the L_Ender’s Cataclysm mod. Various new dungeons and items are available here, but I believe the powerful bosses are the highlights. Any Minecraft Dungeons players are likely to recognize the inspiration for a few, but each feels distinct from one another. As someone who didn’t spend too much time with the dungeon-crawler spin-off, I felt that each boss in this mod offered a fun challenge and felt right at home within the Minecraft universe.

5. Marium’s Soulslike Weaponry

Fans of FromSoftware works are bound to like Marium’s Soulslike Weaponry. This mod adds more than 40 different weapons to use, which can be crafted after defeating bosses. While a couple of vanilla entities can suffice, I had my fun tackling the many new larger-than-life bosses. I found that fighting these difficult opponents to craft new weapons to fight them again made for a satisfying gameplay loop.

4. EpicEldenRing

If the inspirations of the previous mod aren’t enough and you want something more direct, check out EpicEldenRing. Armor, weapons, bosses, and more from the mega-hit Elden Ring are available with this mod. These feature some of the hardest fights from any mod on this list, if not the hardest, and I’m not ashamed to admit I lost a ton of times against them. Granted, it wouldn’t feel like a proper tribute if it was any less difficult.

3. Roguelike Adventures and Dungeons 2

Roguelike Adventures and Dungeons 2 boast an incredible number of features. 1500+ quests, 100+ biomes, and plenty of new dungeons and dimensions to traverse. That first reason even earned it a spot on our list of the Top Minecraft Modpacks with Quests. Of course, I’m putting it here because it includes quite a few mods with their own bosses. You can take it from me that this is a must-play if you’re looking for tough battles and more to sink your time into.

2. Bossominium

Bossominium delivers exactly what you expect from the name. The primary focus here is the 23 different bosses, which have a huge range of designs. I’ve played a lot of mods that add bosses, but none have come as close to including this much and with such variety. I thoroughly enjoyed all of the thought put into their summoning methods, as well as the unique abilities of each one. This was easily the most fun I had with a Minecraft mod solely based on bosses.

1. DawnCraft

Ending this list is the immensely popular DawnCraft. This is another stacked modpack that culminates with a wealth of content that you can spend hundreds of hours playing. With over 200+ mods and some unique additions, there are also a lot of boss fights to experience.

Plenty of them stood out as the most memorable moments from the modpack, if not from my time playing modded Minecraft in general. Between their unique designs and the sheer amount introduced from other mods, it easily earns the number one spot on this list. I highly recommend players give it a shot if they haven’t already.
