[WARNING: THIS VIDEO CONTAINS HEAVY SPOILERS FROM THE MAIN STORY OF KINGDOM HEARTS II]
This video features the final boss fights of Kingdom Hearts II against Xemnas and his multiple forms. More specifically, upon reaching the Altar of Naught in The World That Never Was the player must defeat Xemnas a first time alone in what's basically a warm-up fight. After that the game hits its point of no return and the very final boss fights can be accessed. The first one is against Xemnas and his Dragon Ship, but it's mainly about QTEs and random enemies. The second battle involves piloting a Gummi Ship-like hovercraft along with Riku and destroy all the components of Xemnas' Dragon Ship. The third phase is against Xemnas atop of his Ship again, with some more QTEs thrown in. The very last battle of the game instead his against Xemnas himself on foot and requires both Sora and Riku not to be defeated, along with die-or-live QTEs.
Note that this video was recorded while playing Kingdom Hearts II on its Final Mix, 2.5 ReMIX version from the 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX compilation for the Playstation 4 and on Standard difficulty. I was also playing on my Playstation 4 Pro. I also had to cut some footage unrelated to Xemnas and his boss fights themselves to give the video a reasonable lenght.
Here you can find the links to the individual fights featured in the video:
1) Sora vs Xemnas boss fight (2:04)
2) Xemnas and Dragon Ship first fight (9:18)
3) Dragon Ship fight (16:21)
4) Xemnas and Dragon Ship second fight (21:13)
5) Xemnas final fight (26:06)
The first duel between Sora and Xemnas is pretty straightforward, with the boss limiting himself to dish out energy blades combo, summon damaging barriers and force you into a (addmitedly impressive) QTE. Towards the end of the fight Xemnas will become more aggressive and use his barriers and combos in quick succession.
The first battle against Xemnas and his Dragon Ship is also rather simple, as you are mainly tasked with winning some easy QTEs, defeating simple enemies and, in the end, beat up a stationary, armored Xemnas.
The fight against the Dragon Ship itself aboard the Sidecar Glider is an unexpected gameplay change which will force you in a Gummi Ship-like sequence. Even if you didn't play through all the Gummi missions this battle should be pretty easy and dodging everything the boss throw at you (whenever you are not absorbing it to charge up your special attack) simple enough.
The second battle against Xemnas and his Dragon Ship is a bit more tricky than the last. Now Xemnas can summon his damaging barriers and unblockable lasers in your general direction at an allarming frequency, making landing attacks on him harder than before. Also, Xemnas will now routinely blast you away from the Ship's cockpit, forcing you to fall down as you try to reach nearby skyscrapers and begin a QTE to be able to reach Xemnas again. Later in the fight the falling sequence will also feature its own unlockable lasers coming at you.
The very final battle with Xemnas is about Sora and Riku fighting Xemnas on foot in a more traditional Kingdom Hearts II boss fight. The battle features a lot of QTEs you must win in order to survive which often interrupt the action and, should Riku be defeated, you'll recive a non-standard game over. The hardest part of the fight is about Xemnas attempting to rip out Sora's heart, forcing you to play as Riku in order to reach and save him. The sequence is hard because not only dying as Riku or failing to save Sora in time will result in a game over, but the battlefield makes difficult to understand if you are going in the right direction and Xemnas will send a clone to spam damaging barriers on you.
Even then, the last boss fight is more cinematic than actually challengin, and should be easily overcome by any player who managed to get up to this point of the game
