Hercules/Gameplay



Hercules is a boss who can be fought in the Hercules Cup of Olympus Coliseum in Kingdom Hearts. For this battle, Sora asks Hercules to fight him one-on-one, in a friendly competition. Although Hercules appears in Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories and Kingdom Hearts II, he only appears as an enemy in the first and third instalments of the series, in order of release.

After defeating Hercules once during the Hercules Cup, you will gain 100 EXP from then on for defeating him.

Appearances

 * Olympus Coliseum

Kingdom Hearts II
Hercules does almost the same moves from Kingdom Hearts (except for the spinning tornado attack), and this time there is no yellow glow around his body, making him open to attacks. The only time a yellow glow is seen is when he is about to charge up for a powerful punch.

Evade the attacks he makes - use Dodge Roll and Glide to the best of your ability, and do not be shy about using physical attacks. Hercules is inarguably a much easier opponent than in Kingdom Hearts, and constant attacking should enable you to take down Hercules.
