Returnal Boss Guide: Hyperion / Fourth Boss / Echoing Ruins

How to beat Hyperion, Fourth Boss on the new PS5 Exclusive Returnal.
The Echoing Ruins were quite a challenge on their own, Hyperion is definitely a boss worth of closing that biome. Such a great fight, never thought I would end up fighting a boss while it plays the soundtrack for it's own arena.
Straight to the point guide with Slow-Mo on every new move from Hyperion, boss number 4 on this beautiful bullet hell.

Something actually pretty cool happened when I fought with this boss 😁. We both had just a little life left and sadly, Hyperion managed to kill me first BUT my last shots somehow managed to kill him too 😂 so I appeared at the cloning machine but with boss being killed.

Now I want to try to do that!

[@patricktheclark7996]

That's pretty crazy!!!

[@danielbest2673]

Well done...

[@anabukashka]

I think that you have the best Returnal boss guides on YT, thank you!

[@ItHadToBeDan]

Thank you so much!

[@airminhas]

Just wanted to (again) thank you! Not only did you get me through Biome 2 boss but now 3 and 4! Off to 5 I go!

[@ItHadToBeDan]

This really means a lot to me! Thank you for coming back to share your progress, it's so nice to read these update!

[@gracekami4655]

I loved this fight. I feel like it was one of the easier boss fights in the game. The boss music is amazing and the fight itself is beautiful and intense.

[@ItHadToBeDan]

One of the best!

[@maze1914]

Definitely enjoy your videos. I watch ur videos before I start the boss battle. Beat boss 3 on first try.

[@greenday051391]

Great job on these videos!

[@ItHadToBeDan]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

[@willo6651]

Really helpful, beat him first time, though it was very close and I owe it to my consumables

You’re voice is so calming! Thank you!

[@ItHadToBeDan]

Amazing!

[@Pablo_a]

The music and the atmosphere of this boss really sticks with you….

[@ItHadToBeDan]

It was playing on repeat in my head for quite a few days

[@Hobbes_the_cat]

The best video!!!!!

[@gargaj]

This was surprisingly easy, I think I got them on the 3rd try (and the 1st try was basically just to see what they do) - one thing that's worth mentioning that the thorny tunnel sidewalls hurt, so you can be pretty unlucky if you were just about to jump that way.

[@danielbest2673]

Noted thank you

[@byron5299]

There should be a warning on this game. Dont play if you have a bad heart. Mine was beating threw my chest. I ended beating him on my first go with literally 1 hp left. 😝

[@lucasvieiradacosta]

Thanks you!!! I made It 🎉🎉🎉

[@security444]

I'm still stuck on the 3rd boss ......!! Aaaaarrrrrgggghhhh...!

[@yahyeet6637]

I didn't get the vines in the 3rd wave of this fight. The electropylon driver is OP asf

[@ItHadToBeDan]

If you drain him quickly enough you don't have to worry about it!

[@Char81089]

What traits did you have on the carbine?

[@ItHadToBeDan]

Leech rounds, critical hit and rising pitch on this run!

[@Char81089]

@@ItHadToBeDan thanks bud, I have similar traits on mine now but can’t get a roll showing life leech at all...ugh. Also great video and very well done! Doing my second run at this boss tonight

[@ItHadToBeDan]

Thank you, I’m glad it’s helpful! Life leech + Rising Pitch are my favourites on the Carbine

[@Char81089]

@@ItHadToBeDan cheers bud and just an update I beat the boss thanks to your guide. I’m in biome 5 now about to face the boss with what I think is a god roll hollowseeker....level 2 portal and level 2 serrated projectiles with a level 1 waves. It seems to melt most ads and mini bosses I come across.

[@ItHadToBeDan]

Awesome!

[@imranshahzad3080]

Why are you screaming into the mic? You might as well have made this video without talking.

[@ItHadToBeDan]

Cool.
