A gimmick boss is loosely defined as a boss that must be defeated in an atypical method, such as intentionally harming a party member or using only counter attacks or whatever

First one to come to mind is Psycho Mantis. Crazy how that has stuck with me all these years.

The End is really fun, too.

Don't know that I've played a lot of recent games with gimmick bosses, tbh. Yhorm in Dark Souls 3 comes to mind, but it's not all that interesting.

I play a lot of games, so maybe I'm just not remembering more recent examples.
