In this guide, we shall go over how to beat Gurthka during the Hayabusa Village raid in Ninja Gaiden Ragebound.
Ninja Gaiden Ragebound throws you into the shoes of Kenji, a protege of Ryu Hayabusa who shows tons of potential. You start off with a training session with Ryu, a showcase meant to highlight Kenji’s growth and potential. Just as the duo seems to be getting along, you’re informed of an attack on Hayabusa Village and need to deal with the threat of demons.
The attack on Hayabusa Village is deadly. Demons are running rampant, and blood runs through the drains of this once prosperous village. As you cut through to find the perpetrators, the demon Gurthka bares his fangs.
Gurthka led the assault on the village, and now he must pay in blood. Gurthka is the first big enemy you face in the game, and this can be quite a challenge. The dragon-like demon’s massive size gives you very little room to maneuver, and his fast yet hard-hitting attacks only make things worse. If you’re struggling against this boss, our guide is for you.

To beat Gurthka, you need to know his moveset and how to counter it. Below, we’ve shared the moves he uses so you can deal with him more easily:
- Ground Slam: The first move Gurthka uses is a ground slam. He takes off into the air, flying left and right, before crashing right down at you. He hovers in the air for a second before crashing, so use this cue to dodge the slam. He also launches four fireballs right as he crashes, which you can dodge by staying roughly a foot away from him. You can also Guillotine Drop over the fireballs if necessary.
- Claw Swipe: In this move, Gurthka flies over to the other end of the arena before quickly turning around and swiping with his claws. The swipe also sets off two fireballs. You can dodge this by dodging through the flight animation and sticking to the center of the arena.
- Fire Breath: After you cut down 50% of the boss’s health, he will also start using a fire breath attack. You can dodge this by simply climbing the wall on the other end of the arena.
Apart from the three main attacks, the boss also summons a glowing skull. Killing this skull will grant you Hypercharge, which you can then use to stun him. Once stunned, you can hack away to eat away more of his HP. The Hypercharge plus stunned attacks roughly eat up 20% of his HP, so use this strat five times to win.
