Ghirahim boss guide for The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD, showing the first Ghirahim encounter at the end of the Skyview Temple dungeon on Nintendo Switch.
In this Skyward Sword HD boss fight, Link faces Demon Lord Ghirahim for the first time. This video shows how to beat Ghirahim in Skyview Temple, including how to deal with his sword-grabbing first phase, how to fake out his hand tracking, and how to survive the second phase when he starts using his own sword and projectile attacks.
If you are stuck on the first Ghirahim fight in Zelda: Skyward Sword HD, the key is to bait his guard by moving your sword one way, then slash from the opposite direction before he can catch your blade. In phase two, watch his positioning, avoid or deflect his projectiles, and punish his openings after his attacks.
This is the first major boss fight in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD and takes place in Skyview Temple, one of the earliest dungeons in the game.
