Colossus
"I've begun to find a dark humor in the absolute overkill that I face. This is simply ridiculous."
– The Survivor
The Colossus is one of the game's bosses.
Description
The Colossus is a gigantic humanoid stone construct, with mounds of moss resting on its shoulders.
It has various red windows and architecture haphazardly incorporated into its body. Its head resembles a castle tower, with a large glass window serving as a “face”.
Behaviour
Upon spawning, the Colossus claps its hands spawning a Rock Golem, and will do so every time it claps its hands again. These claps will damage the player. When getting close to the Colossus, it will stomp the ground and deal heavy damage to survivors in a low area in front of it.

Spawning
Monster Log
A low groaning, lasting for a few days at least. From the relative safety of my drop pod I watched as a mountain rose to its knees, pushing itself up with arms of stone and dirt and twine.
The Colossus appears as a cousin of the Rock Golem and share many similarities, from its red gaze to its stocky stature. Around its feet many smaller golems rose, joining it. In what possible ways could conventional weapons help Me?
I've begun to find a dark humor in the absolute overkill that I face. This is simply ridiculous.
Trivia
- The Colossus' head appears in the sister game Risk of Rain 2.
- The Colossus cannot be moved by geysers.
