Golden monsters
While Torna ~ The Golden Country does not have any enemy fulfilling the criterias to be superbosses, it has its own superboss equivalent, Golden Monsters. Golden monsters are unique monsters that only appear after purchasing a specific info item from the Nopon Halfsage's Golden Beast Info. The info item will tell the location of the golden monster in its description. Due to the Nopon Halfsage's location being the Tasteless Altar, the Ancient Seal of Aletta must first be dispelled to be able to take on the golden monsters.

Land of Challenge
Many of the main game's superbosses appear as stronger enemies in the Land of Challenge, either as a challenge's sole enemy or as its final wave of enemy.
