57 Beat King is the rhythm-themed Anomaly of the Hethereau anomaly zone, a music-spirit that conducts the city's noise into a literal beat chart. The encounter's flavor line frames it bluntly: "Follow the beat, press buttons when the time is right. And there you go. You're now a rhythm gamer."

2527 General Combat Guidance
2628  
2729 Fill the boss's break meter with consistent attacks and reward-heavy defensive inputs. Successful parries and dodges contribute significantly more to the break bar than a hit, and a clean parry also fills the Esper Cycle Meter instantly. Save ultimates and heaviest skills for the stagger window that follows a full break. Beat King takes greatly increased damage while staggered, so burst output during this phase largely determines whether the encounter clears quickly. Build the team around the Psyche weakness. Characters aligned with Psyche will see the largest damage multiplier, and team compositions that can enable elemental reactions on top of that attribute will apply additional pressure to the break bar between stagger windows.

4648 Beat King is the only Anomaly Hunt encounter that fully gates its damage windows behind a rhythm minigame, so practice runs at lower challenge levels are far more useful than they are for other Hunt targets. Once the chart's pattern is memorized, the fight clears quickly because the boss's break bar fills aggressively on perfectly timed inputs.

65+Beat King initiates a rhythm-game challenge during the encounter. Players must follow an on-screen chart and respond to timing-based prompts for jumping, dodging, and basic attacks. The fight rewards rhythm-game accuracy as much as raw damage; missed timing windows extend the fight rather than ending it cleanly.
