Halfway through the fight, an error popped up—I reported it to Nintendo but don't recall the code. The issue is that the game soft-locked afterward; the fight requires jumping from pistons onto the arena platform, but following the error, the center of the platform is sunken. Consequently, whenever I land in that sunken area, the game registers it as falling into the void and resets me to the point before the piston jumps. Even after restarting the game, the error persists, and I can no longer progress in the story.

You can keep playing, you need to jump over and shoot it a few times. It will then teleport over to be killed.
I’ve encountered the same problem on a Xbox Series S, also after a crash during the bossfight. I was eventually able to work around the lock by loading a second player (multiplayer) on a different device. So the player reset (with boss reset) doesn’t occur anymore. And the boss teleported to the launchpad side (wrong side). Breaking the softlock and advancing the story line. I think the boss fell into the void in my case.
For those having a second controller at hand, it might be worth loading in a second character. See if that helps.
