bosses in Resident Evil 4 Remake - special enemies that are extremely important figures in the plot. Of course, they differ in their shape, appearance and unique attacks. Each boss needs its own approach and weapon, because almost all of them must be defeated in order to advance further in the story.
In this guide, we will tell you how to defeat all the bosses in Resident Evil 4 (2023), we will offer tips and tactics for fighting each of them.
del lago
Stage of history: Chapter 3, Lake
The lake monster is the first special enemy in the game, and despite its huge size, killing the boss is not difficult. This huge creature is dragging Leon along on the boat, at this time attack the monster's body with harpoons. This is the only weapon that is available during the battle. It is worth mentioning that he has ammunition unlimited. From time to time, Del Lago will jump out of the water, trying to absorb the man: at this moment, it is necessary to attack the monster's mouth.
In addition, do not forget about the large number of obstacles on the lake: try to maneuver so as not to crash into another snag and not get a stun effect. When you defeat the monster, unfortunately, you will not receive any reward.
El Gigante
Stage of history: Chapter 4, Quarry
Moving through the Quarry towards the Church, you will pass through a small area where bonfires are now lit. Upstairs, find a man casting a spell. After that, the camera will be transferred to the iron door, and the Giant will appear from there.
The weak point of the mutant is head. When you shoot at this point enough times, from the giant's hump a worm will come out - shoot him to defeat the boss.
Do not forget about grenades that can stun a mutant. From time to time, the creature jumps up: you need to dodge so as not to take too much damage. In addition, the dog will partially help in the battle, which will join the fight.
After hitting the appendage several times, the mini-boss will fall to the ground, and a button will appear above his hump.Hit". It is necessary to crush the giant several times so that it falls, and then hit the sprout. After the first interaction with the boss, the giant will fail, allowing Leon to easily shoot the shoot: the mutant will either be bitten by a dog, or stones will collapse. Use these activities to complete the battle.
Bitoris Mendes
Stage of history: Chapter 6, Gate
The first meeting with Bitoris Mendes happens at the very beginning of the sixth chapter. However, this can hardly be called a battle: Leon needs to escape from the headman of the village, along the way fighting (or avoiding) the cultists. There is no point in fighting the boss at this stage, you just need to save yourself and protect Ashley.
The next meeting will be pretty soon. When you enter the old barn with the girl, Leon will begin to explore the second floor: at this moment, Bitoris will break through the wall. Then the battle will begin. The headman has two weaknesses: head and spine, try to shoot exactly at these points.
Use shotgun and explosivesto deal more damage and stun Mendez. This will allow you to complete the first phase faster. Run around the boss and try to hit the spine located between the human torso and legs. Permanent damage to this point will “break” Bitoris in half and end the battle stage.
Get ready for the QTE scenes when Mendes grabs Leon. In addition, regularly have to dodge. We recommend that you quickly climb to the second floor to pick up consumables. It is also worth noting that it is more convenient to fight back from there. When you stab Bitoris a second time, he will break in half.
The second phase is that the headman of the sectarians holds on to the beam with one pair of claws, and with the other he throws various objects at Leon. Among all the burning rubbish, sometimes there are red explosive barrels - you need to hit them to inflict damage on the boss.
Soon the sectarian will begin to approach. Don't forget to dodge and shoot the weak spots with your shotgun. It's also worth tossing it grenades. When the boss is defeated, his eye will fall out, which can be taken. Artificial eye of Mendez costs 12 pesetas from a merchant.
Garrador
Stage of history: Chapter 10, Dungeon
Passing through the dungeon in the tenth chapter, meet Garrador. This the enemy is blindbut not deaf. When you see him for the first time, just move on through the story until you reach a small room. Here you can already start the battle. Move quietly and move around the creature from behind to hit his red bud on the back. It is enough to hit Garrador 3-4 times, and he will fall, after which the battle will end.
Very soon, when you get close to the battle with Verdugo, you will have to fight this mutant again, but now he will have a twin brother. The tactics against them are the same, but we recommend that you first destroy one, and then the other.
Armored Giant
Stage of history: Chapter 10, Castle Gate
An armored giant, in essence, is not even a boss. If an ordinary mutant of this kind can cause trouble, then this enemy will not even have to be fought. When he appears on the horizon, immediately run to the cannon. Aim at the armored giant and shoot: the "boss" will immediately fall to the ground.
Verdugo
Stage of history: Chapter 10
In fact, the boss fight will begin at the moment when you first see footage of some kind of creature running through the ventilation. Passing bosses sometimes consists simply in the need to run away - the battle with Verdugo is just such a case. Fight with this enemy based on time, so you can avoid the battle and wait for the elevator to arrive. However, if you decide to use this method, then get golden monocle will fail.
If you decide to fight and kill the boss, you should play from the environment. In the arena where you fight, there are levers that activate the flow of nitrogen. When you find that Verdugo is running towards Leon, immediately start the mechanism and move away.
If the enemy is hit by the currents, he will be covered with a white "crust". After that, you can melee attack him using the action button, then shoot several times. As a weapon, we recommend using magnum or PP. Grenades are best thrown when Verdugo is on the ground.
Major Krauser - First meeting
Stage of history: Chapter 11, Cargo Port
The first meeting with Major Jack Krauser takes place in the port. After the cut-scene, the men will be in the arena, where a knife fight will take place. This is the only weapon that can be used in a boss fight. Try to get close to deal damage to the enemy.
After a few hits on the Krauser, the latter will stagger and make it possible to get closer and land another, much stronger blow. When the boss starts to kneel down and cover his face with his hand, act. Do not forget to follow the prompts on the screen, they will greatly simplify the battle. The battle will end with Louis shooting Jack. The last one will run away from the arena and the battle will end. However, Leon still has to meet the Major later.
Ramon Salazar
Stage of history: Chapter 12
Ramon Salazar will fight immediately in his mutated form. After the cutscene, the boss fight will begin. The weak point of the boss is his eye.. We recommend using mainly TMP, Stingray or CQBR - these types of weapons have a high rate of fire, which is extremely important for defeating this enemy.
Focus on Ramon's body, which is hidden in the monster's mouth. It differs in color and looks more faded when compared with the rest of the mass. Dealing enough damage to the body will cause the monster to fall: at this point, you can approach and stab, removing a lot of HP.
Use the post ladder as cover to hide from Ramon's powerful attacks. This obstacle can also prevent Salazar from performing a choke attack that will instantly execute Leon.
If you run out of resources, try break acid capsulesto knock out ammo, herbs or gunpowder. When you shoot at them, stay away and then you won't take damage. It is worth mentioning only one attack of Ramon - a jerk and an attempt to eat. The boss prepares for a while and then jumps on Leon, dealing massive damage.
After defeating Ramon Salazar, you can take from him rougeto then sell them to a merchant.
Major Krauser - Second meeting
Stage of history: Chapter 14, Ruins
Leon will meet Krauser again, now in ruins. The military is still alive and well, and therefore the battle will be held on firearms. In the first phase of the battle, you need to hide well and shoot at the enemy while he is reloading. Sometimes the enemy will approach: switch to knife and keep fighting. Follow the prompts on the screen to take the right action in time.
Soon the battle will turn into the ruins themselves, in which Krauser set up one big trap. When the military approaches shoot the laser mineattached to a nearby wall to damage an enemy.
All over the location scattered turrets. They are easy to spot by their bright red glow. As soon as the mechanism notices Leon, a long machine-gun burst begins. Aim carefully and break the device with one shot so as not to waste ammo. Beware of traps that are found on the ground.
Pay special attention to the scene in which the Major fires explosive arrows at Leon. Hide while he shoots and attack the enemy with a sniper rifle. When running between covers, move closer to the Krauser to deal damage.
Finish the battle by defeating the Major in a knife fight. Dodge, parry, and land finishers when prompted.
Major Krauser, mutated version
Stage of history: Chapter 14, Ruins
Killing the boss is much more difficult than the two previous versions of it. Stock up on the necessary resources: upgrade your weapons, take heals and prepare grenades. When you pass through the ruins, you will find yourself in a small arena, where the battle will take place.
Krauser most of the time is very close, so we recommend using a shotgun or automatic weaponsto deal maximum damage. Near - shotgunwhen the Major is running - SMG.
Constantly move around the arena, parry his attacks and beware Krauser's jump. When the military climbs to the second floor, get ready: now there will be an attack from above. It is best to approach the stone supports, Leon will definitely not receive damage from them. For defeating the penultimate boss, you can get a combat knife.
Osmund Saddler
Stage of history: Chapter 16
Osmund Saddler is the final boss in Resident Evil 4 Remake. The opponent's weak points are his eyes.which are clearly visible against the background of the rest of the body. Try to hit the eyeballs located on the legs and other limbs.
If the battle drags on, Saddler will destroy some of the platforms, thereby limiting Leon's movement around the arena. Shoot explosive barrels, luring Osmund to them. This will deal massive damage to the enemy. Also, don't forget to kill boss minions to save health.
In the second phase, Saddler will be reborn. To defeat the boss shoot the golden core, which appeared between the long resemblances of tentacles. Attack the weak spot until he dies. At the end of Hell, he will throw a rocket launcher to Leon, with which you need to finish off Saddler. This will end the fight with him.
