How To Beat The El Gigante Duo Boss Fight In Resident Evil 4 Remake
When it comes to the regular El Gigante enemy, players will just need to use the same strategy they used the first time this boss was encountered in the Quarry. Target the non-armored El Gigante’s head until the parasite protrudes out of the creature’s back. This will be the weak spot for the boss that you will now want to shoot which can stagger El Gigante to drop the creature and allow you to climb onto its back and get some critical knife strikes on the parasite. Keep doing damage to the creature and it will die, though it has a much smaller amount of health compared to the previous version of the boss. Defeating the boss like this will see them drop a Yellow Diamond Treasure item.
For the second armored El Gigante boss, you will need to wait for Luis to run away from the combat arena and return with a bundle of Dynamite. He will be standing on a platform when he returns with the explosives, which you will then need to lead the boss over to him so that he can hop onto the creature’s back and attach the Dynamite to the armor. Shoot the Dynamite to reveal the parasite. From here, you can fight the armored El Gigante as you would the normal one. When you kill this boss, it will get the Red Beryl Treasure item.
While this is the simple way to defeat these bosses, there is a way to instantly kill the enemies. In the center of the arena is a platform that can be opened to drop the bosses into a vat of lava. The boss must be stunned with either a flashback or the stagger that comes with attacking their parasite, but once they are stunned, you must full a switch on a mechanism next to the platform to drop them into it. This will instantly kill that El Gigante, but you cannot retrieve their Treasure.
