When you head towards the end of the Quarry in Chapter 4 of Resident Evil 4 Remake, you will find a huge boss monster called El Gigante blocking the path. This means you have to beat the monstrous creature. However, this monster is incredibly tough, although its rather clunky and can only be taken down with the weapons in Leon's arsenal. Besides that, El Gigante also has a lot of HP, even surpassing some of the enemies in the Resident Evil 4 Remake storyline.

Thus, you'll need some strategies to use to defeat this boss. The most important thing is not to waste ammo and find resources that you can use against him. The first thing you can do is buy weapons from the Merchant before going to the Quarry to make your battle easier. Here are some tips to help you defeat El Gigante in Resident Evil 4 Remake. Without further ado, let’s get into it.

Resident Evil 4 Remake: How to Defeat El Gigante

1. Save the Dog First

If you helped the dog that was caught in a bear trap outside the Village Chief's Residence in Chapter 3 of Resident Evil 4 Remake, the dog will return to help Leon. During your fight against El Gigante, the dog will act as a distraction and then start biting the boss' legs. This will trigger El Gigante to collapse the rock wall of the mine on his own. You can use this moment to finish him off while he is stunned. Make sure you focus on the boss' weak points to beat him.

2. Always Aim for the Head

It seems that the quickest way to inflict damage more quickly is to land precise headshots. If you hit the weak spots on its head, you will enrage the boss and a parasite will sprout from its back. This means that you manage to hit its weak point.

So, you can continue to focus your attacks on that part of the head to get a headshot and dish out more damage. Besides that, if you use a gun, using a laser sight will be very useful to increase the accuracy of your shots when you are moving. When you have taken out a lot of parasites and hurt them, El Gigante will start to get hurt and kneel down.

3. Stay Within His Blind Spots

Try to stay behind and under El Gigante to avoid his wild swings as well as his grasp. Once you’re grabbed by him, you’ll need to use your melee to escape. On top of that, by staying below and behind El Gigante, you can avoid getting the damage from the hurls. 

4. Avoid His Jumps and Grasps

Throughout the battle, El Gigante will keep trying to catch you and jump at you. So, you'll need to keep an eye on the timing of his jumps. Learning his timing can help you dodge quickly. Or, you can also run around him or run between his legs to avoid him without having to calculate his timing.

5. Aim for the Tentacles/Parasites

Once you dish out enough damage in Phase 1, you will render the giant parasitic tentacles to come out of el Gigante's back. When the tentacles start coming out, you need to switch your focus on them and do as much damage as possible. Because every damage you do to the tentacles will be amplified. But bear in mind that he really hates being shot in these areas, so he'll try to quickly pull the tentacles back in. As soon as the tentacles are pulled back, you can refocus on the head to do massive damage.

So, those were some tips that you can use to defeat El Gigante in Resident Evil 4 Remake. Hopefully, you’ll find these tips useful.
