Hunter γ (Gamma) - How To Kill Guide

Can One Shot Jill

When the Hunter γ gets too close, it can launch an attack that will immediately kill Jill. It will open its mouth wide and swallow Jill whole.

Shoot at Mouth when Open

This Hunter γ's weak spot is its mouth. When it advances towards you with its mouth open, walk backwards and start shooting at it with your weapon.

1. ~ 9. Escape from Nemesis - Tips

Keep Your Health Up to Move Faster

The lower your health, the slower you will move and this is not the time to be slow. Keep your health high by healing up when you receive significant damage!

Focus on Dodging Zombies, Nemesis

Don't bother shooting down any of the enemies you come across to. Focus on getting as far away from Nemesis as possible. Dodge any attacks that comes your way.

vs. Nemesis - Boss Fight Tips

vs. Nemesis First Form

Shoot from Behind Cover

Do not engage Nemesis out in the open with its flamethrower. Use the structures around the rooftop as cover and shoot nemesis by peeking out of it.

Change Positions when it does Upward Fire Attack

When Nemesis aims its flamethrower upwards, immediately move to another cover. That attack can reach behind your cover!

Being on Fire will Kill You

Stay on fire for too long and you will die immediately. This is why it's important to switch positions whenever Nemesis tries to smoke you out of your cover.

Aim for its Fuel Tank

At Nemesis' back is a Fuel Tank that you need to keep shooting. Focus all of your attacks here to quickly detonate it and deal enough damage against Nemesis to start its second phase.

vs. Nemesis Second Phase

Nemesis Becomes More Aggressive

After its tank explodes, Nemesis will start gunning after you with physical attacks. It will also follow after you even when you go behind cover.

Engage Nemesis from a Distance

Always keep your distance from Nemesis. Staying close to it is very dangerous since it has multiple physical attacks that it can bombard you with.

Use Grenade Launcher & Shotgun

Since you don't have to focus your attacks in a single part of Nemesis, you can now use your Grenade Launcher to deal huge damage against it. The Shotgun is also great for this since Nemesis has a wide torso.

Use Generators to Stun It

There are generators around the rooftop that you can use to stun Nemesis for a few seconds. Take this time to deal as much damage to it before it shakes off the stun.

Dodge Out of Charge Attack

Nemesis will assume a charging pose before it actually does it. When you see this, either duck behind cover or quickly turn away from it to dodge it.

1. Head Out to the Street - Tips

Heal Immediately

After getting back on your feet, you will be at low health. It's best to heal first before going out of the street and risk dying.

4. Go Inside the Gun Shop - Tips

Loot the Shelves

The Shelves in the Gun Shop has a number of ammo that you can take. Get as much as you can and if you don't have space, you can always place it in the Item Box within the shop.

Get the Semi-Auto Barrel (Shotgun)

Other than ammo, you can also get a Semi-Auto Barrel for your Shotgun in one of the shelves.

6. Open Gate to the Side of the Shop - Tips

Mutated Zombie will Show Up

Mutated Zombies have a longer range and a weak spot that is hidden behind its claws. Keep your distance from it when you engage it.

Glowing Spot is Weak Point

When its claws open, a bright orange spot will appear on its head. Aim for that because that is the zombie's weak spot!

9. Head Towards the Alley - Tips

Nemesis Will Show Up Again

Nemesis isn't down for the count yet. It will reappear here again with a stronger weapon at its hand, a rocket launcher!

Dodge Away when Laser Turns Red

When the laser turns red, it mean the position where the rocket will be shot is locked. When it turns red, dodge to the side to escape from its splash damage.

11. Go to the Barricade - Tips

Open Box for First Aid Spray

After the cutscene, walk towards the lone box and open it with your knife. Inside is a First Aid Spray you can use to heal yourself back to full health.

14. Outrun the Giant Head - Tips

Go Down Stairs and Head to the Alley

Escape the head by running back down the stairs and immediately running to the right where there is an alley to hide on. Touching the head will immediately crush Jill!
