How to defeat the Chainsaw Man in Resident Evil 4 Remake
The Resident Evil 4 remake is out right now for PC and consoles. The iconic survival-horror title sees a current-gen makeover with new designs and gameplay overhauls for a new audience. However, as a remake, it retains the fundamental structure that made the 2004 Nintendo GameCube original a must-play classic. This includes many familiar aspects, from combat to encountered enemies. One of the many iconic examples of the latter is the Chainsaw Man.
An uncommon enemy type in the Resident Evil 4 remake, as well as the original, he is a burly man with a potato sack on his head. The highlight is the large chainsaw he brandishes, hence the name. He is one of the most challenging foes to tackle, so how do players deal with the Chainsaw Man?
He is encountered relatively early in the Resident Evil 4 remake in the small village with the infected. When players reach the village, they will be prompted to initiate an in-game cutscene. This follows the mutant villagers burning a person alive in the center of the area. Here on, the absolute terror begins. The place will be swarming with enemies, so it’s best to conserve ammo by using stealth to kill foes and jumping into the action only when detected.
At this point in the remake, protagonist Leon Kennedy will only be armed with a pistol and a knife. Swerve through the waves of foes by staggering them by shooting them in the leg. This will also allow players to follow up with a strong melee attack, ideal for preserving bullets. Be sure to break open crates scattered around the place to collect consumables while keeping an eye on surroundings for lurking enemies.
As players proceed halfway through the village, a brand new cutscene will be initiated, introducing the Chainsaw Man into the mix.
