In chapter 6: Environmental Hazard in Dead Space Remake, Isaac must face the Leviathan. Our walkthrough explains how to avoid the Leviathan's leg attacks and projectiles, as well as how to weaken and defeat the huge monster in the Food Storage.
Location of fighting the Leviathan
Leviathan is a powerful creature and one of the main bosses in Dead Space Remake. Weakening Leviathan is one of the objectives of chapter 6 - Environmental Hazard. The confrontation with the boss takes place in its final part.
Leviathan's lair is the Food Storage and you can only get there after completing the other main objectives. There is zero gravity in the storage. You must fly during the boss fight and can't attack the Leviathan by standing on the stable shelf.
Description of the boss fight
The boss fight consists of 3 phases. In the first phase, the Leviathan will attack with its legs. These attacks are telegraphed. Use boost and fly to the side.
After successfully dodging the attack, quickly turn towards the boss and attack the orange leg growth. You can use firearms (e.g. Plasma Cutter or Pulse Rifle) or quickly grab an explosive red container with kinesis and throw it at the boss.
In the second phase of the fight, the Leviathan will reveal its mouth and start spitting out projectiles. The best tactic is to grab the projectiles with kinesis and quickly throw them at the mouth.
You can also attack the mouth in the conventional way - using firearms or red containers.
The third phase of the fight is a combination of both of the above. You have to expect leg attacks and spitting out projectiles. An additional problem are the toxic fumes. They will start to deplete Isaac's oxygen supplies, which forces him to be more aggressive.
Focus on attacking the mouth, as this is Leviathan's main weakness. Avoid the telegraphed leg attacks and fly to the side.
Keep fighting until the creature is dead. Defeating the Leviathan unlocks the Exterminator trophy.
