- If you followed our walkthrough, you likely acquired lots of treasure in the last level, so be sure to sell it off between chapters.
- With our newfound riches, we increased the firepower once for Chris's pistol, shotgun and machine gun, and increased the capacity and chance of a critical headshot for the pistol by one. We boosted the firepower for Sheva's S75 rifle, and sold away the Dragunov. If your herb supply is depleted, a couple of first aid sprays are solid investments.
- This level sees Chris manning a turret on the back of a jeep. Hold RT to fire, but don't squeeze the trigger too long, or the gun will overheat. The icon at the bottom right corner of the screen shows the gun's status; don't let it fill with red.
- HINT: It can be hard to see, but there is an aiming reticle, represented by a small red dot at the center of the screen.
- Occasionally, you'll have to respond to button prompts as certain events happen during the level. First, tap X when prompted to hold on during a sharp turn.
- After fighting off a few more Majini, tap A to hang on during through some bumpy terrain.
- Some of the Majini ahead wield axes. You can shoot these out of the air.
- You'll have to hold LT and RT to hang on during the next sharp curve.
- After that, you'll face more Majini on bikes, plus two trucks on either side. Start with the closest Majini on bikes, then shoot the two trucks, then clean up the remaining bikers.
- The truck will stop suddenly, and you'll face some stationary Majini. Aim for the red barrels; there's one poking out from the bed of the truck, and one to the left. Shoot at the remaining enemies until the truck explodes, allowing you to continue moving.
- Look to your right, and another truck will come near. Shoot the Majini standing on it first, then shoot the truck itself. A small group of bikes will follow, but they are easy to deal with. Shoot them, and you'll reach a cutscene.

- When play resumes, you'll be back on a turret, under attack by a giant, human-like monster. The first thing he'll try to do is stomp you, so shoot his foot when this happens.
- Next, he'll try to smash you with clasped hands, so shoot them as they're coming down. Remember, the gun can overheat, so give it some time to cool down between each attack. The icon at the bottom right corner of the screen will fill with red when the gun is overheating.
- Now, the monster will spring two tentacles from its arms. Shoot the one on the left, as Sheva is shooting the one on the right.
- The monster will retreat and pick up a rock from the ground. Keep shooting the rock as he hurls it towards you.
- Sheva yells that somethings happening. Let off your gun for a moment to cool down, then keep firing. Hit the monster in the shoulder when he gets ready for a tackle.
- After this, the monster comes in for another stomp. Hit him in the right foot when this happens.
- Now, the monster will spring another bug-like appendage from its head. Blast it, but allow split-seconds of rest as you do this to prevent overheating.
- The monster will now get close. When he winds up for a punch, get ready to press X when prompted.
- Shoot the monster in the head. When he reels back, shoot the red barrel to his left. Now, keep shooting the growths coming off his arms.
- Get ready to hit X again to hold on for his next attack. Then, keep shooting. Hit him in the shoulder when he ducks for another tackle.
- The monster will now grab a pole from the ground. Each time he swings, you'll have to hit X to duck. Fire at the growths between each swing.
- This knocks him back again. Keep shooting at the growths, and hit him in the shoulder when he prepares for another lunge.
- He'll pull another pole out of the ground. The procedure is the same -- duck with X, then hit the growths. When he staggers back, shoot the red barrel to his left.
- Another large growth comes from the monster's head. Blast it to defeat the boss once and for all. Chapter 2 is over.
