Best Strategy to Beat Mandarin in Silent Hill 2 Remake
Mandarin is a much easier boss to beat, unlike the Flesh Lip and the final boss in Silent Hill 2 Remake. However, you still need some sort of strategy to approach this boss and not get overwhelmed by it.
By this point in the game, you would have unlocked the Shotgun weapon. We recommend you do not save Shotgun ammo and use it during the boss fight. The Mandarin is a very easy target to hit as it stays at one place after jumping from the previous one.
Other than that, the boss does not have a lot of attack patterns. Firing the Mandarin using the Shotgun without worrying too much about getting hit should be your go-to method to assault the boss.
Avoid the tongue attack as it has a massive range, and you will get a hit even if you are standing at a distance.
Target its head in particular and fire all of the buck shots at its weak spot, and you should be able to beat the Mandarin in no time.
