How to Beat Clayface

Struggling with the final boss in Batman: Arkham City? This guide breaks down how to defeat Clayface, from his rolling attacks to his clay thugs.

Okay, so you've made it to the end of Batman: Arkham City, and you're facing off against the big guy himself, Clayface! Don't worry, I've got your back. This fight can be a bit of a surprise, especially after all the build-up with the Joker. So, here's the deal: you think you're going after the Joker in the Monarch Theater, but surprise! It's actually Clayface in disguise. The real Joker shows up, and things get messy, destroying the theater in the process. But don't let the chaos distract you – you need to focus on Clayface. Here’s how to handle him: * Watch out for his attacks: Clayface has a few tricks up his sleeve. He'll use a rolling attack, which you'll need to dodge. He also has a spinning attack, so be ready to evade. * Use the environment: The theater itself can be a bit of a hazard, with explosive corners. Just try to stay clear of those when Clayface is around. * Freeze and Attack: The key here is using your Freeze Blast Grenade. Once you hit him with it, he'll freeze up, giving you an opening to attack. You'll need to do this a couple of times. * Clay Thugs: At some point, Clayface will start making these clay thugs to attack you. Just deal with them like you would any other enemy, then get back to focusing on Clayface. * The Final Blow: After you've frozen him again, this is your chance to really lay into him. The source text mentions using Ra's al Ghul's katana for the final attack, so make sure you're ready for that. Once you finally take down Clayface, you'll unlock the 'Exit Stage Right' achievement. Great job, you beat the final boss! Now, enjoy the ending sequence where Batman carries Joker's body out of Arkham City.
