Learn how to defeat the Leech Man in Resident Evil Outbreak. This guide covers strategies and tips to overcome this challenging enemy.

Alright, so you've run into the Leech Man, huh? This guy's a real pain, but don't worry, we'll get you through it. He's one of those enemies that can really mess you up if you're not prepared, but once you know his patterns, he's manageable.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Where you are: You'll typically encounter the Leech Man in the Hospital during the 'Hospital' scenario. It's a pretty cramped environment, which makes dealing with him even trickier.
  2. 2
    What you see: The Leech Man is a grotesque, mutated creature that can spit corrosive acid at you. He's also surprisingly fast and can close the distance quickly. Keep an eye on his movements; he often telegraphs his attacks.
  3. 3
    What you do: Your best bet is to keep your distance and use firearms. Shotguns are great for staggering him, giving you precious seconds to reload or reposition. Handguns are okay, but you'll burn through a lot of ammo. If you're playing as a character with a grenade launcher, now's the time to use it! Aim for his head or chest. If he gets too close, try to dodge his melee attacks.
  4. 4
    Why this way: Getting too close is dangerous because of his melee attacks and the acid spray. If you get caught in the acid, it'll drain your health rapidly. If you don't have enough firepower to keep him at bay, he'll overwhelm you.
Tips
  • Always try to keep some distance between you and the Leech Man. Use the environment to your advantage – duck behind cover if you need to reload or heal.
  • If you're playing with others, coordinate your attacks. One person can draw his attention while the other attacks from a safer angle.
  • Conserve your ammo as much as possible. Every shot counts when you're dealing with tough enemies like this.
  • Don't be afraid to use healing items. It's better to use a First Aid Spray than to die and have to restart the whole scenario.
