How to Prepare to Fight Mary?

Mary can be found at the end of the stairwell at Lakeview Hotel, on the roof of the building. All you need to do to get to her is to proceed through the game as you would, solving the various mandatory puzzles along the way.

When James meets Mary in the final area of Lakeview Hotel, they’ll have a short conversation. At this point, the game has decided which of the several endings you’ll get.

How To Beat Mary in Silent Hill 2 Remake

TheSilent Hill 2Mary boss fight is split into three phases. After the final phase, you will have to take a certain action to officially ‘end’ the fight and see which ending you got. We haveguides on obtaining the different endingsif you’re looking for a specific one.

Mary: First Phase

During her first phase, she’ll be floating above the ground and teleport around the room while sending her moths to attack you occasionally.

You can attack these moths with your Pipe, and then use the Rifle to shoot at her when you get a chance. When she disappears, follow the swarm of moths to see where she’ll reappear.

Sometimes, she’ll use one of the steel bars of the cage-like structure to attack you, which you may dodge to the side to avoid.

Mary: Second Phase

A cutscene will play before she enters her second phase. She’ll break the floor, taking herself and James down through it.

The Shotgun is a better choice for this phase since Mary will appear close to you throughout the fight.

This area is barely lit, so you’ll have to use your flashlight to find her. She’ll appear from different holes in the ceiling, and you just need to shoot her when you see her.

The best strategy for this phase is to stay around the same corner and shoot her when she appears.

Mary: Third Phase

You’ll enter the third phase after a cutscene plays and Mary breaks the walls of the building, allowing for some light to pour through. She can’t fly anymore; instead, she’ll be crawling around the floor in her steel cage like a spider.

In this phase, she’s incredibly aggressive and pretty fast. You can either keep your distance from her or circle her while attacking.

Be careful of her swipe attacks as they have an incredibly long range. Occasionally, she’ll turn into a swarm of moths and teleport to another part of the arena, so keep an eye out for that.

One of her new moves is the ability to shriek, which will stun James. You can’t dodge out of this, and there’s a chance she’ll hit you while you’re stunned.

When you’ve done enough damage, a cutscene will play showing her cage breaking down. To end the fight, you must approach her and take the final shot.

Congratulations! With that, you’ve completed your run of theSilent Hill 2 Remake. Let us know which ending you got in the comments below!
