Out of nowhere, anew survival-horror gameclearly inspired by classicResident EvilandSilent Hillhit the PlayStation Store for PS4.Dawn of Fearhas the tank controls and fixed camera angles fans remember from the PS1-eraResident Evilgames, and it also has its fair share of horrific monstrosities for players to contend with as well.
Beyond the standard zombies and other enemies thatDawn of Fearplayers will bump into during their time with the game, there’s also some boss fights. The first boss players encounter is a huge beast that appears to be made up of dead peoples' body parts. It can kill theDawn of Fearprotagonist pretty easily, but there is a way to make the fight much easier. As long as players go into the battle with sufficient supplies and a good strategy, they should be able to come out the other end unscathed.

The red hallway that leads to the firstDawn of Fearboss has some pistol ammunition sitting the corner, along with a first aid kit down the stairs. Collect both of these and make sure the pistol is fully loaded. Just outside the boss door is a skeleton sitting in a wheelchair, clutching ashotgun. Grab the shotgun and then head into the room with the boss.
TheDawn of Fearboss will wake up after walking into its pit. Collect the shotgun ammo on the ground and run around it in a circle. Like in aclassicResident Evilgame, players can’t move and shoot inDawn of Fear, so they will want to verify there’s good distance between themselves and the monster.
Position theDawn of Fearboss so that it’s standing in in front of the door in his pit. Shoot it a few times and it should be stunned. Since the pistol shoots faster, we recommend using that over the shotgun if possible, but either weapon will do. When it’s stunned, interact with the machine next to the door to call in a container. The container should bump into the boss, which will damage it. It doesn’t have to be exact as the boss’s hit box is all over the place, but try to get it as close as possible to verify it registers.
Simply repeat this process three times to defeat theDawn of Fearboss. It’s not the most terrifyingsurvival-horror enemyever, but it can still kill the player fairly quickly, so put it down as soon as possible.
