How to Kill Parasite


Kill the Parasite Before it Controls a Body

Parasites will hijack other enemies' body and control them. They'll make the enemy more aggressive and faster, giving you a harder time to kill them. Kill the parasite before they take over a body to keep the battle short!

Some Parasites are Already in a Body

Some Parasites you'll encounter will already be behind an enemy's body. You can defeat the host first and quickly draw your gun once the Parasite pops off the body and shoot it.

Use an SMG to Kill them Fast

SMGs are great gun against Parasites as it has a fast fire rate that can kill them quickly. You won't also have to worry about being too accurate when shooting them.

Handguns with high fire rate are passable as an alternative if you want to save your SMG Ammo!

Can Come Out on a Soldier's Body

During the Island chapters of the main story, Parasites can emerge from a Soldier after killing it. Stay on your toes and always be on high alert to avoid taking unnecessary damage.
