This next sequence requires you to simply make your way toward the Hive boss, using LT and RT to spin the blades as a shield when it tries to throw projectiles your way. Luckily for you, the rotor blades still work.
Once the tentacles are taken care of, the Hive boss will manage to level the playing field a little and take down the helicopter. You’ll have to do this for each of the tentacles, so simply keeping shooting its projectiles out of the air and rinse repeat the above process. Let go of the bumper and watch the monster recoil in pain. Simply hold LB and aim at the socket until the reticle turns red. To stop another tentacle from sprouting, you’ll need to use your air support to blast the socket that the tentacle emerged from.
This will cause the Hive boss to rip its tentacle off. Once the tentacle is weak, you’ll need to run up close to it and then press Y to ‘execute’ it. It doesn’t matter what order you take them down in, but it’s best to just focus on one at a time. Use the Buzzkill that comes equipped as part of your giant robot buddy and aim for the Hive boss’ tentacles. Here’s how to take ‘That’ down and reach the end of your Gears of War 4 adventure. Affectionately called ‘That’ by the game, the Hive boss is quite distinct, with its four tentacles sprouting from its shoulders. As you approach the end of Gears of War 4, you’ll be faced with the biggest and freakiest looking enemy of your adventure so far.
