This trophy is storyline related and cannot be missed. Halfway through Chapter 2-1 you'll find yourself going through a waterfall and getting a key. After getting the key you'll find yourself in an area you already visited but will be attacked by your first El Gigante. Bring the giant down to earn this trophy.

El Gigante is strong but slow, his attacks can be easily dodged if you recognize what he is doing.

Keep El Gigante away from you and shoot him as much as you can until his drops to his knees and a giant parasite pops out. Approach El Gigante and press to mount him and then mash or to slash the parasite. Repeat the shooting and slashing until he dies. If you have any Flash Grenades you can use them to stun Gigante.

Other
If you're close to him when he dies, he can land on you and kill you. Either stay away from him or be prepared for the contextual dodge command.

If you rescued the dog from the bear trap in Chapter 1-1 he will show up and help you by distracting El Gigante.

This is story related and cannot be missed.

Near the end of chapter 2-1, just after you get the “Round Insignia” from the waterfall, you will end up fighting a boss called El Gigante.

There are two ways you can kill this beast.

  1. When you get to the boss fight, shoot him full of bullets. Once he curls over and his weak spot comes out of his back, run up to him and press to get on his back, then mash the button to slash the parasite. Rinse and repeat until he dies. He will take a lot of bullets, but after he goes down three times, the battle should be over.
  2. If you have the cash and the space to carry one, you can buy a rocket launcher from the shop before the battle. If you shoot him straight away...he will die.

Story trophy. given after killing the boss.

Strategy with him - for the battle prostate, it is advisable to save the wolf from the trap at the very beginning of the game, when you fight the boss a wolf will appear and distract him, at this moment it is the right time to shoot, when you have done enough damage a parasite will appear from the back or shoot from something powerful weapon or using a knife.

On normal difficulty, just one shot from the rocket launcher is enough 8)

If you didn't miss the barrels and crows, you should have at least 4 stun and explosive grenades for this boss. Incendiaries have no effect on him. Using grenades will make the kill much easier. Kill the parasite as best you can. Supermen can kill with a knife in two times. From weapons for three. We have already written about the dog.

One shot from an RPG will be enough.
