Le Grande Finale | Bioshock Walkthrough Bioshock guide, walkthrough
Last update: 04 February 2020
This page of the BioShock guide contains a description of the fight with the final boss of the game, namely Fontaine. You will learn how to avoid boss attacks, how to weaken him, and how to advance to the next stages of the final clash.
Your opponent is pumped-up Fontaine that has just consumed a giant amount of ADAM.
- First, run up to the platform, where he is trapped, and stick a syringe into him to extract ADAM. He will push you back and start the fight.
- The fight is divided into three quite similar phases. Fontaine takes 3 forms: fire, ice, and electric. Contrary to intuition and various rules of video games, you do not need to "counterattack" the captured element. Just shoot, shoot, and shoot again-the hardest thing you have. Grenades will give you a lot here, as well as explosive bucks for a shotgun, crossbow or chemical thrower with Napalm. Don't worry about Fontaine's reinforcements.
- To survive this battle, you must stay in constant motion. Strafe, don't stop, and nothing's going to happen to you.
- Fontaine has 2 attacks: energy projectiles and a shoulder strike (in this respect, it resembles a combination of a Bouncer and a Rosie). Both are not difficult to get around, but they take up a lot of life points.
- Monitor the condition of your first aid kits and use the treatment station if necessary.
After each stage of the battle, you have to go to Fontaine on the site and stick a syringe into him. If you delay too long, you will have to repeat this phase. After defeating 3 monster forms, the battle will end. This is how you complete Bioshock.
additional note: immediately after defeating the boss, you can use a trick that allows you to consider the game completed at the highest level of difficulty Survivor. This can allow you to get an additional trophy / trophies. We described this deception in our trophy guide - check out the overview of the I Choose the Impossible trophy for this.
