Defeating The Boss in Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater’s Snowfield Showdown
In Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, the final chapter culminates in a showdown between Naked Snake and The Boss, his former mentor. This battle takes place in a visually striking arena, where The Boss, using close-quarters combat techniques and her preferred weapon, the Patriot machine gun, presents a formidable challenge. According to IGN, she fights in a style mirroring Snake’s. If she executes a close-quarters attack while Snake has a weapon equipped, she will disarm him, and disassemble the weapon and ammunition, requiring him to recover them during the fight, which is especially difficult in the snowfield. Once The Boss is down, Snake has an opportunity to attack with his weapon. A precision rifle is effective for long-range combat, but the tranquilizer Mk22 also works. However, an instant counterattack from The Boss necessitates immediate retreat. Alternatively, the AK-47 and other rifles can deliver quicker damage at a distance, proving more effective than the Mk22. The recommended strategy involves blocking her melee attacks and temporarily retreating before re-engaging. [Note: This text does not necessarily reflect the opinion of Portal Uai. Source: IGN.]
Challenging The Boss in the Remastered Snake Eater of Metal Gear Solid Delta
The events and gameplay mechanics described are being updated and reimagined in the upcoming remake titled Metal Gear Solid Delta, slated for release on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC. Chris reviewed the game on December 31, 2025. The game follows Naked Snake, a US Special Forces soldier during the Cold War, on a mission to extract a Russian scientist from the USSR to prevent him from developing a weapon of mass destruction known as the Shagohod. The Boss’s defection complicates the mission, as she aligns herself with the Soviets. After a defeat in the jungle, Naked Snake is tasked by his superior, Zero, to return to Russia, assassinate The Boss, and destroy the Shagohod to avert a nuclear war. The events of Snake Eater lead to Naked Snake adopting the moniker Big Boss, though his experiences with The Boss and the secrets he uncovers leave him disillusioned. Comprehensive guides and databases provide attack charts, boss strategies, item lists, camouflage tips, collectible locations, and achievement guides for Snake Eater.
