How to Defeat the Butcher in Dead Rising

At some point later in the game, Jessie will inform you that Carlito has been captured and must be saved from a horrible death. Great, you have to rescue the guy who tried to kill you on no less than 3 occasions! Where to begin?

Instructions

1. Get a good mêlée weapon. If you've been reading any of our articles on Dead Rising, you probably know about the mini-chainsaws. Check out our articles on defeating Adam the Clown and Properly Utilizing the Mini-Chainsaws for full details on the best mêlée weapon in the game. If you haven't got one, go grab a katana or a battle axe.

2. Bring some wine or OJ. 2-3 bottles is fine.

3. Head to the Maintenance Tunnels via Leisure Park.

4. Grab the sporty, red car and drive down into the tunnels.

5. Take the first left, then go all the way to the end. Look for the double doors.

6. Head inside and hold your lunch, this room is freaky!

7. Watch the cinematic. The clock is ticking, so try and take out the butcher as soon as possible!

8. Charge the butcher, swing once or twice, then back off. His knife hurts! Try and avoid it, but don't get too far away or he'll start throwing knives at you.

9. Grab some milk from the sides of the room if you need it.

10. Watch the cinematic after you beat the butcher! Congratulations, you did it!

Tips & Warnings

• Look for the diagram of the cow on the wall. It's got a PP sticker on it, so find the right position and snap a picture. Make it a good one, you only get 1 shot!
