Simply put, you can defeat Osmund Saddler in Resident Evil Remake by shooting him in the eye. Saddler’s eyes are his weak point and you can defeat him by hitting them with strong weapons like the Magnum Pistol.

The saddle boss fight is divided into two phases, just like in the original RE4 game.

Phase 1

In the first phase of the fight, Saddler will turn into a crab creature. In this form, he will have eyes on each limb and a main one in his mouth. To defeat him, hit the eyes on his limbs when they open. It won’t be easy, as they are constantly blinking and Saddler is always on the move. We recommend that you do the same as he has several powerful attacks. Having struck all eyes, he will stagger and fall. Here you have to run up to him and press the suggested button to stab him in the main eye.

As you move along the platforms, don’t forget to kick the barrels to get ammo. Also, watch out for red barrels. As you may have guessed, they explode as soon as you shoot them. If you time it right, you can deal damage to Saddler with them.

After dealing enough damage, the Saddler will jump high into the air and destroy several platforms. This will restrict your movement. Moreover, he will summon huge mosquito-like creatures. They can cause significant damage and distract attention. So make sure you destroy them right away. He will also jump on the high platform while you are dealing with the creatures. Make sure you avoid his acid spit attacks.

Phase 2

Once you deal enough damage, the Saddler will fall off the platform. But the fight isn’t over yet. It will turn into a grotesque form with huge tentacles. However, this step is a little easier. All you have to do is shoot the orange ball with his body inside. Make sure you use your best weapon like machine gun or sniper rifle. Deal enough damage and Ada will throw a rocket launcher at you. Now all you have to do is pick it up and hit Saddler in the weak spot to kill him.
