10 Hardest Bosses In Resident Evil History

10. Yawn - Resident Evil & REmake

It seems only appropriate that we kick things off with the very first boss players encountered way back in 1996.

During your ill-fated excursion throughout the Spencer Mansion, you had to collect all manner of keys and items to open up new pathways full of certain death. Eventually, you had no choice but to explore the incredibly foreboding attic and lo-and-behold, were greeted by the gargantuan serpent known as Yawn.

For those who were still struggling to get to grips with the tank controls, Yawn posed quite a challenge. Its strikes are fast and it has a tendency to fill up a fair chunk of the arena, often trapping you in a corner before sinking its fangs into you.

It's entirely possible to simply dash to the end of the room and grab the key item, but unless you're able to pull off some pro-gamer magic, Yawn will trap you and you will die. Play it safe however and it can be toppled, provided you've got enough ammo to take it out.

Veterans of the series may scoff at this inclusion but cast your minds back for a moment to your first trip into the attic.

Bloody terrifying wasn't it?!
