Although the Resident Evil series isn't known for having particularly difficult bosses, there are still some who can pose a significant challenge. One such enemy is Resident Evil 4's Osmund Saddler, who was made even more formidable in the 2023 remake.

The mastermind behind the plot to kidnap Ashley Graham and the one responsible for unleashing the Las Plagas virus, Saddler is the final boss of this classic title. In traditional Resident Evil fashion, the fight sees him transform into a grotesque monstrosity as he aggressively pursues Leon on top of narrow walkways. Avoiding his array of attacks within these close confines is already challenging, but the difficulty increases when he begins destroying parts of the arena and summoning hordes of flying enemies.

With a massive health pool and the ability to inflict massive damage (especially on higher difficulty levels), taking Saddler down is no easy accomplishment. However, this task becomes far easier once Ada Wong arrives during the climactic moments to deliver a rocket launcher. 

All players need to do now is fire one last shot at the large glowing weak point so that Leon can deliver the killing blow along with another of his killer one-liners.
