Boss Fight: P.A.X.

Click here to see a detailed guide on this Boss.

Approach it from the rear hind legs and get 2-3 hits then dodge backwards to avoid its stomp. Rinse and repeat until your orange gauge is filled. Avoid dealing with it head-on as it can easily swipe you. Keep whittling down its health by striking the legs to topple it. Inflict strikes to its head to do some severe damage. It will rise after sustaining a few strikes. Fill the orange gauge again, then deliver some strikes to make it collapse again. Attack its cranium again and it will eventually fall.

With P.A.X. out of the way, board the train that will depart for Central Production B.
