How to Beat Marlowe, the Final Boss of Hellraiser: Revival

Marlowe, the final boss

The last shop comes just before this fight, and it is your final chance to craft and buy. You will not need melee weapons, so sell them.

1. Shoot the three bodies on Marlowe’s back with the Revolver, SMG or Assault Rifle. Do not waste ammo on his main body yet.
2. When all three are gone he is stunned. Use Hellchains to open him up and expose his real body, then hit it with the shotgun.
3. At half health the fight moves to another part of the arena. Repeat the same pattern.
4. Finish him with the box when prompted.

PowerPyx rates this fight as easier than the earlier bosses.

Who Marlowe is

Marlowe is the cult leader encountered in the campaign’s final boss fight. The game-credit transcription lists Colin Marlowe, voiced by David Menkin. For the fight rather than the cast, go straight to Marlowe’s weak-point and phase guide.

The boss directory separates named opponents from repeat encounters: Bruno is fought twice. It therefore lists five boss fights, not five different boss characters. Plot consequences belong on the spoiler-labelled endings page.

Where this fits

This page collects one topic from the larger guides so you do not have to scroll. The full list is on the boss guide, keypad numbers are on the codes page, and the objective order is in the walkthrough.
