Dante’s Inferno Walkthrough - Controlling a Beast

At this point in the game, you should have just past a series of spiky traps, obtained the Wasted Gold relic and absolve or punished a lost soul next to a saving point in the Greed section. If not, review the Dante’s Inferno walkthrough – part 5.

From the save point, open the door just ahead. Pull the lever on the right hand side to move a small platform down. Once there, pull another lever you see on the left to raise the platform that is located ahead of you. As you walk towards the platform, you will have a battle with a large beast and some other hell’s minions. Damage him enough so he will become stunned and you can take control of him. The RT button icon will appear. When the button is pressed you will jump to the top of the beast. Now that you are in control of him, wipe out the remaining hell’s minions with the beast’s attack actions. When the area is clear walk the beast to the back of the area to push a large block (RB). Once a path is revealed, walk through to climb up a wall. Climb across to the left to reach another area where you can climb down. Use the beast to kill off enemies that will appear. Note: The fire and arm slam attacks work really well. After this look for a block that will be located on the left. Pull it to the right side of the room where you see a square outline on the ground. Once placed there, a statue in the middle will move down. Go back to the wall where you came into the room. Climb back up and through the area that is no longer being blocked by the statue. Keep going until you get to an area where you can climb down. From here you will fight some more enemies. Wipe them out.

Dante’s Father - Boss Battle

At this point in the Dante’s Inferno walkthrough, you will now have an encounter with Dante’s father. This is a fairly easy fight. Avoid his attacks. Use the Holy Cross to stun him from a distance and then use scythe attacks for more damage. Once you kill him you will receive the Sins of the Father magic pendant. This can help protect Dante from taking too much damage. You will also get the Eye of Alighiero relic.

At the back of this room is another door, a healing fountain and a Beatrice statue. Save your game.
