Naga is the third boss in Ghostrunner 2 , and appears in the mission "Something Lurks In The Sand". You need to slash down some enemies while dodging big razor blades and more, all while riding at high speed.

This boss fight has two phases, and we'll explain how to handle each one.

Naga The Sandworm Phase 1

During the first phase you need to dodge Naga in the wastelands, while driving at max speed (slowing down will cause you to crash). Be vigilant and listen to Kira's statements, as she helps you get through this ordeal and give you directions about where to escape next.

There isn't much to it, as this is pretty straightforward. Once Naga starts spitting acid at you, things will get a little bit more chaotic. The acid is marked as a red circle, and once the circle expands enough the acid will hit. In order to dodge this, you need to boost through the circles as fast as possible to leave them behind.

Now it's time to get eaten alive!

Things are about to get really hectic, as Naga the Sandworm eats you alive. Once inside the belly, you have to avoid big razor blades, acid bugs and more. But once again: Don't be afraid, there are plenty of checkpoints as death lurks around each corner.

Here are the most important tips:

  • Slash the acid bugs once they reach you or just shoot them down.
  • Inside a corridor with glowing-orange bulb-like things, slash them as fast as possible, as they indicate the weak spot of Naga.
  • Look out for red lights as they show you the way.
  • Adjust your position away from the moving razor blades to avoid being hit, and don't be afraid to slow down in this phase.
  • Speed up once you get closer to a crushing trap

Once you have tackled every obstacle and depleted the life bar of Naga, you finally reach the end. The only thing left is a final boost at the ramp and shooting your way out of the Sandworm - congratulation!
