The Predator is a sizable foe, found currently in survival mode in the later waves of the game. It can also be found in the later part of Story Mode. It is capable of limited flight when equipped with a Jet Engine. and will shoot matter projectiles at the player. It is arguably the most difficult enemy in survival mode found so far. It takes multiple hits with any weapon to defeat the Predator. It has been noted to shoot rockets as well, which can be devastating to an unprepared player.
In Survival House, it will spawn from the Guard spawner at the far right of the map.
How to beat[ | ]
The easiest way to kill one of these is to find a bomb which you will get by finding a bird holding it in its mouth (these birds spawn when the Hamster spawn). Kill the bird then throw the bomb at the predator, be careful it has a huge explosion radius. It seems as you get further through the survival mode, more of the Predators will spawn at once, creating a more challenging experience without the need for adding harder enemies.
Another, easier way to kill them, or any other harder enemies, is to nest on the building in the center of the Survival map, then climb to the top, enemies will come into the building, you can then perch on the ledge of the hole in the roof, and you will be able to shoot all enemies inside, and it is at the right angle so the Predators cannot shoot you, and the hole is too small and high up for them to get to you, this is also effective against other Metalface enemies, when enemies temporarily stop spawning, go down and collect all the pickups the mass of enemies will have dropped.
Instead of destroying a Predator, you can alternatively use the Hack Device to take control of it. This is best achieved by finding a hidden spot where you are in the range of control and then hacking the Predator to turn the tide. To find the Hack Device in Survival you need to survive several rounds before it's added to the Equipment shop then it can be bought. In Story Mode it can be obtained in Trunkopia Enclave.
Waves of spawning[ | ]
In Survival House, they will spawn at waves 6, 7 and the final one.
