How to Beat Mother Miranda in Shadows of Rose

Being part of the Winters Expansion and the Gold Edition of Resident Evil Village, Shadows of Rose tells a new story set 16 years after the events of Resident Evil Village, with Ethan Winters’ daughter Rose as the main protagonist, serving as the conclusion to the Winters storyline. Although short, Shadows of Rose has been praised by the quality of its content and players are enjoying the return to Castle Dimitrescu and the village (in a special way, however). This time, we’ll gather our strength and courage to face the final boss of Shadows of Rose that, just like the original game, is Mother Miranda. Here is how to beat Mother Miranda in Resident Evil Village: Shadows of Rose.

How to Beat Mother Miranda

Although Mother Miranda reprises her role as the final boss, this time she has a couple of tricks up her sleeve. She’s faster and less forgiving than before. Don’t worry, powered by the mold, Rose knows how to throw a punch (or how to throw a mold, right? I’ll show myself out). Here is how to beat Mother Miranda.

Mold and dodge

The key to this fight is patience and reading Mother Miranda’s moves. Whether there is a chance, unload all your mold powers towards her. When she tries to swoop you by getting closer to the ground (don’t worry, she makes a scene whenever she will try to pull this off) just dodge her attacks and continue using your powers. Eventually, you will knock her down, a perfect opportunity to unload your bullets onto her.

After this, she will turn the area pitch black and try to attack you by sinking into the ground. You just keep dodging, and the process will begin again. Using your powers, dodging her attacks, unloading your bullets.

Use the light to your advantage

Midway through the battle, she will begin throwing light balls towards you. Now, you can continue being a dodge legend, but I suggest you use your abilities and stop those light balls yourself. By stopping the light balls, you’ll regain some of your megamycete power. When fully charged, you will be able to use to throw a powerful attack towards Mother Miranda.

Once Mother Miranda changes into her final form, don’t get scared or anxious, the strategy remains the same. Keep dodging and using your powers (specially your fully charged power) and after knocking her down for a last time, use your stasis power and the fight will be over.

You did it, congratulations! Mother Miranda is gone, and Shadows of Rose’s story is over. Hope you had a good time revisiting the horrors of Resident Evil Village and learning how to beat Mother Miranda (once again) in Shadows of Rose.
