The Leviathan has two methods of attacking.

After it was defeated again, the creature finally died and drifted into space as a lifeless mass.

Isaac had to fight and remove it from the antenna for Kendra Daniels to contact the USM Valor, practically replacing The Slug as a boss. However, after it was dumped into space upon being defeated by Isaac, it clung onto the Ishimura's communication antenna, returning as the Leviathan Remnant, essentially taking the place of The Slug. In the remake, the Leviathan's background and placement remains mostly the same as in the original. Clarke was successful in cleansing the air on the deck and also mixing a poisonous substance capable of killing the beast. However, the poison was short of being truly effective and Clarke was compelled to solve the matter by force.Įntering the Food Storage area which the poison granted Clarke access to by weakening the Leviathan to some extent, Clarke drew arms and killed the creature.

Shortly after this, Isaac Clarke, advised about the Leviathan by Kendra Daniels, arrived on the deck and was informed by Hammond about the creature's whereabouts. Elizabeth Cross encountered the beast and dubbed it with its name.ĬEC agent Zach Hammond also encountered the Leviathan as the Hydroponics Deck lost all of the breathable air. The shipboard oxygen levels became critical as a result, and with the creation of poison-exuding Necromorphs known as the Wheezers, the Hydroponics Deck became unable to support human life. Shortly after, the tracts of the Corruption began to spread at an exponential rate in close proximity to the Leviathan and proceeded to overtake much of the deck. Another possibility is that that it was extracted from the planet along with the tectonic load that the Ishimura lifted with its gravity tethers, as this would make it feasible for it to have floated onto the ship on its own.Īfter colliding with the ship, the Leviathan made its way into the Hydroponics Deck and barricaded itself inside the Food Storage facility. This would account for the additional mass it has, along with the contents of Food Storage. The Leviathan collided with the USG Ishimura while drifting through space. The origin of the creature and how it ended up in space is a mystery, though it is possible that it was ejected from the surface of Aegis VII by the Hive Mind and was initially made up purely of the colonists' biomass.
