Rekka is the second boss that players must face in Hi-Fi Rush. He heads the quality control department of Vandalay Corp. and has a very aggressive temper. Rekka’s greatest achievement is that her apartment has not had any out-of-production defects and she does whatever she wants to keep it that way.

Read on as we look at Rekka’s moves and attacks and share some tips and strategies on how to survive and win the fight.

How to Beat Hi-Fi RUSH Rekka Boss Fight

Rekka’s boss fight is divided into four phases that progress based on the boss’s remaining health.

Rekka Phase 1 Attacks – Verse 1

  • Load – Rekka charges towards you three times. It takes four beats to prepare each charge and a visual marker appears on the third beat. Take this as your cue to run to the side to avoid the charge. If she charges into a wall and hits it, she will be stunned for a few seconds.
  • Punch – Rekka closes her fist and raises one leg to deliver a super punch. This move also takes four beats to charge up your leg and can be used as a visual cue for when to dodge; when he aims up, the next hit will be the attack.
  • Stomp very hard – The boss raises one of her legs when a target circle appears and expands below her. She then stomps on the ground and lets out an explosion.
  • jump punch – Rekka jumps and lands hard where you are standing. He waits for the apex of the jump before dodging it.

Rekka Phase 2 Attacks – Chorus 1

  • charged charge – Rekka hunches forward and runs towards your last position. She can get close to your position as she prepares to charge until the third count, after which you’ll see a visual cue to dodge the charging line.
  • ground blow – Rekka jumps high and hits the ground, sending arcs of electricity covering the entire arena. The best signal to know when he will jump is when his fist is pointed at the ground. After the punch, she will be incapacitated for a few seconds and open to attacks. She will also lose her charge and go back to using no charge attacks until she charges again in the middle of the arena.

Once Rekka is down to 50% health, she will rip a panel out of the ground and use the electrical conduits to charge up her attacks.

Rekka Phase 3 Attacks – Verse 2

  • pipe release – Rekka grabs the pipes and throws them at you. It will be a minigame in which you will have to move between three lanes to avoid the pipes. Markers will appear in the lane where you will throw the pipe; a thin gray line at the beginning, followed by a wide line indicating that a pipe will be launched. It’s best to stay in the mid lane as much as possible so you can quickly dodge the side lanes.
  • pipe hit – Rekka goes to the exposed pipes and grabs the pipes that she would then throw at you. She can chain this attack three times, and due to the range of the pipes, it’s best to focus on dodging the entire attack first. After the slamming of the doors, she will throw both tubes to the side like a boomerang which will re-converge on her position.
  • Combo DDT – Rekka spreads her arms and raises them to the side. He then charges at you and if you get caught you will be subjected to a DDT combo. The best time to dodge is when both arms are red.

Rekka Phase 4 Attacks – Chorus 2

  • pipe twist – Rekka grabs a much bigger pipe and spins with it. Then she will chase you through the arena. The best way to avoid getting hit is to have the kite chase you across the arena and only use your dashes when it’s close. The spin attack lasts for a while and using your dashes early could still get you.

Hi-Fi RUSH Rekka Tips and Strategies

  • Since you already have Peppermint helping you during the fight, you should use her often and make sure your special attacks with her land on Rekka.
  • Try to use your Magnet Grab to close the gap between you and Rekka whenever she is open to attack. Her attacks make her move around the map so much that chasing her will be a hassle.
