Guacamelee casts you and Juan on a quest to save the world, take down Calaca and his band of Ne'er-Do-Wells, and rescue El Presidente's daughter. This will be your guide to Juan's adventure, so. Brawling has never been more beautiful! The long-awaited sequel to the smash hit action-platformer is here: Guacamelee! 2 brings luchador Juan Aguacate out of retirement for a stunning new Metroidvania-style adventure, where he must face his greatest challenge yet - one that threatens to tear apart the very fabric of the Mexiverse!

The famous Mexican-inspired platformer/brawler is back in the form of Guacamelee! 2. Juan returns once again to fight for Mexico in his trademark luchador mask and wrestling pants -- and he's facing some the toughest bosses yet.

Although you're probably somewhat prepared for what these baddies are going to throw at you, there are still a few wrinkles you'll need to know about before jumping in the ring with them. in Guacamelee! 2, Juan will fight against seven bosses (instead of two from the first game), all of whom have their own styles of fighting and sets of special tricks under. Follow our guide below for all the info you'll need to beat them all.

Calaca

The first boss fight is the returning final boss from the first game. This boss fight has two phases. In the first phase, Calaca appears in a human form that uses a vanishing trick, which makes him really hard to hit. When he reappears above you, he will drop to the ground and send out a shockwave that can deal a lot of damage if it hits you.

Stay firm when Calaca disappears and wait for him to appear again. As soon as he drops down, jump into the air to avoid the wave. Then, quickly jump up to him and deal damage. Pretty soon, he will get exhausted and the second phase will begin.

When the Black Sun arrives, Calaca will transform into a giant demon, who will call down meteorites from the sky. Dodge the falling meteorites and catch them one at a time in the air. Then, throw meteorites at Calaca. After about 10 hits, he will be defeated.

El Muneco

The second boss fight has three phases. In the first phase, El Muneco will throw a few chickens at you from above. Just use the walls to jump up to him and hit him a few times. This will put him down and he will get mad.

In the second phase, he will send waves of chickens from above and both sides. Again, use the walls to protect yourself from the chickens. As soon as the chicken waves end, El Muneco will appear. This is your chance to run to him and hit him as many times as you can.

In the final phase El Muneco will call upon his zombies and send even more chickens your way. Kill the zombies and avoid the chickens using walls. Lastly, El Muneco will reappear, which will signal to you that you can finish him off.

Uay Pek

Uay Pek is an evil wizard that will make you go through eight different phases. With every new phase the area will transform and create various obstacles. Here's what you will encounter in each of them:

1. Fight Uay Pek himself. Avoid his magical missiles and hit him whenever you can.
   
2. Uay Pek will summon several skeletons, which you need to beat (no special strategy here).
   
3. In this phase, the boss will create copies of himself. Each clone will shoot magical missiles at you, which you have to dodge. Eventually, you'll need to beat all the Uay Peks in order to move to the next phase.
   
4. Now the wizard will summon one giant skeleton. His weak spots are his heart and head, so you'll be jumping a lot to hit them.
   
5. Fight Uay Pek one-on-one again. It's a short fight.
   
6. In this phase, he will summon some strange creatures that will appear only for 10 seconds each. You will have to kill them before the time runs out.
   
7. You will fight another giant skeleton.
   
8. The last fight is against a dragon. Avoid his charges and hit him every time he lands on the ground.

Zope y Cactuardo

This boss fight will pit you against two bosses instead of one. The first one is Zope the parrot. It's a really easy fight that will not take long. But then Zope will call upon Cactuardo -- a giant killer cactus.

Zope will land on top of Cactuardo's head. If you get close to Cactuardo, you will receive damage, since the giant cactus is covered by needles. You will need to jump off the wall and push Zope off Cactuardo's head.

If you manage to do this, Catuardo's needles will disappear for a few moments. Use this window to hit him and Zope. If you manage to do this three times in a row, the bosses will be defeated.

Jaguar Javier

The fight against Jaguar Javier consists of three phases. Each phase will involve another jaguar, so in the end, you will fight all three at once.

The strategy is very simple here: justavoid the jaguar's charge attacks and power beams. Try to hit all three at once for maximum damage. In order to do this, you need to push all three to the wall and pressure them there.

One by one, they will fall, which means that the fight will get easier with each knocked down kitty.

Salvador

The final boss fight against Salvador has two phases. In the first phase, you will fight against a giant serpent that will appear from below and the sides. It will shoot power beams, which you need to avoid, including the metorites falling from the sky.

Use every opportunity to hit the serpent in the head, andafter about 40 hits it will die. This will immediately make Salvador fight you one on one. He will create a powerfield around himself, proclaiming himself unbeatable. But all you need to do is turn into a chicken and hit him for the shield to fall down.

Then, the second phase starts. This time his tactics are very similar to Jaguar Javier's boss fight. He will charge at you, so jump over his head and hit him from behind. Repeat this process until he can't fight you anymore!

A full walkthrough for the main quest, featuring hidden items, boss tips, and a whole lot of spicy salsa!

UPDATE!

4/17/13: This covers the main quest from beginning to end.

Note: Be sure to check back for future updates of this guide, as well as a secrets section/FAQ in the near future.

Introduction

The walkthrough is very streamlined, simply because most quests are pretty straight-forward.

Using your map and exploring the areas is the real beauty of this game, and the key into finding all the secrets. If you've missed something, chances are you don't have the right moves/abilities yet, and you'll need to revisit (you're good to go after Sierra Mountain).

Opening: Agave Field

Juan is awakened by a disturbing knock. Turns out it is Fray, a monk with some rather charming news about the festival!

Fight Poncho using the appropriate commands to win $500.- Win the second set of moves in the gym to win a Heart Chunk.

Note: After you succeed in the first set of moves, you can continue training. You will be able to come back numerous times at the Chicken's Gym as you progress further in the game!

Objective: Stop Calaca's ceremony in the Temple of Rain

• Go west and stumble upon an Olmec Statue.

Note: Olmec Statues allow you to traverse quicker in the overworld. You must discover them to have them active.

• Go left and drop down the ledges.
• Run on top of the sleeping beast to reach the ledge above.
• Discover another Choozo Statue, which teaches you the Goat Jump.

Goat Jump

If you've ever played any of the Mega Man X games, this wall-jump technique has quite the relation to X's wall skid. You can pounce off the walls, making it much easier to scale new territory!

• Use the Goat Jump and Rooster Uppercut to get back to the door.

Objective: Go back to Santa Luchita and look for clues

• Use the Olmec Statue to warp back to Santa Luchita.

Santa Luchita (Return)

• Talk to Flame Face, who just so happens to be downing a bottle of Tequila.

Objective: Find a way into the desert to pursue Flame Face

• Claim the Frog Slam ability from the Choozo Statue in the bar's basement.

Frog Slam

This cool maneuver lets you slam and crush green blocks resting on the ground, as well as enemies!

• Talk to the Big Rooster to learn the Polymorph power.

Polymorph Power

This ability allows you to transform Juan into a chicken, or back into a human – any time you please! If you see a small nook Juan can't fit into, chances are a chicken can! You can also switch this spell by using the PS Vita!

Objective: Find X'tabay in Pueblucho.

• Transform into a chicken and use your other abilities to exit out of the desert.
• Before going to Pueblucho, you'll want to collect some items in the Forest along the way.

Forest del Chivo (Return 2)

Note: Some areas you couldn't reach before are now available.

• Enter the far-left house and smash the green block with the Frog Slam
• Talk to X'tabay in the underground room.
• Choose whatever comment you please. (This may affect your ending.)

Boss! X'tabay

If you desired some pleasure from this mistress, she'll immediately unleash an attack that's unavoidable. It's not much damage, but hey: you've really made her angry now!

Stay in-between her attacks, then follow up with a Rooster Uppercut (by far the easiest way to hit her when she's in air).

When her hair spikes-up, get ready to jump: spikes will form on the bottom floor and will threat injury to you. Use the central platform as this occurs to avoid the threat.

Phase Two

This is relatively simple. It's more of an up-close-and-personal fight, but you can easily evade her attacks by rolling through them. Be sure to steer clear when she turns red, though.

Phase Three

At this point, she'll spawn a clone of herself, and also cast a series of barriers covering her body. (Shields are generated randomly in this game; whatever shield color she bestows, be sure to use the appropriate abilities!)

Disposing of her clone can gain you some health, so concentrate on that first if you need it.

As she turns purple, leap to a far distance, because her lightning blow cannot be blocked.

After the fight

• Watch a scene pertaining to Calaca's past.
• Learn the Dimension Swapping ability.

Dimension Swapping

Dimension Swapping gives you the privilege of changing the Living World into the Dead World – and vice versa. As you stumble upon 'sparkling' objects and structures, you can reverse the world to create new pathways and ledges. Also be aware the worlds intertwine; many side quests require this technique and have different folk and townsmen!

• Use the Swapping technique to reach the Save Point/Store above.
• Obtain the Stamina Chunk and 500 dollars nearby.
• Go to the Happy Hongo house and claim the Luchador Figure (be sure to swap into the Living World).
• Give the Luchador Figure to the girl in the Dead World inside the same house. (Reward: Heart Chunk.)
• Enter the house with the cat and frog poster. Transform into a chicken and enter the hidden nook for $500.
• Scale to the top of the church's tower outside using the Rooster Uppercut. (Reward: Heart Chunk.)
• Go back to Agave Field and into Juan's house.

Agave Field (Return)

• Headbutt the yellow block in Juan's house to discover $500 in the chest.
• In Juan's basement, use the Swap ability and morph into a chicken near the soccer ball on the right.
• Head through the hidden passage and make it through the maze here (start on the right side).
• The maze leads to Chac Mool – and the very first Piece of Mask!
• Make your way back to El Presidente's Mansion.

El Presidente's Mansion (Return)

• Reach a hidden chest located behind one of the game screen's wall with the Rooster Uppercut. (Reward: $500).

Tule Tree

• The Tule Tree's entrance is in the southeast section (at the bottom) of the forest; check the map.
• Gain access to the Tule Tree area by using the Dimension Swapping and Polymorph Power on the lower-right wall.
• Discover another Olmec Statue.
• Enter the tree via the door.
• Work to the top of the tree's interior swapping dimensions.
• Use Swapping Dimension and Rooster Uppercut to reach a chest containing $500.

• Go through the door/passage.
• Enter the other door and swap dimensions to Goat Jump the walls.

• Travel upward by performing the swap, Goat Jump, and Rooster Uppercut.
• At the top, walk through the first door and claim $500.
• Reach the upper section with the Polymorph power.
• Defeat the wave of foes. Be sure to vanquish the Bombs first, using the proper abilities on their shields.
• Use the walls to reach the door to the northwest.
• Goat Jump to the Choozo Statue and learn the Double Jump.

Double Jump

It's about time, right? Though it's self-explanatory, the Double Jump is very effective in combining it with the Rooster Uppercut. So technically, you can jump three times (and even more when you learn another move in a little). Mario's got nothing on Juan!

• Take a shortcut to the room with the two doors below (you'll need to execute Frog Splash, Polymorph, and Dimension Swapping).
• Enter the door on higher ground.
• Roll, double jump, and uppercut your way to snag a Heart Chunk guarded by vines.
• Wall Jump northwest, then switch dimensions and jump the walls.
• Become the victor in the army of foes.
• Collect a chest holding $500 to the west.

• Dismiss the enemies roaming, then grab the Heart Chunk in the top-left corner.
• Enter the upper door back to the central tree.
• Acquire no power (lame-o!) from the Choozo Statue.
• Smash through the tree trunk leading to the Temple of War.

• Smash the red block to the northeast to leading outside.
• Go east and enter the Temple of War.

Temple of War

Tip: Shifting dimensions in this temple will change lava into water, or vice versa, so be careful! Also, enemies will have white shields, which can only be disabled by a series of repeated hits or succeeded combos.

• Navigate through the water/lava by shifting dimensions with consistency.
• Snag $500 in the upper room.
• Defeat the patch of enemies, then go west.
• Shift the walls, then destroy the red and green blocks.
• Hang onto the moving gears (hold Triangle, and use the Double Jump)to elevate forward.
• Take the lower path and dismiss the enemies.
• Stay low and collect the Heart Chunk in the southeast section (deploy all your abilities to reach it).
• Go northeast and hang onto the pencil-shaped objects to advance.
• Go east as a chicken through the small passage.
• Move upward using the pencil-shaped structures while being cautious of the spikes (Rooster Uppercut to the top-right).
• Stay right and Polymorph through the narrow pathway to collect 500.
• On 6F, find a Heart Chunk inside the eastern nook. Check the tip below.

Tricky Heart Chunk

On roughly the sixth level, a Heart Chunk is guarded by a bunch of spikes and a blade mechanism. How do you get it, you ask? Jump and hang onto the gray pillar that moves sideways. When it moves right, slide down slowly in each section to avoid instant death!

• On the seventh level, discover the Olmec statue.
• Use the large moving structure on the eighth/ninth levels to elevate forward.
• On the eleventh floor, find Flame Face through the upper path (NE) and defeat his minions.
• Go east and be rewarded Dashing Punch, a.k.a., the Dashing DerpDerp!

Dashing Punch

Take a deep breath: this is the move that destroys the blue blocks! It's about damn time! Anyway, this is also effective in reaching ledges and can be followed up with a Rooster Uppercut!

• Go back to the large moving structure and break the blue block on the top level.
• Perform the Swapping Dimension, Double Jump, Rooster Uppercut, and then the Dashing Punch (in that order) to reach the Stamina Chunk to the east.
• Claim $500 in a chest behind the blue block in the large moving structure room.
• Proceed NW and defeat the wave.
• Move up, head east, and then victor of the foes to win $500.
• Break the blue blocks to the west.
• Take the lower path and discover a room with numerous blue blocks.
• Blast through the blue block on the left wall and grab $500.
• Navigate through the spike vines by combining your new abilities with the old ones.
• Gather another $500 from the chest.
• Continue west, shifting dimensions to make it over the water/lava.
• Get through the NW tower using the rolling ability.

Observatory

Juan will discover Presidente's daughter, but also be pitted in a showdown with Flame Face!

Boss! Flame Face

Deal enough damage to him (as you would with a normal foe) to enable yourself to grapple the flaming demon. Use the Roll technique to counter his threats.

A single enemy will spawn periodically; dispose of them quickly to regain any health that is in need.

Keep in mind you have to switch dimensions when Flame Face or other enemies are pure white!

Hang on the walls (right below Flame Face) when he rests on the above ledges. Also, shift dimensions as the lava floods the room!

Back at the Temple of War

• Snag the goodies in the chests when you return, including a Stamina Chunk and $500.
• Learn the Goat Climb ability from the Choozo Statue.

Goat Climb

This is one heck of a move. While hanging on a wall, you can run straight up it. It makes traversing a lot easier, and many new landscapes reachable.

• Goat Climb the left wall.
• Fall down the big pit while collecting cash.
• Goat Climb back up the right side wall (where you fell) and smash open the red block. Claim the Stamina Chunk in this room.

  Back in Desierto Caliento

• Access the chest holding $500 nearby with the Goat Climb.
• Go outside (at the top level) from the nearest path.
• Head west and snag the Stamina Chunk guarded by a Cactus.

• Use the Goat Climb to reach the $500 chest on the hill.

  Objective: Head through the Sierra toward the Great Temple

• Gain access to Sierra Mountain from Santa's west section (near the Olmec Statue). Use the Goat Climb to reach the entrance.

• Go upward using the platforms.
• Go right and fly over the gap.
• Fly back to the original side using the top part of the wall to reach a ledge in the NW corner. Grab the $500.
• Fly back over east from the lower wall (at the bottom of the screen).
• Execute your Goat maneuvers to win the Heart Chunk in the eastern room.
• Become a chicken and go through the small path on the left side.
• Fly over each side in the next sections above.
• Pass the fly test through the cat statues (see tip below).

Tip: Perhaps one of the most difficult parts of the game, you'll run into a large section in the northeast part of the mountain. Numerous cat statues block your path as you try to fly over to the east side. This is more of a trail-and-error and will take some practice. Shift the dimensions repeatedly as the number of cat statues you see increase. Don't bother looking ahead – keep an eye on Juan to be sure to swap the world without getting stuck in one of the statues. The farther you go, the quicker your thumbs need to be!

• Continue east and fight Leopard Javier.

Boss! Leopard Javier

Javier will guard himself with different colored-shields (it's random, so pay close attention to what color it is). Additionally, his body will shift in dimensions, so do yourself a favor and change the worlds when appropriate.

As the skilled-warrior turns red, keep yourself in the air, because he'll dash violently across the screen. His rolling attack can be block, but be careful when he swings his bat – its radius is wider than it looks. Also, be sure to roll back when he unleashes his vertical fire wave.

Once you disable his shield, keep on the offense for a moment before he throws other threats at you. As he becomes stunned, use your Rooster Uppercut and try to keep him in the air as long as possible!

Juan Wins!

Note: Once you've beaten Javier, you can continue the beat down as he rests. He has some rather funny things to say.

• After the battle conclusion, meet the Goat Man.

Final Boss! Carlos Calaca

Form One

The first fight should be a breeze once you've learned his pattern.

For each attack he throws at you, he'll down a randomly-generated shield, so be sure to switch your attacks frequently. Also, swap dimensions as he changes his body form, which he'll do occasionally.

For defense, ensure you're in the air when he throws his ground attacks at you. As he performs his downward-thrust, roll and then jump to avoid it.

Don't go too crazy into attacking him for a long period of time – his offense takes a heavily amount of damage to your health!

Form Two

You really thought that was it? Come on now, you should've known this was coming!

His large (and cool-looking) beast form is relentless, but again, after some practice, you can literally knock him down in less than five minutes.

The most crucial attack you have to worry about is the fire he blows from his mouth. It deals tremendous hurt to poor old Juan, but it's the most predictable attack. He will pause and tilt his head back a little, which gives you plenty of time to duck under it.

The other attacks are more simplistic to dodge. When he spits the blue objects at you, just roll through them (he'll do this three times in arrow, so keep moving!). When the monster pounds the floor (while he raises his arms), pounce off the ground to prevent any injury from the lava that spawns below you.

The other set of attack deals with two waves of fire that burst from either the sides the screen or diagonally in the corners. You'll see them form rather slowly, so use this time to stand between them to protect yourself.

Now for the offense. Obviously, those flaming rocks are your best bet to inflict hurt on this beast. You CAN hit him, but it's not as effective as one would think.

Your first row of business is to disable his shield (again, it's random, and will change over the course of the fight).

With that said, be certain you're close enough to break his shield. This usually works by positioning yourself just past his arms.

When the shield has been deactivated, grasp the rocks that fall from above and start tossing them at him. There's no real strategy here – you can easily throw them diagonally/upward, and they'll automatically hit him!

Repeat these steps to become the World Champion..well, the hero anyways.

Winning the Royal Rumble

After you finish off Carlos Calaca, you'll watch the ending. Upon its conclusion, you can go back and complete any side quests or areas you've missed (in the same game).

You will also unlock the Hard Difficulty when completing the game once!

Special Note

This is the end of the walkthrough. Only some areas will be fully complete if you've been using this guide.

Because there are a ton of secrets to this game, I'm working on completing each area and discovering all the side stuff (including the underground mine area). Check back soon for future updates!
