How to Beat Captain Pincher

If you’ve been wondering how to beat Captain Pincher in Astro **** due to the cantankerous captain giving you a swashbuckling defeat each round, we’ve got you covered! If you’re not sure who we’re talking about, don’t worry; we’ll be filling you in.

Astro **** has become a phenomenon for PlayStation 5 users, with many claiming it is a worthy contender for Game of the Year. This Captain Pincher guide will give you just a glimpse at all the incredible fun people are having in the game while enjoying subtle nods to classics from the company’s previous consoles.

How do you reach Captain Pinch in Astro ****?

Go-Go Archipelago is one of the shorter and more straightforward levels in the game, but that doesn’t mean Team ASOBI has phoned it in with this one. The developers have managed to perfectly capture the tropical beauty of a shipwrecked cove while adding challenges that blend in seamlessly into the Astro **** environment.

The player will enter the level on their glider and need to avoid debris floating on the ocean’s surface. As with the approach to other bosses such as Mecha Leone, Astro **** will need to first complete a set of challenges before facing off against Captain Pincher. The most important equipment required to complete this level is the Monkey Climber, which Astro acquired very early on after defeating the first major ******.

With the Monkey Climber equipped, Astro can continue to scale the level, using the hands on the simian backpack to also ******* the ******, slam the ground, and throw rocks at destroyable environmental set pieces. You will need to perform all these actions to create platforms needed to get through the various sections on the island and find all the other Bots scattered throughout the level.

Aside from a few secrets here and there, the path is pretty straightforward, and you won’t ever be led astray as long as you head to an area with enemies. The final stretch requires the player to climb a mountain, reminiscent of Kratos and Atreus’ ascensions in **** of War. Time your R2s and L2s correctly, and your Monkey Climber should be able to grab onto the specified handholds to climb.

The top of the mountain seems eerily empty, with just the platform present to leave the level. However, it’s when you step foot atop this platform that Captain Pincher emerges from the sand like a giant, mechanical hermit crab. Thankfully, just because the boss is big doesn’t mean he’s as tough and requires less work to beat as compared to the likes of Lady Venomara.

The first thing this boss will do is start to slam his peg leg onto the ground, creating a pink shockwave that needs to be jumped over. The ******* will also give Astro access to three rocks that can be held and thrown using the Monkey Climber. Chuck them at the wooden panels of the Captain’s attacking leg until all the panels have been broken off.

Once these panels are broken, you will find handholds on the leg, similar to the ones you’ve used to ascend various sections in the level with the Monkey Climber. Use these to get atop the pirate’s leg (yes, this is a Shadow of the Colossus reference) and defeat the two enemies on his thigh. You can then hitch a ride on the rail until it spirals you around right under his chest.

Here, you’ll need to be quick with your button presses to avoid his pincher slams. Wait for a slam, then quickly alternate L2 and R2 until you climb past his chest and make it to his *****. You’ll then be flipped onto a disc-like platform right by his face. Four enemies will jump on either side of his face and attempt to hurt you, but they’re easy to deal with.

Once you have free access to his face, use both L2 and R2 to grab the metal rod at his mouth and then yank his head clean off! If this wasn’t a ******, this would be a brutal, totally not-safe-for-children kind of **********. But that’s all there is to do for this Captain Pincher guide.
