Boss Raiden is back deadlier than ever and much closer to resemble another Raiden player.

[@Omega-jg4oq]

The fact that it’s has its own combos mixed with Sam and Raiden combos makes it more believable, the game has a lot of potential to have more mods

[@Raim_169-02]

I agree with you tigo

[@DynoSkrimisher]

He also does the Zandatsu at one point

[@CoralCopperHead]

I'm still waiting for someone to figure out how to make Blade Wolf (and Raiden/Sam) not crash the game when boss QTEs not designed for them happen. I want to fight Khamsin with Sam so much.

[@MCcarlos235]

I want to imagine an AU where Raiden and Jack are having an "internal" conflict so they are fighting each others as illusions when in reality is trying to hurt himself but holding himself.

[@DaviLucianoRodrigues]

And you are unnable to use ripper mode since it's separate egos.

[@ventusmirus784]

I mean, this boss battle could be triggered when doktor turned off the pain inhibitors

[@kieri_6345]

This is so sick! You should totally add a music selection among the mods to choose between themes (The Only Thing I Know for Real, The Duel, Rules of Nature, and a Soul Can’t be Cut), that would make this perfect!

[@sp00ky-tv]

Ehhh I don't like doing music modding.

[@kieri_6345]

@@sp00ky-tv fair enough. It can be hard to work with soundtracks, especially dynamic ones. The remix you had in the video was awesome by the way! I also really liked the dynamic weather. Keep it up man!

[@thatfunnykekguy6377]

A mix of all of them would be perfect.

[@keyztroke]

@@thatfunnykekguy6377”My ears are ringing, to The only thing I know for real, RULES OF NATURE!”

[@sp00ky-tv]

@@kieri_6345 Funny. I've just released a mod which does that but with different tracks.

[@kelagy]

Should also set his health bar to 200% like Raiden to make you feels like you're actually fighting yourself

[@jzethotshot]

"You can be crueler than that jack"

[@surrealdestroyer854]

This is the most insane thing I’ve seen come out of this community. If stuff like this is possible, it makes me think how far boss customization can go.

[@anipartom]

No wonder the Winds of Destruction lost, fighting Jack is terrifying

[@jamesstent]

4:23 did bro really just use judgement cut end?? So sickkk

[@Amotivatedindividual]

I never thought I would see Raiden become a motivationed individual, I’m glad I was wrong

[@igornebov]

Judgement Cut is basically how Jack’s most powerdul Blade Mode looks outside

[@jamesstent]

trueee@@igornebov

[@I_love_bread_and_Hungry_Jacks]

The Ripper to Raiden: Come on Jack, you & I both know that you need me, the 2 of us would be nothing without our killing instinct. George was right, we should've listened to him.

[@user-cg8yz7sd3h]

The amount of effort and coding you've put into this is truly amazing.

[@necealneakte8522]

Developers: **left Raiden without a personal soundtrack** Modders: **gave him music from a completely different game of the same genre**

[@KrainXPlayz]

Dark Skies? A Soul Can't Be Cut? Return To Ashes?

[@necealneakte8522]

@@KrainXPlayz, I was referring to his personal battle soundtrack. In boss battles, their personal theme always plays, and Raiden does not have such a theme, since there is no battle against him. Although, in an analysis of mgr's music on one Russian-language channel, it was said that the theme of any boss partially also fits the description of Raiden

[@wewserlethaldude9]

​@@necealneakte8522Isn't It Has To Be This Way sung from Raiden's perspective? Particularly indicated by the lines "I carved my own path / You followed your wrath" aligning with Armstrong's dialogue after the fight, which reads, "You carve your own path, make your own rules."

[@necealneakte8522]

@@wewserlethaldude9 , I watched a review of the music from one StopGame resident, he said that the music tells the story of the bosses Raiden is fighting against, but also partially describes the situation of Raiden himself. But in fact there is no soundtrack that tells his personal journey. Most likely, it is precisely because his path has not yet been passed, and he continues to develop and become a person throughout the game, especially when facing bosses, when he needs to become a better version of himself and overcome.

[@ajayghale110]

Much more aggressive Tbh i think this is exactly what Sam sees wheen fighting Raiden, random heavy attack, slides and stuff. Cant blame him for not dodging everythong tbh

[@MGrey-qb5xz]

And sam still made raiden give his all considering he was breathing heavily after the fight, mad respect for Sam, maybe comes back for rising 2. It's not like those injuries would have stopped grey fox

[@ajayghale110]

@@MGrey-qb5xz fr, Raiden had to take a moment because it seemed like he was about to pass out, he even stays shocked by saying "He barely even had cyborg enhancements.."

[@duck6966]

@@ajayghale110 But well, the suit is quite a lot enhancements, hence why he was able to defeat prologue Raiden. Despite Raiden's body, it was stated to be much outdated, "obsolete", "Not suitable for combat" compared to sam's suit, so yeah, the battle is mainly about willpower and skills, which both of them are similar

[@alexeipinchen2025]

​@@duck6966jetstream Sam had no cybernetic upgrades. Hence the fact he literally gets tired and feels pain unlike cyborgs and metal gears.

[@duck6966]

@@alexeipinchen2025 But the suit does enhance him much more, obviously more than Prologue Raiden, if he is using human strength only he would not be able to block a Metal Gear Ray

[@karna5308]

Ugh, perfection. I loved the attacks more similar to the playable Raiden and the addiction of the visor and doppelganger attack, they make it too epic.

[@dimitrimoisiades7292]

I love the trope of a character fighting an evil clone of themselves. The boss raiden mods are so good.

[@gabrielaragon9562]

This is the definition of "you are your worst enemy"

[@stresslevel1009]

Sick stuff, music fits pretty well imo. Also wanted to say I loved the monsoon and sam vs raiden fight video you made, also very cool.

[@sp00ky-tv]

Btw the music is edited, not actually playing in-game.

[@stresslevel1009]

@sp00ky-tv yeah I know, thanks anyway

[@reenokop]

By far one of the most impressive mods I've ever seen for any game.

[@ashmeetsingh2685]

Fighting The Man In The Mirror while Bury The Light is blasting in background is a feeling that i never knew could be achieved

[@kurtcommunistform2ndphase81]

Raiden fighting his inner demons:

[@PoorlyMadePurpleSocks]

This is the last one, the ripper killed them all.

[@Deesbig69420]

I like how it also has dmc5 music in the background especially the Vergil boss fight

[@doodlehates_uttp]

Was that Bury the Light I heard? VERY fitting!

[@Boss_Big]

WE GET MOTIVATED WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥

[@Kaitomasaharu]

Holy crap I love hearing Vergil’s boss theme from DMC5 with this.

[@squiddog3660]

Whoever made this mod really put a lot of love and care into it, I’m happy that it isn’t just a jet stream Sam reskin or with another enemy’s/boss’ attack AI.

[@Rip_Exca]

The fact that the boss uses ligth atacks while runing for literaly 0 reasons, just makes it more accurate

[@Shadow-860]

Oh my... it's even better now great work!

[@s.d.illius5900]

Jesus this is awesome. Imagine this with his other weapons like the L'etranger, Bloodlust, or Dystopia. That would be insanity.

[@MrCherst]

I never imagined a daytime version of the R-06.

[@user-rp1pn4cv6u]

4:22 - When Jack has very much motivation

[@person6942o]

Bury the light wasnt what i was expecting to hear but im all here for it

[@RandomGuy-xy3zl]

never been more happy to see you back man.

[@Stresenbear]

This is the closest we're ever getting to a pvp 1v1 in MGRR

[@dragoknight589]

he's feeling a little motivated Also I've said it once and I'll say it again: Bury The Light fits very well for Raiden thematically.

[@jacky7204]

Woah, it actually starts raining just at the start of phase 3! I didn't even know that could be done. Adds so much atmosphere.

[@keelkun3221]

The first soundtrack is Mission 19 - The Duel from DMC5, i don't know the second one, but the last one is Bury The Light starting at the SSS Combo part

[@duck6966]

Vergil Battle 2

[@EnderouSama]

this is actually crazy. this looks so good i almost thought i accidentally clicked on a sequel leak or something cause it looks like it was always meant to be in the game. (now fight him as sam!)

[@brockmerritt1643]

Super awesome work, I can’t imagine how long it would take me to do this fight without taking damage

[@user-tf5qh7bc4]

2:33 This is Epic!

[@nathanc-h9007]

2:55 I didn't even realise the passive healing overtime

[@secuu]

Sheeeesh God job man

[@JDashington]

This just keeps getting better!

[@mudkipzuzu]

This reminds me of Prototype 2's final boss fight where you can play as the Alex Mercer skin against Alex Mercer

[@U.S_Drifter]

"Rest in Pieces", didn't know they made Raiden enemy voice lines, lol

[@PizzaWarrior29]

Honestly, the only mod I really wish for is something which makes the Sundowner's boss fight a match for his badass theme while not making him just continuously spam attacks or one hit kill you.

[@falconfrodo2907]

Oh, now he's aggressive, love it!

[@unknownshadow966]

Saying "Fighting your demons" never was so literal.

[@KurgzTheVerySmugBoi]

Please release the background music as a mashup I NEED it, its so good!

[@HereticYoshi]

i appreciate how you let boss Raiden show off his moves a good bit so we can see what he can do. some videos i see say they're showing off a mod, but then steamroll the boss and don't really let the boss do anything.

[@kyesickhead7008]

What a fight!!!! HOLY SHIT!!!

[@alexanderkrauzer]

4:05 - this was cinematic as f*ck

[@skryll5495]

This just materpiece bro made perfect boss

Great use of The Duel from DMC5

awesome, now add the rules of nature theme song to this

[@DatMentalGamer]

can't wait to fight him as MGS4 Raiden

[@sebestein09]

PLEASE DUDE PLAY VS THIS BOSS WITH SAM , idk why its Raiden vs Raiden in the first place tbh

[@RK-qv2jw]

When Monsoon actually forced Raiden to join Desperado:

now we can see how hard fighting against him was for all the bosses in the game

[@CoolgamerHi-op5vu]

7:38 , Motivation

[@HaCPaH0]

Great music choice! Would feel depressing if you fought raiden as sam while this track plays

[@Library_Guy]

I now completely understand how every boss lost to Raiden.

[@joesama8818]

Amazing

[@allen33and88]

Not gonna lie. This is sick af. I love this game and would love a sequel

[@ThrillerXero]

Now he looks like he's giving us a real challenge

[@duck6966]

Motivated.

[@SirWhitez]

Imagine the sam vs raiden battle with sam perspective with this mod, it would be so cool

[@PoorlyMadePurpleSocks]

There's some playable Sam mods which might be compatible

[@umfallenmuitoestranho4100]

That looks so cool!

[@theweakestbrazilian1674]

Amazing idea for a secret boss fight. The combos are great, as well

[@sergeanthuman]

i knew an ai making him into a boss fight would look sick as hell Yeah virgil's theme works cause ripper mode is motivated raiden

4:14 how the hell did you get the weather to change? Awesome update as always.

[@sp00ky-tv]

We figured the rain is just an effect in MGR so you can just load and summon it.

[@ammarbarto2996]

Bro used every vergil theme in existance

[@swagit4174]

It's time for Jack.....TO LET ER RIP!!!!

[@sparkthedog6291]

Is player actor swapping possible now? Cause this would go hard playing as Sam

[@Complete_Stranger7050]

Bro turned raiden into vergil 3 boss fight

[@P1erce_P1erce]

What was going through Raiden's mind during the Monsoon mission

[@ArthurCallahan899]

"The Man In The Mirror Nods His Head"

[@arushamshafeeq9428]

"I'm my own worst enemy"

[@beanerguys64]

No way its the man behind the slaughter

[@charadremmur8638]

In the head of Raiden before fighting the monsoon:

[@SteveBondFR_007]

Fun fact : I made with editing this combat with my voice for Raiden and he Sam Voice lines x)

[@ChicagoScorpion]

What type of Bury the Light remix is that at 4:25?

[@JustaDan-su5ox]

Mashup with Devil Trigger

[@smithwesson1896]

I can see this for a potential sequel, like if they somehow turned Raiden's Jack the Ripper persona into a separate cyborg

[@antoniotejera2303]

So this is what the bosses hear when they fight Jack 😂

[@DMCfan189]

I always thought "the duel" from DMC5 was something out of mgr

[@user-uz4nm6jl4z]

now iamgine fighting this Raiden as Sam

[@goldraspizday228]

no way💀💀, raiden Struggling with his essence

[@vanish3386]

impressive

[@UAE3Z]

best boss in the gaming history

[@terrarianender]

I feel like there's something symbolic about "Raiden" fighting "Jack"
