Learn how to survive the intense house attack in Chapter 5 of Resident Evil 4 Remake. This guide covers boarding windows, using flash grenades, and defeating the Bull Head Brute.
Walkthrough
- 1As soon as you regain control of Leon, loot the Wooden Planks from the table and board up the ground floor windows. You can find more Wooden Planks by looting the corpses of defeated villagers.
- 2Prioritize boarding up windows as soon as you acquire planks.
- 3When villagers enter, aim for headshots to stagger them, then finish with melee attacks. Melee attacks near groups can knock multiple enemies down.
- 4Some villagers will revive with tentacles for heads. Shoot them in the head multiple times or use flash grenades, which are highly effective.
- 5Be prepared for close-range fights. Use your knife and be ready to parry melee attacks from armed villagers. Unarmed villagers require a Quick Time Event (QTE) to escape grapples by repeatedly smashing the interact button.
- 6If you're low on ammo, stay near Luis, who may offer more. Avoid staying too close to him to prevent attracting all villagers to one spot.
- 7Free Luis if he's grabbed by villagers by shooting the villager holding him.
- 8When a villager raises a ladder to the upper levels, run upstairs and kick it down. Repeat this for any other ladders raised.
- 9If you have spare planks, board up windows while moving between floors. You can kite enemies by jumping downstairs or run past them on stairs, especially if staggered.
- 10After the transition upstairs, the Bull Head Brute will appear. Keep moving and use your shotgun or rifle for maximum damage.
- 11Use hand grenades to damage the brute and groups of enemies.
- 12Dodge the brute's attacks by crouching, but only if no villagers are nearby to grab you.
- 13Focus on damaging the brute to end the attack. Upgraded weapons help, but you can return to Luis for more ammo if needed.
- 14The house attack ends once the brute is defeated.
Tips
- Loot every villager corpse for a chance to find Wooden Planks.
- Flash grenades are extremely effective against tentacled villagers.
- Use your knife for close-range combat and parry attacks.
- If low on ammo, stay near Luis, but not too close.
- Keep moving during the Bull Head Brute encounter.
- Use your most powerful weapons (shotgun, rifle) and grenades against the brute.
- Crouch to dodge the brute's attacks, ensuring no villagers are nearby.
