The original Resident Evil 4 transcended the franchise's survival horror into action horror, which meant – as you'd expect – more action. Specifically, more shooting.
As the remake has kept the spirit of the original, you can be sure to expect the same sort of thing. Leon can't avoid a fight quite as much as he could in Resident Evil 2 – this time you're going to have to shoot, fight, and blast your way through hordes of enemies. And some of them are real bullet sponges.
A top tip before we get started: the higher the price, the better the weapon's base stats probably are, but all of these weapons can also be tinkered with at any merchant shop. Upgrades make your weapons more powerful and faster to load, and you'll get that invested money back if you sell the weapon later on.
If you're curious about the weapons you'll be using, we've got you covered (metaphorically, we're not shooting for you). Every weapon in the Resident Evil 4 remake is listed below, as well as info on where to find them.
A few of these weapons you'll start out with, but a few you'll need to keep your eyes peeled for. We'll split the weapons into categories (knives, handguns, etc). So, let's get started!
First up, it's time for the miscellaneous weapons (there are only two) that don't fit into the other categories, one of which is the traditional Resident Evil finisher.
Bolt Thrower
Rocket Launcher
The knife is a classic of the franchise. Very handy when you're right next to a foe (or if you're particularly low on ammo). There are a few in this game. Note that knives in this game degrade with heavy use, so you'll want to pick up any spares that you stumble across!
Combat Knife
Fighting Knife
Primal Knife
