Resident Evil 4: Chapter 8: Walkthrough

Castle Battlements Pre-Battle Guide

Proceed to the Location of the Merchant and Prepare

Once Chapter 8 begins, proceed to the location of the Merchant and prepare for the upcoming journey. It is recommended to upgrade your weapons and gather items to avoid getting stuck along the way.

Proceed forward and defeat the Cultists in the Wine Cellar

Once you reach the Wine Cellar, defeat the Cultists. To progress the story, you need the Lantern that the enemies carry. Since there are many enemies in the Wine Cellar, it is recommended to defeat the enemies first.

Use fire barrels and chandeliers to defeat them all at once

Shoot the explosive barrels and activate the device on the second floor to drop the chandelier. This will help you defeat the enemies all at once and save Ammo.

Insert the Crimson Lantern into the statue after obtaining it

Defeat the enemies and once you obtain the Crimson Lantern, return to the front area and insert it into the statue. Setting the Crimson Lantern into the statue will open the door and allow you to proceed.

Proceed towards the midpoint and meet Ada

Open the map and proceed towards the midpoint to trigger a cutscene. In the cutscene, you will encounter Ada, so those interested in the story should watch it.

Obtain and insert the three lithographs in the Bindery

After the cutscene, obtain the three lithographs in the Bindery and insert them into the door. By inserting the lithographs that correspond to the patterns on the door, the puzzle will be solved. There are also lithographs with the same pattern on both sides, so try inserting them while testing different patterns.

Fight against the Parasites after avoiding the chest

After avoiding the chest, the parasitized enemy will charge at you with a dash. Use your gun to fight back. It is recommended to finish off the parasitized enemy, as a scorpion will come attacking once it separates.

Attack the weight in front of the Merchant

When you reach in front of the Merchant, attack the weight in front of the door. Attacking the weight will open the connected door, allowing you to progress further in the story.

Shoot the weight next to the drawbridge

Once you reach Castle Walls, shoot the weight next to the drawbridge. When you shoot the weight, the drawbridge will be lowered, but three enemies will appear from the back, so proceed while dealing with them.

Activate the devices on the 1st and 2nd floors and proceed

As you proceed, there is a device that switches between the sun and the moon. Activate them in the order of 1st floor and 2nd floor, then descend the ladder to the 1st floor and proceed. It's a puzzle where the doors corresponding to the device being set to the sun or moon will open.

Turn the device to the moon at the spot where you jump down and turn around

At the spot where you jump down and turn around, activate the device and set it to the moon. When you set the device to the moon, the door to proceed forward will open. There are enemies in the narrow passage, so proceed while defeating them with melee attacks.

Activate the device to the sun after climbing the collapsed floor

After climbing the collapsed floor, look to the left to find a device. Activate it to turn it into the sun. When it becomes the sun, a door will open, allowing you to proceed.

Activate the device to the moon Upstairs

Continue forward and you will find another device at the top of the stairs. Activate it to turn it into the moon. When the device becomes the moon, the door in front of you will open.

Proceed while hiding behind obstacles from the rooftop

Once you reach the rooftop, giant enemies will appear. Proceed while hiding behind obstacles to minimize damage when the giant enemies attack.

Activate the device to the sun after jumping down and turning around

After moving forward, jump down from the collapsed floor and turn around. Activate the device to turn it into the sun. When the device becomes the sun, a door will open, allowing you to proceed.

Proceed forward and destroy the weights on the 1st and 2nd floors

After proceeding forward and entering the room, destroy the weights on the 1st and 2nd floors. Destroying the weights will cause the cannon to rise to the rooftop, making it possible to defeat the giant and open the path to proceed.

Use the rooftop cannon to attack the giant and the large door

Use the rooftop cannon to aim at the giant and fire. After defeating the giant, aim towards the lower left and shoot at the large door to open the path forward. It's easier to defeat the enemies in front of the large door with the cannon, making it easier to proceed later on.

Jump down from the rooftop and proceed to clear the chapter

Jump down from the rooftop and proceed towards the broken large door. A cutscene will occur. After the cutscene, continue moving forward to meet Ashley and clear Chapter 8.
