This article introduces Flash Grenades in Resident Evil 4 Remake! Learn how to obtain and use them effectively.
How to Obtain Flash Grenade
Crafting Flash Grenades
To craft Flash Grenades, you'll need 1 "Resource L" and 5 "Gunpowder" to make 3 Flash Grenades. To get the crafting recipe, you'll need to purchase it from the Merchant for 6000 ptas. Make sure to buy it if you have enough funds.
You can also find Flash Grenades as you progress through the game. Each grenade takes up a 1x2 space in your inventory, so use them if you have extras.
Recommended Uses for Flash Grenades
Defeating Exposed Plagas in One Shot
Flash Grenades are highly effective for defeating exposed Plagas with a single shot. To expose the Plagas, aim for the head. You can defeat multiple Plagas at once by using a Flash Grenade.
Also Useful for the "Shield Your Eyes" Achievement
Flash Grenades are also useful for earning the "Shield Your Eyes" achievement. This is best achieved in the "Cruel Knight" level where three Plagas appear.
Instead of shooting, it's easier to clear out crows by using a Flash Grenade. This is especially useful in the plaza where you fight El Gigante in Chapter 3.
By equipping sunglasses, you can prevent Leon from flinching when using Flash Grenades. You can obtain the sunglasses from the EXTRA CONTENT SHOP and equip them from the EXTRAS menu.
