Resident Evil HD Remaster - Every Nook And Cranny Guide

This is a complete guide to every pick-up in the HD Remaster of Resident Evil. It is designed to help you achieve 100% completion of all maps in order to unlock the Every Nook And Cranny Trophy/Achievement. We have listed each area in as logical an order as possible, including all items, maps and files that you will encounter on the way. For detailed descriptions of locations, see our Map and File Walkthroughs.

Our guide was compiled on Very Easy as this is the mode which provides maximum pick-up opportunities. If you are playing on a higher difficulty, you will find that your map will turn green to show completion sooner. However, if an area is still red, it is worth cross-referencing with our list as it is likely that you have missed a well-hidden item, map or file.

Enemies do not count towards 100% completion, so you do not have to kill everything on the way. Also, you are not obliged to use up planters of herbs or drums of Kerosene. We have included these items in brackets for your reference.

If you have successfully cleared all areas the Every Nook And Cranny trophy will pop up when you exit the elevator on to the Heliport. The Signal Rockets and possible Rocket Launcher are therefore not required for the trophy, but are obviously important to complete the game.

Resident Evil HD Remaster - Trophy/Achievement Guide

This is a complete guide to all of the trophies/achievements for the Remaster of Resident Evil. The walkthrough was made with the PS3 HD version (released in 2015) but is also compatible with the other HD versions. Many of these trophies unlock corresponding Web Badges and Icons if you are registered on ResidentEvil.net and have data sharing enabled.

This guide is NOT spoiler-free as we reveal all of the hidden trophies, so we recommend that you have played through the whole game at least once before using it.

We hope that our guide is useful to you. Please enjoy!

Platinum Splattin' 'Em! Earn all trophies. PlayStation only trophy.

Like Taking Candy from a Baby Finish the game on Very Easy difficulty or higher.

Not in the Mood to Die Finish the game on Easy difficulty or higher.

Take that, Zombies! Finish the game on Normal difficulty or higher.

Oh, the Horror Finish the game on Hard difficulty.

We're in This Together Finish the game with Jill and Chris. Start and finish both scenarios, playing with both Jill and Chris.

The Survival Horror Finish the game in Real Survival mode. This is unlocked after completing the game a second time (using Once Again...) with either character. In this mode, none of the Item Boxes are connected, which will require careful item management and a good memory/notepad.

Ghost of a Chance Finish the game in Invisible Enemy mode. This is unlocked after completing the game on Normal or Hard with both Jill and Chris or by completing Real Survival. In this mode enemies are not visible until they attack you and you will only see a pool of blood on the floor when zombies die. However, enemies are in the usual places, so a thorough knowledge of the game is invaluable.

Not Just Any Object Obtain the Stone & Metal Object using Chris. Use the 4 Death Masks in the Crypt and get the Stone & Metal Object from the coffin.

Herbicide Defeat Plant 42 using Chris.

Written Word is Dead Obtain the "Last Book Vol. 2" using Chris. After defeating Yawn in the Library, check the pile of books that falls out of the broken case.

An End to a Poor Girl's Misery Defeat Lisa Trevor using Chris. In the Altar, push the 4 stones off. It is also possible with enough firepower (eg Unlimited Rocket Launcher) to knock her off the edge.

You da Man, Chris Finish the game using Chris.

Grave Digger Defeat a Crimson Head prototype1 using Jill. Use the 4 Death Masks in the Crypt and kill the zombie that you find in the coffin.

The Key Master Obtain the Helmet Key using Jill. After defeating Plant 42 in the Residence, pick up the key in the fireplace.

Giant Snake Got Nothin' Defeat Yawn using Jill. Kill Yawn in the Library - this is the second time you meet him.

Where the Magic Happens Break into the laboratory using Jill. Use the Medals of Eagle and Wolf and take the elevator down to the Laboratory.

Alpha Team's Finest Finish the game using Jill.

Get Used To It Die for the first time.

First Kills Are Special Defeat a zombie.

Not Taking Any Chances Burn up a zombie. You will need the Fuel Canteen found in Barry's Save Room, then fill it with Kerosene from one of the containers (there is one where you get the Canteen). When you have killed a zombie, use this in conjunction with the Lighter (standard item with Chris, found in the Study with Jill) to burn up the zombie, preventing it turning into a Crimson Head.

Who's the Hunter Now? Defeat a Hunter. When you return to the Mansion, the place is crawling with these reptilian BOWs.

Bravo, Rebecca Save Chris using Rebecca. After entering Plant 42's room in the Residence, Chris will be accosted by the giant plant and play will switch to Rebecca. Enter the Chemicals Room and mix V-Jolt. Head to the Aqua Ring and use it on Plant 42's roots in the Guard Room.

What a Great Guy Save Jill using Barry. Playing as Jill, take the Shotgun and leave the room without replacing it with the Broken Shotgun. When you leave the room check both doors in the trap area to trigger a cutscene.

Delaying the Inevitable Save Richard with a serum. After meeting a poisoned Richard, head to Rebecca's Save Room to pick up the Serum from the shelf and get it back to him. Note, this is time sensitive, so don't delay.

That Was Nice of You Save Rebecca from a Hunter. When playing as Chris, after using the Spencer Family Emblem Key, you will hear a scream. Chris will wonder if it came from above him, so head up to the Study where you obtained the Dog Whistle. Kill the Hunter in this room as quickly as possible to save Rebecca. Note, this is also time sensitive, so don't delay.

Trust Him Save Barry from Lisa Trevor. As Jill, in the Altar, when faced with a dilemma choose "yes".

Sorry I Made You Wait Save Jill from confinement using Chris. Playing as Chris, obtain 3 MO Disks - Using the Yellow Gemstone in the Tiger Statue, outside the Visual Data Room and in the Visual Data Room. Then use them in the Passcode Machines in the 2nd Power Room, Fuel Storage Room and Operation Room. Once the Self Destruct Mechanism has been activated (or you have the Master Key), pull the levers outside the Prison Area and head down to the Cell. Check the door and free your partner.

Sorry About the Wait Save Chris from confinement using Jill. Playing as Jill, obtain 3 MO Disks - Using the Yellow Gemstone in the Tiger Statue, outside the Visual Data Room and in the Visual Data Room. Then use them in the Passcode Machines in the 2nd Power Room, Fuel Storage Room and Operation Room. Once the Self Destruct Mechanism has been activated (or you have the Master Key), pull the levers outside the Prison Area and head down to the Cell. Check the door and free your partner.

The Nightmare Ends Finish the game saving Rebecca and Jill using Chris. Playing as Chris, rescue Rebecca from the Hunter and save Jill from confinement in one playthrough. See above for details.

I'm a Member of S.T.A.R.S. Finish the game saving Chris and Barry using Jill. Playing as Jill, trust Barry and save Chris from confinement in one playthrough. See above for details.

Every Man for Himself Finish the game without saving anyone using Chris. In one playthrough as Chris, don't get the Serum for Richard, don't save Rebecca when she screams and leave Jill in her Cell.

Every Woman for Herself Finish the game without saving anyone using Jill. In one playthrough as Jill, don't get the Serum for Richard, don't trust Barry and leave Chris in his Cell.

Seeing Red Defeat a Crimson Head. Crimson Heads are resurrected zombies, faster and more powerful than normal, they are easily spotted by their bright red skin. You are more likely to encounter them if you don't burn zombie corpses.

Not Waiting to Exhale Survive your first encounter with Yawn. In the Attic, chase off or avoid the giant snake to obtain the Death Mask.

Deep Sixed Defeat mother Neptune. At the bottom of the Aqua Ring, after draining the water, attempt to grab the key and the shark will attack. Push the control panel into the water and pull the lever to fry the shark.

Spider Sense Defeat Black Tiger. In the Slippery Slimey Caves, kill the giant spider in the room with the web-covered door.

Don't Stop Running Finish the game in three hours. See our Jill and Chris Speed Run Guides for details. This will earn you the Unlimited Rocket Launcher if you play on Normal or higher.

Racing and Pacing Finish the game in five hours. See our Jill and Chris Speed Run Guides for details. This will earn you the Unlimited Samurai Edge if you play on Normal or higher.

CQC FTW Finish the game using only your knife (no lighter, Defensive Items, and stomping zombie heads). We recommend not picking up any defense items and setting the control to Manual to avoid accidental use. Avoid being grabbed by crawling zombies to prevent stomping. You can use V-Jolt on Plant 42's roots and fry Neptune with the control panel. You are allowed to use the Lighter to solve puzzles (such as lighting the candelabra to obtain the Musical Score), you just can't burn zombies with the Kerosene and Lighter. We recommend going for this trophy as part of a Very Easy Chris speed run as he is more resilient and suggest that you do not save anybody, thereby avoiding Tyrant on the Helipad.

Ink is for Squids Finish the game without saving. Do not use Ink Ribbons and Typewriters. We recommend going for this trophy as part of a Very Easy speed run with either Jill or Chris .

Break Out the Marshmallows! Burn up two zombies at the same time with the lighter. Find an area with two (or more) zombies and lead them to the same area to kill them so they are overlapping on the ground - we recommend either the Graveyard, Mirror Corridor or U-shapped Corridor. These areas yield more zombies on higher difficulties. Then you will need the Fuel Canteen found in Barry's Save Room, filled with Kerosene from one of the containers (there is one where you get the Canteen). Use it with your Lighter on the bodies before they turn into Crimson Heads.

Starsenal Obtain all weapons (must load grenade launcher with all shell types). These are:

Magnum Revolver - use the Wind Crest on the gravestone in the Woods, then take the 3 crests in return. Examine each and press the buttons to release the raised areas. Place them in the other gravestone to receive the Magnum.

Shotgun - in the Mansion, find the Broken Shotgun in a room off Rebecca's Save Room Lower Corridor and use it to replace the Shotgun in the hooks in the Shotgun Room off Barry's Save Room Lower Corridor.

Flame Thrower - as Chris, you will find this on hooks in the Slippery Slimey Caves. It can only be used for a limited time and Jill can not get this weapon.

Rocket Launcher - on the Heliport, Brad will throw this down to help you when you encounter Tyrant.

Unlimited Rocket Launcher - complete the game in under 3 hours on Normal or higher using either Jill or Chris.

Assault Shotgun - dropped by Richard in either Yawn's Attic (when playing as Jill) or the Aqua Ring (when playing as Chris) if you save him with the Serum.

Grenade Launcher - only available when playing as Jill, this is found next to the body of Forest Speyer on the Veranda outside the Mansion. Load in all three types of ammo (Flame, Acid and Explosive Shells) for it to count.

Self Defense Gun - found on the desk in Room 001 of the Residence.

Unlimited Samurai Edge - complete the game in under 5 hours on Normal Difficulty as either Jill or Chris.

Barry's .44 Magnum - playing as Jill, when faced with a dilemma in the Altar, choose "no". Pick up Barry's gun from the bottom left corner.

Passion for Fashion Obtain all costumes. Complete the game twice with Jill and twice with Chris for each of their alternate costumes. The BSAA costumes are unlocked automatically and were part of a ResidentEvil.net pre-release campaign.

Every Nook and Cranny Visit all places on all maps. Achieve 100% completion for each map (make each area green by picking up all items, maps and files). This includes the Closet (if you have played through once to get the Closet Key) and your partner's Cell.

Resident Evil HD Remaster - Chris Speed Run Guide

This is a speed run guide for Chris' story in the Remaster of Resident Evil. The walkthrough was made with the PS3 HD version (released in 2015) but is also compatible with the other HD versions and the GameCube remake.

There are many advantages to completing a speed run. Most notably, unlocking the unlimited Rocket Launcher, which will be awarded for a time under 3 hours on Normal difficulty or higher.

We recommend that you have a good knowledge of the environments featured in the game and the enemies you'll encounter. This guide is not intended to help those on a first run-through and is not spoiler free. We recommend an initial thorough exploration of all maps to enable them to sink into your memory.

In order to create an at-a-glance guide, we have invented a shorthand in which we give areas a nickname of sorts. For example, rather than "East Wing Save Room", we refer to "Barry's Save Room" as we feel that the memory of story events is more likely to jog your memory in a hurry than confusing compass-based directions. This works for us at least!

We do not list every area that you will pass through all the time, as we again assume that you have a decent knowledge of the game's geography and how to get from A to B. However, we have pointed out the most useful shortcuts and recommend that you make full use of them. For example, by simply unlocking the gate after the Crow Puzzle Room you can avoid many unnecessary enemy encounters. This shortcut is also useful if the door near Barry's Save Room breaks, which is more likely on higher difficulties.

Using this walkthrough, which was compiled over 3 play-throughs, including a knife-only run, we have successfully completed a speed run on Hard difficulty in 2 hours 35 minutes. Admittedly, this was with the Unlimited Rocket Launcher, which was unlocked upon completion of a Jill Speed Run. However, our item management in this guide is based on 4 free slots assuming that you are carrying a weapon and its ammo at all times. The Rocket Launcher did save us time, especially on larger enemies like Yawn, Plant 42 and Tyrant, but with 25 minutes spare, there should be plenty of time to kill things without it.



None of our speed runs have been perfect (enemies grabbed us, camera angle/control issues, human error) so it just goes to show that you don't need to panic if you make a small mistake and practice will make perfect in the end. However, do not dawdle (except when carrying the Fuel in the Laboratory) and do not attempt to kill everything. Especially on Normal Mode or higher you won't have time to collect enough ammo, so avoid what you can and use your Defence Items wisely. We have noted in the walkthrough which enemies have to be killed in order to proceed, so you can avoid everything else in theory.

We have not included herb, ammo or Ink Ribbon pick-ups as we will leave it up to your discretion. This guide is strict on item management for maximum efficiency, but there is almost always a spare inventory space for emergencies or an item box close by. An example of an optional, but useful pick-up is the Self Defence Gun in the Residence. It can only fire one shot, but is extremely useful towards the end of the game where your ammo will be scarce. You should also be aware that we have made few save suggestions so again, this is at your discretion whenever you pass through or near a Save Room. On the plus side, a speed run is a perfect time to try for the no-save achievement!

Don't forget that some items need to be examined or combined to create a final product. For example, the Last Book Vol 1 needs to be examined to reveal the Medal Of Eagle. We have written such cases as a flow chart for quick reference.

If you are prompted in-game to discard an item (usually a key), always do so as it will free up valuable space and the game doesn't try to trick you (as we used to think in the PS1 version!). You will not need this item again.

We have provided all codes or solutions to save you the time of back-tracking, but be aware that some puzzles have random solutions and we have indicated the steps required to solve them as quickly as possible.

Instructions in brackets are optional or scenario-specific instructions which may not apply to your run-through.

Please be careful if you want to take a break from the game as pausing does not stop the clock. The best thing to do is stop playing after you save and quit the game completely, reloading when you are ready to continue. We also suggest skipping cutscenes for the same reason - although we're not sure if this contributes to game time, it doesn't hurt, especially as you've probably seen them all a few times by the time you're ready to do a speed run.

As a final note, we suggest that you ask a friend to read the guide to you whilst you play if possible, just as a rally driver relies on a co-driver for navigation. It is very useful to be aware of your next few moves whilst carrying out the task in hand, as standing around working out your next direction would eventually rack up time. This is how we did it, but if this isn't possible for you, just memorise a section at a time until you get a continuous flow. By the end of it, you could do it in your sleep!

We hope that our guide is useful to you. Please enjoy!

Resident Evil HD Remaster - Jill Speed Run Guide

This is a speed run guide for Jill's story in the Remaster of Resident Evil. The walkthrough was made with the PS3 HD version (released in 2015) but is also compatible with the other HD versions and the GameCube remake.

There are many advantages to completing a speed run. Most notably, unlocking the unlimited Rocket Launcher, which will be awarded for a time under 3 hours on Normal difficulty or higher.

We recommend that you have a good knowledge of the environments featured in the game and the enemies you'll encounter. This guide is not intended to help those on a first run-through and is not spoiler free. We recommend an initial thorough exploration of all maps to enable them to sink into your memory.

In order to create an at-a-glance guide, we have invented a shorthand in which we give areas a nickname of sorts. For example, rather than "East Wing Save Room", we refer to "Barry's Save Room" as we feel that the memory of story events is more likely to jog your memory in a hurry than confusing compass-based directions. This works for us at least!

We do not list every area that you will pass through all the time, as we again assume that you have a decent knowledge of the game's geography and how to get from A to B. However, we have pointed out the most useful shortcuts and recommend that you make full use of them. For example, by simply unlocking the gate after the Crow Puzzle Room you can avoid many unnecessary enemy encounters. This shortcut is also useful if the door near Barry's Save Room breaks, which is more likely on higher difficulties.

Using this walkthrough, which was compiled over 3 play-throughs, including a knife-only run, we have successfully completed two speed runs in less than 3 hours. Our first attempt was 2 hours 53 mins on Very Easy and our second was even faster at 2 hours 47 mins on Normal.





Neither attempt was perfect (enemies grabbed us, camera angle/control issues, human error) so it just goes to show that you don't need to panic if you make a small mistake and practice will make perfect in the end. However, do not dawdle (except when carrying the Fuel in the Laboratory) and do not attempt to kill everything. Especially on Normal Mode or higher you won't have time to collect enough ammo, so avoid what you can and use your Defence Items wisely. We have noted in the walkthrough which enemies have to be killed in order to proceed, so you can avoid everything else in theory.

We have not included herb, ammo or Ink Ribbon pick-ups as we will leave it up to your discretion. This guide is strict on item management for maximum efficiency, but there is almost always a spare inventory space for emergencies or an item box close by. An example of an optional, but useful pick-up is the Self Defence Gun in the Residence. It can only fire one shot, but is extremely useful towards the end of the game where your ammo will be scarce. You should also be aware that we have made few save suggestions so again, this is at your discretion whenever you pass through or near a Save Room. On the plus side, a speed run is a perfect time to try for the no-save achievement!

Don't forget that some items need to be examined or combined to create a final product. For example, the Last Book Vol 1 needs to be examined to reveal the Medal Of Eagle. We have written such cases as a flow chart for quick reference.

If you are prompted in-game to discard an item (usually a key), always do so as it will free up valuable space and the game doesn't try to trick you (as we used to think in the PS1 version!). You will not need this item again.

We have provided all codes or solutions to save you the time of back-tracking, but be aware that some puzzles have random solutions and we have indicated the steps required to solve them as quickly as possible.

Instructions in brackets are optional or scenario-specific instructions which may not apply to your run-through.

Please be careful if you want to take a break from the game as pausing does not stop the clock. The best thing to do is stop playing after you save and quit the game completely, reloading when you are ready to continue. We also suggest skipping cutscenes for the same reason - although we're not sure if this contributes to game time, it doesn't hurt, especially as you've probably seen them all a few times by the time you're ready to do a speed run. As a final note, we suggest that you ask a friend to read the guide to you whilst you play if possible, just as a rally driver relies on a co-driver for navigation. It is very useful to be aware of your next few moves whilst carrying out the task in hand, as standing around working out your next direction would eventually rack up time. This is how we did it, but if this isn't possible for you, just memorise a section at a time until you get a continuous flow. By the end of it, you could do it in your sleep!

We hope that our guide is useful to you. Please enjoy!

Resident Evil HD Remaster - File Location Guide

This is a complete guide to all of the files found in the Remaster of Resident Evil. The walkthrough was made with the PS3 HD version (released in 2015) but is also compatible with the other HD versions and the GameCube remake. Some of the files even appear in the original 1996 version although text and titles have sometimes been altered.

We cannot guarantee that the walkthrough is spoiler-free, so we recommend that you have played through the whole game at least once before using our guide. We also do not hold your hand between files or tell you what to kill or use, when or how.

Some files require a key before you can enter the room they are found in. It is assumed that you would already have the relevant item in your inventory. Some files appear automatically after picking up an item so it is advised that you manage your inventory accordingly.

At the bottom of each section we have included a numbered map of file locations in case you are still having trouble finding them.

Please note that one file (Courtyard/Residence File 5) can only be obtained by using Jill and by making a specific choice in the game.

We hope that our guide is useful to you. Please enjoy!

Resident Evil HD Remaster - Map Location Guide

This is a complete guide to all of the maps found in the Remaster of Resident Evil. The walkthrough was made with the PS3 HD version (released in 2015) but is also compatible with the other HD versions and the GameCube remake. Most of the maps even appear in the original 1996 version although there are some new areas in the later games.

We cannot guarantee that the walkthrough is spoiler-free, so we recommend that you have played through the whole game at least once before using our guide. We also do not hold your hand between maps or tell you what to kill or use, when or how.

Some maps require a key before you can enter the room they are found in. It is assumed that you would already have the relevant item in your inventory. Some maps require other items before you can retrieve them, which we have noted in the walkthrough.

Note that some maps, such as the Altar, do not have a physical map to collect, they simply load when you enter the area. We have not included these.

We hope that our guide is useful to you. Please enjoy!

Mansion 1F





In the room with the statue of a Woman Drawing Water, push the chest that partly blocks the open doorway until it is against the statue. Climb up and take the map from her pitcher.

Mansion 2F





In the room with an unlit fireplace, place the Wooden Mount in the space above and use your Lighter. The flames will heat an impression of the map which will burn onto the paper.

The Wooden Mount can be found on top of a chest of drawers in the U-shaped corridor nearby (we have marked this with a W). As Chris you hold a Lighter by default. As Jill you will collect the Lighter in the Study with the chess board on 2F (we have marked this with an L).

Courtyard





In the Cabin in the woods, the map is attached to the wall at the top of a small set of wooden steps.

Residence





At the end of the corridor containing doors to the Gallery and room 002, examine the wall to discover this map. Be warned however, that the map is covering a hole in the wall and if you remove it, bees will swarm into the corridor and make a pest of themselves every time you go through here. The solution to this problem can be found elsewhere in the Residence. You can remove the map now though if the bees don't bother you!

Aqua Ring





After entering the Control Room, descend the ladder and go to the table containing a white board (this section is very well hidden and the camera angle can hinder you. This area is near the office chair). The map is on the wall beyond.

Courtyard B1





After escaping from the Black Tiger Spider room, examine the wall at the dead end of the corridor.

Laboratory







In the Visual Data Room, the map is on the front of a glass cabinet. It is clearly visible (we have circled it in red) when standing near the passcode input, but is impossible to see when you are right in front of it, as shown in our second screenshot.
