Therefore, if you have played them, this new title will not be too complex for you and you will be able to move around without too many problems.
History of Resident Evil 3 Remake
Jill Valentine finds herself trapped in Raccoon City , in a story that begins in the protagonist’s own apartment. Due to the insecurity in the area, she will begin to move around the city and its surroundings. We will move through various areas, each with its own dangers. This is what we should know about each area:
- North District: The area where Jill’s apartment is is no longer safe and you need to get out of there as soon as possible.
- Center: On the main streets of Raccon City there is a substation that allows the city’s subway to start up and thus move around.
- Sewers and construction zones: Jill is trying to get back to the surface and to do so she has to make her way through a building under construction, where there are many objects to take into account.
- Police Station: The building is a sinister and dangerous place, but again, it is a place where we can obtain objects that could be useful.
- Subway tunnels and clock square: An area full of enemies and dangers, where you will have to use good weapons and strategy to get out alive.
- Hospital: Carlos and Jill are the protagonists in the hospital, although the need again is to get out of it alive.
- NEST 2: It’s time to put an end to Umbrella’s operations in the city.
Weapons, which ones should you use?
Weapons are another essential aspect in Resident Evil 3 Remake, as they are what will allow us to finish off the enemies we encounter along the way, not just the many zombies in the game. Therefore, it is good to know what weapons there are and what we will encounter, to know which ones are of special relevance.
- G19 Pistol : A standard pistol that we get automatically. A couple of shots are usually enough to finish off a zombie.
- Survival Knife : Another weapon that we get by default and that we should not underestimate, because it can easily finish off enemies.
- M3 Shotgun : Obtained at Kite Bros Railway in the center. An effective weapon at short distances with zombies, with one shot you can finish them off.
- MGL Grenade Launcher: It can be found in the safe room behind the first Gamma in the Sewers, although it also appears in the safe room in the Subway Tunnels. One of the most effective weapons to stop or finish off an enemy, so it is a great option.
- G18 Pistol (Burst Model): Obtained in the safe room in the hospital section from Jill. It fires three bullets instead of one and works very well overall because of it.
- Lightning Hawk .44 AE (Magnum): Obtained in the hospital, in Jill’s story. Another effective weapon, which works well and gives adequate performance with which to fight enemies.
- Combat knife: Carlos’ weapon.
- CQBR Assault Rifle: Fully automatic assault rifle, which is not too stable, but can allow us to finish off enemies easily.
Enemies, all their variety
As we progress through Resident Evil 3 Remake we encounter various enemies . Many of them are already typical in this saga, but it is good to know what we can expect in this regard in the game, to know what weapons to use, for example, when we face them.
- Zombies: A classic enemy, they are everywhere. Sometimes it is better to avoid them than to fight, especially if there are many of them.
- Zombie Dog: They are fast, but we can finish them off with a couple of shots. They rarely come out.
- Drain Deimos: A large spider-shaped enemy, but with a couple of shots we can easily finish it off.
- Ne-α Parasite: An enemy with a curious shape, but which we finish off if we hit it between the “jaws”.
- Hunter Gamma: It has a huge mouth, which can catch you, but which is also how we can finish it off. Gunshots, grenades, etc.
- Licker: They are blind and if you walk they won’t detect you, especially if you are a little far away. They move around everywhere, but you can hit them in the brain and kill them this way.
- Hunter Beta: Fast, lethal, and with a dangerous left claw that we must take into account. His forehead is his weak point, so we must try to attack there.
- Pale Head: A zombie that regenerates, but is no more dangerous than a normal zombie.
Puzzles, clues to get
Resident Evil 3 Remake leaves us with a series of puzzles that we must solve . In most cases, it will be necessary to obtain or find an object and this will allow us to solve them, so we will not have too many problems. We just have to be attentive and search carefully in the spaces we are in. These puzzles are more important than many think.
It’s not a waste of time, because chests and safes often contain items that will help us in the game, often weapons that we can use to defeat the enemies that come our way. So it’s worth giving some time and attention to solving these puzzles in Resident Evil 3 Remake.
Dodge everything you can
Resident Evil 3 Remake has introduced an interesting new feature, which is the perfect dodge . This is a fundamental movement to survive in complex situations, such as when we cannot fight directly or there are too many enemies. This movement allows us to dodge a zombie, so we will not be infected, and it gives us a certain advantage. It can also be useful in combat, so we can find a good angle or position to attack.
In order to do this, you have to press a button tenths of a second before your enemy’s attack reaches you . This button has to be the one you have assigned to dodge or the one you use to aim. Depending on the monster, you will have to vary the moment in which you use this dodge. Zombies usually emit a roar when they launch themselves at you, so this then indicates that it is time to use this movement.
The answer is immediate, because Jill usually does a somersault and if you are carrying a firearm, you will aim directly at the head and it allows you to shoot quickly. Also if you use other weapons such as a knife or a grenade launcher, this attack will be much faster on your enemy. The damage you can do to them is greater and in many cases you will finish them off. So it is important to know when to use this dodge in Resident Evil 3 Remake, because it will be of great help.
