Resident Evil 4 is a tense survival horror action game that blends strategic gunplay, resource management, and puzzle solving. As Leon S. Kennedy, infiltrate a remote European village to rescue the president’s daughter while facing a ruthless cult and mutated horrors. Master over-the-shoulder combat, navigate deadly set pieces, and upgrade weapons to survive escalating threats. Atmospheric visuals, adaptive enemy AI, and a finely tuned progression loop keep every encounter intense and rewarding.
Move, aim, and shoot from an over-the-shoulder view to target weak points and stagger enemies. Manage your attaché case, combine herbs, and craft ammo to stretch scarce resources. Parry and evade enemy attacks, then use melee follow-ups to conserve bullets and control crowds. Explore thoroughly, solve environmental puzzles, and collect keys and treasures to unlock new paths. Trade with the Merchant to buy, tune up, and customize weapons that fit your play style. Protect your companion by issuing commands, planning routes, and coordinating during ambushes and boss fights.
