A few days after the release of Resident Evil 4, fans of the series found a way to skip one of the main battles at the beginning of the game. It is possible to bypass the in-game timer and not fight enemies in the village.
Gamers Sorekasho and Tactical_Banter on Reddit shared how to speed up the battle with the villagers. It is necessary to shoot the church bell, after that we watch a cut-scene with the bell ringing. All infected will leave the street.
You can use any weapon, but the easiest way to hit the bell is with a scoped rifle.
The action game also received a content update.
