The next instalment of the Resident Evil series takes us to Africa where the
origins of the virus are to be discovered. You will take control of a returning
character from the series, Chris Redfield. Being a huge fan of the series I
could not resist the urge to present you with a complete Guide to enhance your
own experience. I hope you enjoy the Guide, which will be as spoilerfree as
possible, and hopefully the game will bring you tons of entertainment.
This Guide will cover the Demo Version of the game. A full Guide will be
available for you to read shortly after the game's english release. I know it's
a fairly critical claim to say that I can present a better Guide to you than the
Official Strategy Guide, but I'm just going to push myself to the limit and see
what I can come up with. An enhanced Guide with screenshot and video support is
also in the planning.
Key features of the Guide:
For Xbox 360 and PS3 both
Covers all items and collectibles
Do optional things as soon as possible
Optional things integrated into the walkthrough

Advanced Controls:
==================
o Quick Turn: Xbox 360: [Left Stick + A]. PS3: [Left Stick + X].
------------- If you press Left to the back and press A or X at the same time,
your character will quickly turn around. This is extremely useful, and one of
the reasons why the original Resident Evil 1 and 2 are harder; They did not
have this function yet.
o Moving Inventory Items: If you want to re-organize your inventory, highlight
------------------------- an item you want to move somewhere else and press
Square. You can now place the item in one of your other slots. This is useful
especially if you wish to put items in the fast-equip slots Up/Down/Left/Right.
o Interaction: This is extremely straightforward and requires little explanation
-------------- but whenever the game promts you to press a button on screen, you
can either jump over or off something, use a special move, push a cabinet, open
doors (press A or X twice to kick it in).
o 'Window Knifing': This can be useful at times to conserve ammo. Stand in
------------------- front of a window and you'll be able to hit any Majinis that
try to come through the window, while they're having trouble hitting you and
getting through the window.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ABSTRACT:
=========
o Use hazardous objects around you
o Keep track of your partner's ammo
o Grab everything and look for items
o Dying Status requires immediate action
o Try to stun your enemies and use Melee attacks
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
o Destructible & Advantageous surroundings objects:
===================================================
There are various objects which you can use to your advantage to harm your
enemies in RE5. These objects often also cause a stun to the enemy, which you
can use to your advantage by using melee attacks. Below is a list of these
objects.
Transformer Box
---------------
These are the electricity boxes hanging at wooden poles - they look sparky, and
they actually are. If you shoot them off when an enemy is standing/running
underneath it, you'll have harmed the enemy effectively.
Explosive Barrel
----------------
These red barrels are a returning object and explode when shot. Especially
useful for groups of Majinis or Mini-Bosses, but you'll want to be a few meters
away from the blast, and so does your partner. Mind your fire!
Oil Barrel Stacks
-----------------
These look like a few smaller barrels stacked onto each other. When shot they
ignite fire in a fair radius, burning the surrounding enemies.
o Keep track of your partner's ammo:
====================================
The amount of ammo for your partner's ammo is displayed twice: Once for the clip
which is displayed in green next to the weapon. The rest of your partners ammo
for their equipped weapon is listed next to the small bullet icon, either above
or under their name. If your partner runs out of ammo and you have some that
you can't use, it's better to let them have it.
o Random Items:
===============
Wooden Crates, Wooder Barrels, Fruit; These are the kinds of things you'll want
to destroy with you knife to grab the loot that's inside. This kind of loot is
random and will therefore be displayed in the guide as either [CRATE], [BARREL],
[FRUIT]. Fixed items are exactly pinpointed in the walkthrough section, and
some items are fixed even in Barrels, etc. This will be pointed out as well.
o Dropped Items:
================
Enemies can randomly drop items you can pick up.
o Loot Type:
============
There are various types of loot which you can recognize by the color. The
following colors represent these types of loot:
.-----.-------------------------.
|Color|Type of Loot: |
|=====|=========================|
|Blue |Valuable Gems, Gold, etc.|
|Green|Restorative Items (Herbs)|
|Red |Ammunition |
|White|Key Items |
'-----'-------------------------'
o Dying Status means: Take Action .. NOW!
=========================================
If you or your partner fall into the Dying Status it will not be possible for
them to heal themselves. The only thing they can do is slowly drag themselves
away from the danger. Partner help is immediately required, otherwise you may
soon view the game over screen. You can do one of the following:
1. Heal your partner with a Herb - this is the preferred option.
2. Heal your partner with an adrenalin shot. These will be used if you don't
have any herbs in your inventory and their healing power is small. However,
these shots are infinite in supply, so they can be quite a .. life saver!
o Stunning Enemies:
===================
This isn't about the graphical detail of the Majinis - which indeed looks quite
stunning to me - but more so about how to stagger your foes and taking advantage
of this. Headshots often stagger a Majini, but so can a shot to the legs or
arms. When an enemie is staggered and you're standing nearby (or when you get
nearby) you can hit the interaction button to perform a melee attack.
You can stun a Majini in the following ways:
.------------.-----------------------------------------------------------------.
|Target Area:|Stun effects: |
|============|=================================================================|
| Head |1. Majini will grab his face and put a few steps for/backward. |
| |2. Majini will look downward. |
|------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
| Arms |1. Majini will grab his shot arm. |
| |2. Majini will grab his shot arm and leans forward. |
|------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
| Legs |1. When shot in lower leg, Majini will fall to his knees. |
| |2. When shot in upper leg, Majini will grab their shot leg. |
| |3. When shot in legs while running, the Majini will fall. |
'------------'-----------------------------------------------------------------'
All stuns can be used to your advantage by using a melee attack. These are
covered in this section.

You start out with the M92F Handgun, 20 bullets in total, a Green Herb and the
Ithaca M37 Shotgun. Sheva has the same inventory except instead of a Shotgun
she has the S75 Rifle. Keep this in mind when picking up ammo; It's best to
automatically command Sheva to pick up this type of ammo, unless you snatch or
swap her rifle. You can exchange items, but keep in mind that she'll be backing
you up so she needs the ammo just as much as you do.
Walk down the linear path and drop down. Investigate the notification on the
crate, which explains how dying works. Such a lovely subject. As soon as you
enter the building a cutscene will play and shortly after it's go time, many
majinis will quickly be headed for the house.
Act fast! Grab the [HANDGUN BULLETS] lying in the corner, and examine the
drawers under the television for another pack of [HANDGUN BULLETS]. Destroy the
[CRATE] and [FRUIT] in the other corner by using your knife to find more items.
Push the two cabinets so that they block the larger window and the
door (or you can order your partner to push one of them - this is even faster).
Lastly, grab a [HAND GRENADE] by slashing the fruit near the window. Now it's
time to take the majinis one by one, shoot through the smaller windows.
Note: Majini's will drop items that you'll want to collect.
Things will get rough soon, so you'll want to make extremely good use of your
scarce ammunition, shooting only the heads of the majinis. It's only a matter
of time before they break through the roof and the cabinets, as well as the gate
outside: The executioner will slam through it. He's the one to be extremely
wary of as one slash of his axe means an almost-instant death.
----- MINI BOSS: EXECUTIONER ---------------------------------------------------
He has several attacks you want to be careful of:
1. Overhead swing: Commonly used, when hit this results in the dying status so
be extremely careful. He holds the axe behind him if he plans on doing this.
2. Horizontal swing: He can swing the axe horizontally, giving him quite an
attack range.
3. Horizontal Rage swings: When he gets low on health he will swing the axe
repeatedly. Back away if he does this.
4. Grab-Choke: He can grab one of your characters and choke them. Help your
partner or ask for help whenever this happens. You can also attempt to break
free, but it'll cost more time and is harder to do.
He's got a fair amount of health so you'll want to use everything on him that
you've possibly got at this point. Grenades works best, followed by explosive
barrels, and lastly Shotgun blasts to his head followed by a melee attack.
Alternatively you can empty the Machine Gun in his head and once again use melee
attacks. Resort to the handgun only when you're out of options.
There are three locations where the executioner will not bother you:
1. Climb the top of the first building.
2. Move inside the bus and stay in the middle.
3. On top of the bus, and on the platform to the left of the bus.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Get out of the house and you should hear something from Kirk, the chopper pilot.
Basically your goal is to survive until he can clear the way for you up north.
You'll hear one more time from him before he finally arrives, which sort of
tells you that you're about 2/3rd through. In total you'll have to wait around
8 minutes or so, keep this in mind.
Here are some exploration suggestions:
o You can actually get to the second floor and on top of the building you start
out in. Head through the gate that the Executioner has slammed open, and move
left. You can climb a ladder if you jump over the wooden fence or walk around
this. Follow the path back to the house.
You'll find a [WOODEN BARREL], [WOODEN CRATE with HANDGUN AMMO], more [HANDGUN
AMMO] and a [GREEN HERB]. Don't jump down just yet, instead climb the ladder
to the top of the building to find [HAND GRENADES x3]. From this position you
can take out the Executioner fairly easy by using the Rifle (aim for his head)
or by throwing grenades at him. You won't be bothered by many Majini up here,
but expect a few to drop by and say hi.
o You can enter the bus and loot the two [BARRELS].
o The house to the left, located behind the bus holds [HANDGUN AMMO x3],
two [BARRELS] and a [HERB]. An other item to search for is the [MACHINE GUN
AMMO] in the drawer.
o There is a house on the northeast/right area which contains a [HAND GRENADE]
and a [INCENDIARY GRENADE] on the shelves. You can also find [HANDGUN AMMO]
if you search the blue cabinet on the right of these shelves, and [MACHINE GUN
AMMO] can be found in the corner. There's also a [WOODEN CRATE] here.
Note: Breakable stands throughout the area will reveal a [RANDOM ITEM] when they
are destroyed.
Head to the north of the area and note the inflammable stack of barrels that you
can greatly use to your advantage. With the horde behind you, make a quick turn
and shoot when most are close the the barrels. This will disable a good few of
them. Go inside the bus and destroy the barrels if you hadn't already done so.
Continue to the northeast of the area and open the suitcase in the corner. This
holds the [VZ61 SMG] which you can give to Sheva so you don't have to worry
about her ammo for a while. The executioner will probably be on your tails
once again, so it's time to move to the west from here. The fruit contains a
[HAND GRENADE] but more importantly you can move to higher ground from here.
If you need it, grab the [HANDGUN AMMO] from the corner and loot the [WOODEN
BARREL] while you're at it.
Do so and jump over to the platform past the barrel. Shake off a large portion
of the horde by blowing up the barrel. Grab the [GREEN HERB] on this platform
and keep the majinis at a distance. The good thing is that the executioner can
*not* get to you as long as you're here. You can also jump on the bus for a
somewhat larger movement area, and there's a [CRATE] on the barrel at the end.
You should be able to hold out a long time from here, long enough until the
chopper arrives.
Note: If you want to kill the executioner, your best bet is to use a few
grenades on him. Whenever he crouches, run toward him to sort out an
uppercut. When you run out of grenades, resort to the Shotgun and deliver
two shots at his head to make him kneel. Keep this up and you'll down him
soon enough. It's possible to knock a transformer box off one of the
shacks near the southern gate, you can use this to your advantage. If
you manage to kill the executioner, grab the [GOLD RING] from his body.
This can be sold for money.

Straight in front of you lies a note that explains how the inventory works and
how you can swap items. Head into the left (north) alley and kill the majini
near the window. Two more majini's reside in the building. Before hopping in,
check the [WOODEN CRATE] at the end of the alley.
The building must house an awful smell, especially seeing how you can inspect a
chainsaw and a rotten animal corpse that have been lying there for a while.
Collect the [HANDGUN BULLETS] from the shelves and head outside. Grab the
[GREEN HERB] and turn left to find two [WOODEN CRATES].
Proceed northeast and encounter flying creatures that are causing havoc to the
chopper. After disposing of them, lend Sheva a hand near the ladder for her to
collect the items on top of the building.
2ND PLAYER:
===========
You can find [RIFLE AMMO], [MACHINE GUN AMMO], [HANDGUN AMMO], a [WOODEN
BARREL] and [WOODEN CRATE] up here. She can also provide excellent cover from
here as you proceed to take down a group of majinis.
===========
Don't miss the [WOODEN BARREL] while exploring the ground level.
Once inside the building, check out the restroom to your left and kill the
lurking majini. Grab [HANDGUN BULLETS] from where he was standing and loot the
[WOODEN BARREL]. Make your way to the next room, in which you'll find another
majini in the shadows as you are tempted to grab the [RED HERB]. There's also
a [WOODEN BARREL] nearby.
Apparently the double doors are locked from the outside, so you'll have to make
your way upstairs. Kill a total of three majinis here and search around for two
[HAND GRENADES]. Head to the second floor and loot the [2 BARRELS], grab the
[HANDGUN BULLETS] from the shelves and a [GREEN HERB] from the floor.
Before you lend Sheva a hand to jump over to the building across the street,
make sure she has at least one herb and a decent amount of ammunition. Also
turn around and look up and check out the right part of the ledge. Aim at the
glowing [BSAA MEDAL] and shoot it (these will unlock things in the full game).
2ND PLAYER:
===========
If you are playing with two players, don't miss the [WOODEN BARREL] before you
have Sheva jump down. As Sheva, quickly make your way downstairs and unlock the
double doors of the other building, allowing Chris to join the fun. It's also
possible to shoot the lock from a distance - even from the building.
===========
As Sheva is making her way downstairs to unlock the door from outside she is
ambushed by a large group of majinis. Drop down and keep them off her as much
as possible so she can make her way downstairs to unlock the door. Now you can
clean the place out, but I suggest you do not use too many explosive barrels
just yet - you'll need those soon enough.
A second wave will climb over the walls and cars, but this only consists out of
5 or 6 majinis. With the place cleaned out, start exploring for items. There's
a [CRATE] in the street, a [BARREL] in the southwest corner behind the building,
and at the end of this alley another small [CRATE] can be found. Inside the
building are two more [CRATES], as well as a [BARREL] upstairs.
Head back outside and check behind the bus to find another [BARREL]. A [HAND
GRENADE] can be found near the former driver's seat. Before you head up the
eastern stairs, grab the [GREEN HERB] at the bottom. Prepare yourself for a
mini boss fight as you head upstairs, and take note of the transformer box
attached to the electricity rod near the bottom of the stairs. Next up is ..
Chainsaw Majini!
----- MINI BOSS: CHAINSAW MAJINI -----------------------------------------------
Like most mini-bosses he also has a fair amount of health, and downing him won't
go as fast as you'd like it to go. He has one main attack:
1. Chainsaw: This means instant death as it separates your head from your body.
2. Chainsaw swing: This attack will not separate your characters head from the
body but will instead put the character in an understandable Dying status.
Needless to say it's best to not get close to him, and if you do, try not to get
stuck in front of him or you'll be dead meat. He can take a lot of damage and
is backed up with a new wave of 10+ majinis. Use the explosive barrels to your
advantage and aim for his head with your rifle whenever you get the chance;
However, be extremely careful with using the rifle as it has a reload time of
nearly a second. He isn't slow and if he manages to get a hit on you or Sheva
it'll be game over, so it's better to be safe than sorry. Use grenades as well
to make things easier.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When you've downed him and the majinis, grab the [GUARD'S KEY] off him and
continue down the eastern alley to find a [BARREL] and a locked door that can
be opened with the aquired Guard's Key. Loot the treasure box for [GOLD BARS],
[RUBY (SQUARE)], [TOPAZ (PEAR)], [SAPPHIRE (SQUARE)], and an [EMERALD (PEAR)].
The demo sadly ends as you enter through the doors up ahead.
Definitely to be continued.

This section goes over the various enemies in Resident Evil 5. The threat level
is an indication of how dangerous the particular enemy is on a scale of 1-10.
If an enemy has a move that can instantly put your character into Dying status
this will pose a much bigger threat than a loss of a quarter of your health bar.
.---------------.-------.------------------------------------------------------.
|Enemy Name: |Threat:|Attacks: |
|===============|=======|======================================================|
|Majini | 2 |1. Grab: Majini can run to you and try to severely |
| | | hurt you by attempting to infect you with some sort|
| | | of a parasite. |
| | |2. Weapon swing: Majini will use a variety of weapons |
| | | to hurt you, such as axes, bottles and clubs. |
| | |3. Weapon throw: Majini can throw their weapons at you|
|---------------|-------|------------------------------------------------------|
|Flying Parasite| 2 |1. Grab: The Parasite will grab you and won't release |
| | | you unless your partner interferes the process. |
|---------------|-------|------------------------------------------------------|
|Executioner | 5 |1. Overhead swing: Commonly used, when hit this |
|[Mini-Boss] | | results in the dying status so be extremely |
| | | careful. He holds the axe behind him if he plans |
| | | on doing this. |
| | |2. Horizontal swing: He can swing the axe horizontally|
| | | giving him quite an attack range. |
| | |3. Horizontal Rage swings: When he gets low on health |
| | | he will swing the axe repeatedly. Back away if he |
| | | does this. |
| | |4. Grab-Choke: He can grab one of your characters and |
| | | choke them. Help your partner or ask for help |
| | | whenever this happens. You can also attempt to |
| | | break free, but it'll cost more time and is harder |
| | | to do. |
|---------------|-------|------------------------------------------------------|
|Chainsaw Majini| 5 |1. Chainsaw: This means instant death as it separates |
|[Mini-Boss] | | your head from your body. |
| | |2. Chainsaw swing: This attack will not separate your |
| | | characters head from the body but will instead put |
| | | the character in an understandable Dying status. |
