Resident Evil 4 Remake has recently been updated. The new version has updated many things, and the guide on how to use the knife action in "Resident Evil 4 Remake" is one of them. Below, the editor will take you through a guide on how to use the knife action in "Resident Evil 4 Remake".
melee attack
knife strike
Buttons: R2, RT
Press the [R2 key] alone to use the knife attack, swing the knife horizontally, the attack range is relatively wide, and it is a basic attack that is easy to hit.
Thrust
Buttons: L1+R2, LB+RT
Press the [R2 key] while holding down the [L1 key] to use the knife to stab. The thrust can accurately attack the target position, and can make the enemy go straight by thrusting the head, and then attack at a close distance (taijutsu action).
Parry (Rebound)
Buttons: Press L1/LB when the enemy attacks
Parry is a new action in the remake. You can use a knife to parry enemy attacks. Since there are no defensive actions, parrying to defend against enemy attacks is the most basic defensive method in this game. If you parry at the perfect time, you can trigger a rebound (a parry-linked physical action), which is a very important action when fighting with a knife.
emergency break away
Buttons: Press R2/RT when being grabbed by the enemy from the front
When being grabbed by an enemy from the front (front), press the [R2 key] to use a knife to escape in an emergency. Although the durability of the knife will be consumed, you can break away faster than pressing the [× key] repeatedly.
Stealth attack (backstab)
Buttons: Press R2/RT when approaching the enemy without being discovered by the enemy.
When not discovered by the enemy, quietly approach the enemy from behind and press the [R2 key] to use backstab. A very practical stealth play that can stably and effectively reduce the number of enemies.
execution
Buttons: Press R2/RT on the fallen enemy
Use the knife to deliver a critical blow to a downed enemy, but not all enemies can be used.
