The time has finally come for the highly anticipated Resident Evil 4 remakeA project that re-proposes the first major object of the Resident Evil controversy on the market, the one that for the first time had innovated the brand towards the direction of action, partially abandoning what was its initial soul. And this time Capcomwho has now restored the luster of horror par excellence, doesn’t want to make a mistake.
In addition to the many weapons present (for which we refer you to our dedicated guide), this new guise of the original 2005 title also presents unpublished collectibles (ie the Castellani, where you can find their locations here).
However, veterans of the title will remember the famous blue medallions without too much difficulty, those particular objects to be destroyed in order to receive a prize from the mysterious merchant. Well, know that in the remake Capcom has expanded their presence, scattering them in various areas of the game.
Here’s where to find them all:
- 5 Medallions
- Reward: 3 joints
1 – The first medallion will be found outside the house in which the typewriter is present to save the game.
2 – The second medallion will be found on the ceiling of the barn located in the western part of the Farm, it will also be clearly visible from the outside.
3 – The third medallion is behind a wooden beam inside the largest barn. You can easily destroy it from the outside by shooting from the window.
4 – Still in the largest barn, you can see the fourth medallion in the upper floor, hanging from the ceiling. Shoot them from outside the building to speed things up.
5 – The last area medallion is slightly more hidden. Continuing in the area, you will find yourself climbing some stairs at the top of which there is a machine that will need a gear to open the grate that blocks the path. On the opposite side of the room, beyond the millstone, you’ll notice a door that leads to a small path. Make Leon jump down and, as soon as he hits the ground, rotate 180 degrees. The medallion will be behind you. Otherwise, you can also see it from the top floor of the barn.
