How to Remove Traps Guide for Resident Evil 4 Remake (Biohazard RE:4)

This page contains a guide on how to remove traps in Resident Evil 4 Remake (Biohazard RE 4). Included are type of traps, ways to remove traps and tips to avoid getting trapped.

What are the traps in the game?

Traps are dispersed throughout different areas and can be difficult to identify. When attempting to get away from enemies who are pursuing you, these traps may slow you down and put you on a bad situation.

• Bear Traps – When stepped on, this trap will hold Leon down for a short time, slowing him down. Frequently spotted covered in thick grass and hidden in the dark areas of the game.
• Tripwires – Tripwires are made of strings and explosives connected to each other. When triggered, this trap will blow up and will deal a huge amount of damage on Leon or his enemies nearby. Tripwires can also be used to your advantage, as the enemies can also trigger the bomb.

Ways to avoid getting trapped

Watch your steps and be cautious of the surroundings.

Traps are meant to be difficult to spot and catch the players off guard, giving more surprise element on the game. To lessen the risk of getting trapped, check the ground and the walls if there are traps attached to them.

Check your surroundings for signs.

The game occasionally hints at trap-filled areas by scattering  imprisoned animals or used traps throughout the area. Always keep an eye out for these kinds of cues so you can anticipate the traps and steer clear of dangerous situations.

How to Remove Traps

Using a Gun to Remove Traps

Shooting traps with one of your guns from a distance is the safest approach to deactivate them. Use your sidearm or any gun that has ammo to spare, to avoid wasting ammo on your primary gun.

Using a Knife to Remove Traps

Leon’s knife can also be used to remove traps; this method saves your precious ammo and using the knife to remove traps won’t deplete its durability. Although doing this method might be a little risky since there’s a chance that you step on the trap accidentally.

Luring your enemies into the tripwires

Tripwires can be used to your advantage since enemies can set off the bomb by stepping on the string. There may be times when you can lure your enemies into the trap and eliminate them while saving your valuable ammo.
