Take your first steps into the creepy, undead-infested Police Station in our first walkthrough (of four) showing you how to complete Resident Evil 2 Remake in the quickest way possible. Below, we’re breaking down the objectives and steps you need to take to conquer the game, listing each step in bullet points to make your journey easier. You’ll find key item locations and puzzle solutions — we won’t discuss healing items or ammo, but we will explain where to get items you absolutely need. Like new guns.
The start of our walkthrough covers the entire Police Station section leading up to the very first boss battle. This is all about finding three hidden medallions — the medallions are located inside statues. Input the correct code, and you’ll get the medallion. Finding (and reaching) all three medallions isn’t as easy as it sounds. The Police Station is a labyrinth of locked doors. If you’re lost or need a little help, scan through the guide below. This is a low-spoilers guide, so it just contains the essential steps you need to solve each area.
