Unleash Your Inner Beast: A Guide to Unlocking the Bear Hat in RE4 Remake for Ultimate Knife Damage
Enhance Ada's lethal prowess in RE4: Separate Ways DLC with the charmingly deadly Bear Hat Discover how to unlock, equip, and maximize the power of this booster item for faster progression and achievements
The Bear Hat is a special piece of clothing in the Separate Ways DLC that enhances knife damage. Equipping it allows Ada to take down enemies with fewer stabs, minimizing the need for ammunition. However, it's important to note that the hat doesn't have any impact on the durability of the knife, meaning players will still have to repair their blades unless they have an unlimited one.
To acquire the Bear Hat, players must complete RE4: Separate Ways with certain requirements. This guide will offer a speedy and effective walkthrough to assist in unlocking it.
How to Unlock the Bear Hat
To obtain the Bear Hat, players must successfully complete the Separate Ways DLC on Standard Mode with an S+ Rank. To accomplish this, players should progress through the game and reach the final cutscene within a time frame of less than two hours. It is important to note that this must be achieved on a fresh save file, without utilizing the New Game Plus feature.
Item | How to Get | Effect |
|---|---|---|
Bear Hat | Get S+ Rank (Standard Mode) | Boosts Knife DMG |
In the Resident Evil 4 remake, wearing the Deer Antlers grants Leon the same buff. However, in the DLC, Ada replaces the antlers with a seemingly harmless hat, while the effect remains unchanged.
Although players can match the Bear Hat with the Cute Bear Earing, this combination does not provide any extra benefits. The earrings are purely cosmetic and hold no unique abilities.
How to Equip the Bear Hat
How the Bear Hat Affects Achievements
After being obtained, the Bear Hat can be accessed through the Extras menu. To equip it, players need to navigate to the “Ada’s Accessories” section and toggle on the hat. It is worth mentioning that players can only wear one hat at a time, meaning they are unable to combine the effects of the Bear Hat with those of the Chicken Hat or the Cat Set.
Wearing booster apparel in the Separate Ways DLC does not have a direct impact on achievements. However, players can still attain an S+ rank by utilizing the extra buff when starting a new game instead of NG+.
Tips for Getting the Bear Hat Faster
To achieve an S+ rank in Standard Mode, the most effective approach is to bypass unnecessary portions. Ada can effortlessly outrun the majority of enemies, especially those found in the Village Square, saving time by avoiding combat. Additionally, utilizing Flash Grenades or explosives strategically can stun formidable foes, allowing for a speedy escape.
The Separate Ways DLC for Resident Evil 4 Remake is now accessible on PS4, PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S.
