6. Run Or Shoot Down The Lycan - Tips

Stay a few steps away from the Lycan at all times. Being too close to it will trigger it to grab and bite down, dealing damage to Ethan
7. Return To The House - Tips
Grab Materials Lying Around
Besides the quest-required Bolt Cutters, there are also materials that you can grab from inside the house.
Check Crafting Tab To See What You Can Craft
Upon picking up a Material, you will be prompted to check your Crafting Tab for recipes and items you can create. One of the few things you can craft at this point is the First Aid Med.

Use Cabinet To Barricade The Door
Lycans will come after you during this section. Make sure to use the Cabinet next to the door to barricade it. This will prevent them to enter inside the house.
Shoot Them Through Walls, Windows
Lycans trying to get inside the house will claw their way through the windows and the wooden walls. You can shoot at them from here and defeat them without putting yourself in danger.
9. Head Inside The Houses In Village - Tips
Lycans Waiting To Ambush You
There will still be Lycans roaming around after you defeat the first three that attacks you. Enter the house they're standing on and immediately barricade the entrance.
Grab The Shotgun From The Table
The M1897 Shotgun can be found on the table inside the house. Grab it to use against the Lycans stalking you.
Lycan With Flame Arrows Will Shoot At You
Upon climbing to the top of the ladder, you will find yourself on the roof and next to a Lycan with a bow and arrow. You can choose to ignore it and just dodge the incoming arrows.
Event Will Have Ethan Swarmed
After exiting Luiza's house, you will be swarmed by Lycans and no matter how much you fight, it will end with Ethan being overwhelmed by them. This is a triggered event and will not result in a game over.
14. Enter Luiza's House - Tips
Save At The Typewriter
Another staple of the series returns! Manual save at the Typewriter to save your progress. You don't need to use an Ink Ribbon for this.
16. Locate The Key To The Truck - Tips
Truck Key Is At The Farthest Drawer
The green cupboard has a drawer at its very leftmost. You will find the Truck Key here.
500 Lei Found In Garage Cupboard
Don't miss out on the 500 Lei sitting around in the Garage cupboard as you look for the Truck's Key.

Devil's Crest In The Locked Box Outside Of Luiza's House

The Village - Details
An Isolated Settlement
The titular Village is a remote, cold-looking settlement somewhere in Eastern Europe (likely Romania). It is said to be isolated entirely from society, and gives off an altogether eerie atmosphere.
↑ The people who appear in the Village are equally unsettling - though perhaps they'll be your allies?
Villagers Hunted By Lycans
It seems that villagers here are hunted by a group of creatures called Lycans. Perhaps it will be part of your job to rescue the Village from this threat?
The Duke Is Here?
The Duke is a character in RE8 who will likely act as the main item and weapon vendor. It is said that he is from the Village, so perhaps we'll be able to find him here?
