Much akin to Resident Evil 7 and Resident Evil: Village, Capcom’s Resident Evil 4 Remake features its very own crafting system. Fortunately, to craft in-game, all you need to do is press the Triangle/ B button or the Touchpad/ Menu button and then toggle over to the Crafting menu, which is symbolised by two cogs and three bullets, by using the R2/ RT button.
