Your guide to the treacherous Container Area in Resident Evil 5. Learn how to deal with explosive traps, mutated dogs, and tough Majini to find valuable loot and progress.

Alright, we're getting close to the docks now, but first we've got to get through this container area. It's a bit of a maze, and there are some nasty surprises waiting, so stick close and we'll get through it.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    You'll start off in the container area. Keep an eye out for a tripwire with explosives attached to it. You can shoot the explosives from a distance to clear the path.
  2. 2
    After that, you'll need to deal with a few Majini. They're standard fodder at this point, so take them down quickly.
  3. 3
    Now, pay attention to the containers. The SE container has a [WOODEN BARREL] inside. The NW region has a [WOODEN CRATE] and two more [WOODEN BARRELS]. However, there's an explosive trap blocking direct access.
  4. 4
    To get past the trap, you have a couple of options. You can try shooting the wire from a distance, but it's tricky. A better way is to climb the ladder on the side of a container (it's on the far side, so you'll need to go around) and drop down.
  5. 5
    Once you're past the trap, you can disarm it by shooting the explosives. It's much easier to hit them this way. If you climbed the containers, look at the end of the other container for [HANDGUN BULLETS x10].
  6. 6
    Don't forget to check the container to the east of the ladder; there's a [GREEN HERB] inside.
  7. 7
    Moving northeast, you're going to run into some Adjule, which are basically mutated dogs. These guys are fast, so stick together and use your shotgun if you have it. The Majini here are no big deal.
  8. 8
    Keep an eye out to the north for another [WOODEN BARREL] that's a bit hidden.
  9. 9
    Shoot the next explosive trap you see and head southeast. Another Majini will pop up, so take him out.
  10. 10
    You'll need to climb and move over some containers up ahead. Drop down on the other side, and you'll find yourself facing a group of Majini, including a tougher Big man Majini. His punches are pretty telegraphed, so you can dodge them easily. He'll drop a Jewel Bangle for you.
  11. 11
    This area also has two more [WOODEN BARRELS].
  12. 12
    Once all the enemies are cleared out, head over to the slidable gate on the east side. You'll need to combine powers with your partner to open it.
  13. 13
    Before you hop over the gap at the bridge, grab the two [WOODEN CRATES] nearby.
Tips
  • The Adjule (mutated dogs) are fast and can be a real pain if they swarm you. Stick close and use a shotgun or other powerful weapon to thin them out quickly.
  • Don't rush past the containers without checking them. There's a good amount of ammo and herbs scattered around if you take the time to look.
  • The Big man Majini looks tough, but his attacks are slow and predictable. Focus on dodging and you'll take him down without much trouble.
