Resource Management Mastery — Resident Evil 7: Biohazard Guide

Master resource management in Resident Evil 7: Biohazard. Learn tips for item usage, inventory, and survival to overcome the Baker family and escape the plantation.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Step 1: Easy Difficulty Playthrough + Collectibles + Ending 2
    Play on Easy or Normal difficulty to unlock Madhouse. Focus on collecting all 20 Mr. Everywhere Statues, 18 Antique Coins, 32 Files, and 4 Videotapes. Ensure you give Zoe the cure after defeating mutant Jack Baker to achieve Ending 2. This step helps familiarize you with the map and collectibles, making subsequent playthroughs easier.
  2. 2
    Step 2: Easy Difficulty Speedrun + No Item Box Uses + No Medkits + Ending 1
    Aim to beat the game in under 4 hours for the "Just Get Me Outta Here" trophy. Combine this with "Resource Manager" (no item box uses) and "Walk it Off" (no medkit uses, though up to 3 are allowed). Steroids do not count as medkits. Beating the game quickly unlocks the powerful Circular Saw, which significantly eases the Madhouse difficulty playthrough.
Tips
  • The Circular Saw, unlocked by beating the game in under 4 hours, is an extremely powerful melee weapon with infinite ammo, making Madhouse difficulty much more manageable.
  • While most trophies are technically missable, many will unlock naturally. Pay close attention to missable trophies like "Can’t Catch Me," "Duck if You Love Life," and "Things Got Personal."
  • Antique Coins are in different locations on Madhouse difficulty, requiring a separate collectible playthrough for that difficulty.
  • Cheat codes, unlocked by meeting specific in-game conditions (like beating Madhouse), do not disable trophies and can be used for trophy hunting.

Achieving efficient resource management leads to easier trophy acquisition, including the Platinum trophy, and a more streamlined experience across multiple playthroughs, especially on Madhouse difficulty.
