Leon S. Kennedy’s Spanish adventure to save the president’s daughter can be cut off short much earlier than intended, but Capcom is already working on a fix.
Resident Evil 4 is unequivocally an early Game of the Year contender. In our review, we called it “the gold standard” for what we should expect from video game remakes, but it seems that might not be the case for some players who run into a game-breaking bug during Chapter 12. Fortunately, that’s far enough into the game that it won’t drastically ruin the experience, but Capcom is still already hard at work trying to solve the issue.
While formally announcing its recognition of the bug on Twitter, Capcom also confirmed that it is “working on a fix”. It also said that the fix will allow any affected players to keep their progress, continuing the save without the need to restart once the fix has been implemented. Until that time comes, a way to avoid the game-halting technical issue has been provided by Capcom itself.
