Look at you, building things. In Resident Evil Village, you’re trying to take down a family of immortal enemies. To achieve that you’ll need to have a steady aim and a craftsman's spirit. Resident Evil Village is significantly easier if you’re aided by crafted items. If you can procure the recipes and materials, you can build essentials like ammunition on the fly.
Here’s how you can find all 11 crafting recipes in Resident Evil Village and what you need to make them.
How to craft in Resident Evil Village and get new recipes
There are 11 official recipes in Resident Evil Village.
Almost every crafting recipe is purchased via Duke’s Emporium for a small sum of money. For the Duke to begin selling each recipe, you’ll need to meet specific requirements. Transforming into a craftsman is essential if you’re trying to be the most effective that you can be at Resident Evil Village.
It’s worth noting that there are craftable items that you can find throughout the game. These don’t have clear-cut recipes that you can purchase and are usually one-time deals. For example, this includes crafting Lady Dimitrescu’s necklace, which can be sold for a pretty penny.
