I’ve been obsessed with Resident Evil 8 and played it non-stop during my last deployment. It’s my all-time favorite game, and I’ve unlocked pretty much every achievement—except one! I’m really struggling to get the S rank in the factory level. I’ve watched tons of tips and walkthroughs, but I still find myself stuck. I’d love to hear any advice or strategies that could help me finally conquer this level on my PS5!

I can totally relate to your struggle! The factory level is a tough nut to crack. One thing you might consider is upgrading to the Gold Edition. It lets you use different characters, which can make things easier. That’s what I heard at least—I’m playing on Steam and I’m not about to buy it again on PS! And don’t be too hard on yourself; sometimes just stepping away for a bit clears your mind and may help you come back stronger.
One effective way to tackle the factory is using Ethan with specific abilities. The knife paired with the Masamune ability can make a huge difference—as it boosts your damage and speed significantly. I also spent my cash on flash grenade rounds to take out birds or explosive rounds for tougher archers. Give it a shot and see if that helps you achieve that S rank!
Getting that S rank really comes down to knowing the enemy spawn points inside and out. It’s frustrating, but each enemy has a fixed location. Remembering where they appear can dramatically boost your combo count. Just make sure to plan your moves—reload only when you need to and think ahead about how to use your items effectively. It’ll take practice, but it might just be the key you need!
Yeah, I tried memorizing too, but man, if I miss just one shot, it feels like everything goes downhill from there. I’ve got to improve my aim on console, but it’s frustrating when you see others completing it while you’re stuck! I must be missing a crucial strategy.
Can the knife take down bigger foes like the sisters, though? I feel like I’d still need some heavy firepower for them!
