Resident Evil 4 Remake Console Commands: Unlock Cheats & Items (2026)

Editor’s View:

Resident Evil 4 Remake is a masterpiece of survival horror, but playing on Professional Difficulty to unlock the “Cat Ears” (Infinite Ammo accessory) is a nightmare. The enemies are aggressive, ammo is scarce, and protecting Ashley Graham while swarmed by Ganados can make you want to break your controller. Resident Evil 4 console commands.

I wanted to skip the grind and get the Infinite Rocket Launcher immediately (which usually costs 2,000,000 Pesetas).

I looked for console commands to spawn money, but I hit a wall: Capcom’s RE Engine doesn’t have a user-accessible console.

That is why I use the XMOD Trainer, which maps these missing “console commands” to simple hotkeys, letting me get that S+ Rank without the stress.

Cheat Sheet: Common Console Commands

The Truth: Does RE4 Remake Have a Console?

Unlike games built on Bethesda’s Creation Engine (like Starfield or Fallout), Capcom’s proprietary RE Engine does not feature a developer console for players.

You cannot type codes.

There is no “tilde key (~)” menu. While some modders use tools like REFramework to inject scripts, this requires complex installation and often breaks when Capcom releases a patch or DLC (like Separate Ways). To use cheats safely and reliably, you need an external memory trainer.

The Solution: XMOD Trainer as a “Visual Console”

The XMOD Trainer is the definitive alternative. It reads the game’s memory state and injects the “commands” directly.

Why it is safer:

• No File Modification: You don’t need to replace .exe files or install risky DLLs.
• Steam/Deck Compatible: It works seamlessly with the latest Steam version and runs on Steam Deck (via Proton).
• Save Safe: It doesn’t corrupt your save data, allowing you to keep your unlocked costumes and weapons.

Strategy Guide: How to Cheat for S and Rank

Most players use cheats not to ruin the game, but to unlock the endgame rewards. Here is the smart way to use XMOD:

1. The “Professional S+” Run

To unlock the Cat Ears (which give infinite ammo legally), you must beat Professional Mode in under 5.5 hours with limited saves.

• Cheat Strategy: Toggle Freeze Mission Timer (F6). You can now explore, loot, and take your time killing bosses without the stress of the clock ticking down. You will finish with a time of 0:00:00, guaranteeing the S+ Rank.

2. The “Bodyguard” Problem

The most frustrating part of RE4 is protecting Ashley.

• Cheat Strategy: Activate Ashley God Mode (F3). Now, you can throw grenades into a crowd of enemies without worrying about accidentally killing her. She becomes immortal, removing the worst part of the escort mission.

3. The Merchant Grind

Want to fully upgrade the Red9 or Blacktail early?

• Cheat Strategy: Use Edit Spinels/Pesetas (F4). Give yourself enough Spinels to buy the “Exclusive Upgrade Ticket” from the Merchant in Chapter 2, instantly maxing out your favorite gun’s power.

Step-by-Step Guide to Installation

Download XMOD from here and save it to your PC.

 

Start Resident Evil 4 via Steam.

 

• Note: This works for both the Main Story and the “Separate Ways” DLC.

Once you are in-game (controlling Leon), open the XMOD overlay or use the Numpad/F-keys to toggle cheats.

You can adjust the “Game Speed” if you want to speed up Leon’s movement for a true speedrun experience.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

Q: Will using cheats prevent me from getting Achievements?

A: No. Using the XMOD Trainer does not disable Steam Achievements. You can unlock achievements like “Real Deadeye” or “S+ Rank Investigator” while God Mode is active.

Q: Does this work in The Mercenaries mode?

A: Yes. You can use Infinite Ammo and God Mode in The Mercenaries to easily achieve an S++ rank on all stages and unlock the RPD Costume / Handcannon.

Q: My game crashed?

A: RE Engine is sensitive. If the game updates, please restart the XMOD client to let it auto-detect the new memory addresses. Do not activate cheats during loading screens.
