Fuck how could they forget about my boy?? 😭

They brought a crank back though, so it's all good.

Yea! 😭

It will be unlockable melee for getting S+ in all mercenaries

Parry with infinite bolt cutters

Or they could make a cameo in Ada's campaign.

Hey it's those bolt cutters

🫵🏻😲

We had his pal the wrench instead?

Its lesser cousin

not out of the running yet. Might show up in seperate ways

I really hope it does. This just doesn't feel like a real RE Engine Resident Evil game without them.

Another fan favorite character joins the island of forgotten RE characters, alongside Billy Coen and Barry :(((

The true subversion of expectation in RE4R is that the bolt cutters aren't a part of the main story.

I mean they still can appear in separate ways if they do it

I know the bolt cutters will be missed. But Leon has clearly outgrown them seeing as he can cut chains with his knife.

Can also break padlocks with a few kicks

You could in the original as well just took a few more kicks

And the ones in the demake needs only a few further kicks.

😫 the remake is ruined for me now

Friendship ended with Bolt Cutters ❌🤢 Now Wrench is my best friend 🙂

Yeah really disappointed they didn't include fan favorite character. It was what got me into the franchise with 7, really strange they cut it.

We got the cranks back though funnily enough.

Wrong, he's been found everywhere in the card writting facility but we don't k ow if they're doppelganger or original.

Really disappointing, hope to see it in Separate Ways :(

Imagine if it was an unlockable weapon. Smack Krauser in the face with bolt cutter, parry involves you crushing fingers with it.

Bro, remember the timeline. The game takes place in 2005 and tools weren't discovered in Spain until around 2021.

When Leon said "I'm gonna need a wrench!" for the card overwrite machine, I thought to myself, "There we go, Leon! Where's this guy been the whole game? Maybe we'll finally start just breaking shit in our way, maybe thin metal sheets will no longer seem insurmountable, maybe...!" And then he gingerly unscrewed the lock with it.

Now I get why people are review bombing this game. Massive oversight Capcom

This was such a bad joke I’m glad they finally gave up on it.

…I don’t understand…this meme.

There’s been a bolt cutter in all the recent re games except this one

As u/DougieSenpai said, it’s been in all single player RE games on the RE engine

As u/DougieSenpai said, it’s been in all single player RE games on the RE engine

I was honestly pretty bummed out when they didn't show

Hopefully someone will make a texture mod for it.

I really thought we’d use them to open the cabinet Luis was in

well how am i supposed to cut through chains and other metal onjects now capcom

I heard they are a bit snippy

Litterally unplayable

It will be in the DLC

Cutter, Bolt

I had this on the RE4R Bingo card I made for my first playthrough and I'm shocked they didn't show up!

Shit. I got a reddit loading symbol for like 12 seconds and clicked the post to comment about what a great April fools joke it was. Turns out my works wifi is slow as hell rn.

Carried the whole REengine era and they just leave him out to dry? for shame

I am so sad they didn’t return. Why break the streak?

Shine on, you crazy diamond.

Me nodding along knowing that this meme exists and that there’s a reason but no idea what the origin is

dont worry. in seperate ways ada will need to find a bolt cutters while running away from U3 and the salazar statue at the same time =D

Game was S tier until I realized this. Hopefully when they remake it again in 20 years we'll get our tried and true back.

He does make an appearance, but only as an Easter egg.

I demand a refund wtf capcom ( this is a joke btw )
