Are the Survival Pack: Recovery Items reusable on a different playthrough

resident-evil-7

Is the pre-order Survival Pack a one-time use no matter the playthrough (like in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided), a one-time use per playthrough, or something different?

Best Answer

You get your survival packs, as well as any other bonuses (preorder bonuses, unlocked items, coin from demo etc), on beginning of each playthrough.

Beginning Hour: What are the minimum requirements to get the true ending

So after a fair bit of searching I have found this guide. The guide is actually for obtaining the 'dirty coin' but it also happens to result in the 'true ending'. Using this guide I have managed to work out the minimum steps in takes to get the true ending:

Pull the hidden level in the fireplace to open the secret door
Enter the secret door and grab the fuse on the stool
Put the fuse in the fusebox (in the room where you start)
Go upstairs, activate the attic stairs, go up to the main room in he attic and grab the basement key next to the bed
Go to the basement to get the attic window key, at this point a Molded will spawn and you MUST get out of the basement without taking any damage
Return to the attic and escape out of the window (up the ladders) using the key

Essentially, you just need to escape without taking any damage and you will get the true ending.

TIP for step 5:

Grab the key then immediately run past the Molded (sometimes it will hit you, sometimes it will miss)
Immediately try to open the door to get the animation started
Turn around and get into a position where the hanging body bag is between you and the Molded. Kick it into the Molded so it gets knocked to the floor
Run to the door and keep trying it until you get through - you should get enough time before the Molded gets back up and attacks you.

It may take a few attempts to pull this off, but it is very doable once you get the hang of it.

The repair kits in Madhouse difficulty

When you leave the main house, go down the steps and turn hard right and behind the bushes, opposite the side with the tearaway chunk of wall, the repair kit is on the ground, next to some solid fuel.
