Like everything resident Evil games, the Resident Evil 4 The remake will allow players to create herbal combinations to heal their wounds. There have been a few tweaks to this system, however, which might surprise some series veterans. While first aid sprays will still heal your health bar to 100%, the standard mix of green and red herbs will no longer fully recharge you. There are also a total of three different types of herbs that you can obtain in the game. These are the green, red, and yellow types.
Green and red can be combined to heal you with varying effectiveness. While combining a yellow herb will increase Leon’s total health pool. This will be key in making some combat encounters more manageable. It’s not necessary, and you can absolutely play without improving your health at all. Fortunately, in the new version, you can combine a red and a yellow without needing a green to use the mixture. This will improve Leon’s health, but will not cure him. It is therefore preferable to reserve the use of yellow herbs when you can combine them with one green and one red or with two green ones.
