The Resident Evil series has always been more than just taking down monsters and getting scared, and Resident Evil Village is no different. As you explore the village and its surrounding areas, you’ll be able to find and hunt down various animals, including fish, chickens, pigs, and more. With their meat, you can craft some major and permanent upgrades at Duke’s Kitchen, located at the same cart that Duke is at in any given area.

Finding the animals is easy enough, but figuring out which upgrade you want to go for might be tougher. If you’re looking at what exactly you’ll need for them, then look no further. Here is everything you can make in Duke’s Kitchen in Resident Evil Village.

Reward: Health slightly increased permanently

Requirements:

  • Fish (3)
  • Poultry (2)

Finding fish and chicken is easy enough in Resident Evil Village, as the map points out where they can be found. Checking your in-game map, you’ll notice various pictures of chickens or fish located at certain areas.

Exploring those areas will often result in you finding some animals to hunt down. It’s currently unknown if there is a finite amount of animals in the game, though, so make sure that as you collect them, you aren’t accidentally selling them to Duke.

Reward: Damage taken when guarding decreases permanently

Requirements:

  • Poultry (4)
  • Meat (1)

Much like poultry and fish, meat is pretty easy to find in Resident Evil Village. It won’t pop up on the map, but you can find a couple of small, black pigs roaming about the “West Old Town” area of the map. There are also bigger pigs and goats roaming around certain sections of the map, so make sure to keep an eye out while you’re exploring. Finally, if you go to the section of the map titled “Otto’s Mill,” you’ll encounter a mini boss fight and be able to steal his huge collection of meat.

Requirements:

  • Poultry (4)

  • Juicy Game (1)

As you get deeper into the Duke’s Kitchen upgrades, you’ll eventually need more exotic animals and meat to trade in. The first is termed “Juicy Game,” and can be found from a special blue bird that’s found perched on a tree in the Graveyard section of the village.

Requirements:

  • Fish (1)
  • Meat (5)
  • Quality Meat (1)

Much like Juicy Game, Quality Meat can be found in the village. Head to Luiza’s House and hop out of the back window where you initially meet her and her father. You’ll spot a well, and a white pig that you can take down for its prize.

Reward: Health slightly increased permanently

Requirements:

  • Fish (6)
  • Finest Fish (1)

The Finest Fish is a special golden fish that can be found right after defeating Moreau, one of the four mini-bosses in the game. Use the crank to lower the bridge near the Altar and take the boat heading South.

You’ll eventually get to a small pond that has a handful of fish in it, as well as one particular golden fish. Killing the fish is as simple as shooting it with a pistol or striking it a couple of times with a knife.
