Vipers are back in Resident Evil 4 Remake, and this time around, they serve an additional use. Apart from using Vipers to restore your HP or selling them to the Merchant NPC for Ptas, there is a particular side quest called Viper Hunter in Resident Evil 4 Remake which tasks you to find, kill, collect, and sell Vipers to obtain Spinel. This can then be used to get special items.

However, finding these slippery, hostile reptiles in Resident Evil 4 Remake is a challenging task. So if you are in a hurry to complete the Viper Hunter side quest in the game, keep reading our guide.

Where are the Vipers in Resident Evil 4 Remake?

The primary way of finding and obtaining Vipers in Resident Evil 4 Remake is by breaking particular wooden boxes. You will find the first wooden box with a Viper on the Wooden Shelf inside the Town Hall building in the Village Square.

The second wooden box with Viper is found inside the wooden box located in the small hut you come across while heading towards the Quarry via the Church. For reference, you can use the below map screenshot:

Similarly, you will encounter several wooden boxes with Vipers inside while progressing through the game's story. However, there is a location where you can find more than four Vipers in a single area: that's the Fish Farm location.

Here is a map screenshot that shares the area where you will find a ton of Vipers:

To complete the Viper Hunter side quest in Resident Evil 4 Remake, players must kill and collect three Vipers and sell them to the Merchant NPC. Doing so will complete the quest and reward players with four Spinel. 

Moreover, players will also receive Ptas for selling those three Vipers. So, it's a win-win situation. The best part about the Viper Hunter quest is that you obtain it from the Blue Request Note near the Merchant outside the Town Hall building.

So, even if you skip the mentioned wooden boxes, you must keep progressing until you reach the Fish Farm area to collect and sell three Vipers to complete the Viper Hunter side quest.
