“A cinematic will kick off at the start of the chapter, where players will receive a key item. Please refrain from attacking with the knife until the notification stating that you obtained that item appears at the top of the screen. After getting that key item, it will appear in the Key Items menu and the treasures of the briefcase. IF it did not appear, please reload the save data before the start of chapter 12 ”, the company commented in the announcement.

“After the update is applied, players will be able to continue the game, even with the save data where the error previously occurred,” Capcom commented.
