- ✓ Kill at least 3 other Residents before escaping.
Not required
- ✓ No specific weapon
- ✓ No named environment execution
Why Didn't Challenge 3 Count?
1. Did you complete the named action?
No: this Challenge only registers when the official wording is met.
Yes: continue.
2. Did you meet every named condition?
Check the numbered Challenge, the named target, place, weapon, execution or state. A weapon cinematic is not an environment execution.
3. Did you start from a clean chapter attempt?
If you resumed from a checkpoint or partial run, use a fresh Into the Shadows attempt as a controlled retry.
4. Everything looked clean but still no credit?
Then a tracking problem remains possible — after the requirement and a clean retry, not before.
