Resident Evil 4 - Unlockable Costumes And Bonus Weapons Guide

Resident Evil 4 Remake has numerous goodies that you can unlock. However, several will require multiple completions, as well as a bit of know-how for more efficient clears. Here's our Resident Evil 4 unlockables guide to help you with all the weapons and costumes that you can obtain in the game.

Resident Evil 4 unlockables guide - Weapons, costumes, and accessories

Our Resident Evil 4 unlockables guide takes a look at the different items that can be yours once you finish the game. All of these can be acquired via the main menu -> Bonus Content -> Extra Content Shop, where each selection costs Completion Points (i.e., what you earn when you complete challenges/achievements in the campaign). You may then equip these by clicking Main Story -> Extras.

Ranks - Campaign completion scoring system

Additionally, some rewards are further subdivided based on game modes and clear rankings (usually dependent on completion time). As such, you can't get everything in one go. Here's the gist:

Rank/Score	Assisted Difficulty	Standard Difficulty	Hardcore Difficulty	Professional Difficulty - Unlocked after beating the game once on any of the default difficulty modes
S+ - New Game+ not allowed	Four hours	Five hours	Five and a half hours	Five and a half hours 15 saves or fewer
S	Four hours	Five hours	Five and a half hours	Five and a half hours
A	15 hours	12 hours	10 hours	7 hours

For instance, if you're attempting an S+ rank run, then you'll need to be very familiar with the game already. Knowing when to avoid enemies, and being able to clear the campaign as fast as possible would be the end goal. Here are some other related tidbits when it comes to S+ rank:

• New Game+ isn't allowed, so you have to start from scratch and upgrade weapons as you progress.
• Bonus weapons are allowed (if you've already unlocked them). You'll find them in the storage when you interact with a typewriter.
• The only exception is the Infinite Rocket Launcher, as this can only be purchased during a New Game+ run.

Resident Evil 4 Remake unlockable weapons

These are the Resident Evil 4 Remake unlockable bonus weapons. Each one has a unique perk that can be obtained by buying all other upgrades first, or using the Exclusive Upgrade Ticket from the Merchant (costs 30/40 Spinels).

• Primal Knife
  • Unlock requirement - Can be unlocked after destroying all 16 Clockwork Castellans (any difficulty mode). You can learn more in our Clockwork Castellans guide.
  • Unique perk - Indestructible; will never lose durability.
• Chicago Sweeper - Also known as the Tommy Gun or the Chicago Typewriter in the original game.
  • Unlock requirement - A-rank; Professional difficulty.
  • Unique perk - Infinite ammo.
• Handcannon
  • Unlock requirement - Professional difficulty (no rank requirement); New Game only; no bonus weapons allowed (i.e., Primal Knife and Chicago Sweeper).
  • Unique perk - Infinite ammo.

Lastly, there's one more weapon that's only available during a New Game+ run. It has no upgrades (it won't need any, that's for sure):

• Infinite Rocket Launcher - Start a New Game+ run (any difficulty). The Merchant will sell this for two million pesetas, so make sure you've saved up a bit and can sell a lot of treasures/upgraded weapons.

Note that these weapons are earned through achieving certain in-game milestones. For the complete list of weapons you can purchase or otherwise find in Resident Evil 4 Remake, check out our guide to all Resident Evil 4 weapons.
