A fan favorite, the Mercenaries mode in the Resident Evil series, was initially missing upon the release of the Resident Evil 4 Remake in 2023. But don't worry, Capcom has now added this mode. With the remake of Resident Evil 4, we can relive one of the best PC games all over again. And now, our survival horror experience is even better with the Mercenaries mode!
Release Date and Trailer
The Mercenaries mode was released on April 7th. That means you can play it now! To coincide with the release, Capcom has also released a trailer that gives us a brief glimpse into this action-packed survival mode. The content is free for all owners of the base game, as Edvin Edso, Promotion Producer of Resident Evil 4 Remake, announced in a PlayStation blog.
Playgrounds and playable characters
So far, we have only officially seen the title of the latest Mercenaries DLC set against the backdrop of the Spanish village of "Pueblo," where players will encounter the dangerous Ganados for the first time. As in the original Resident Evil 4 Mercenaries mode, there will likely be several maps to choose from, including the village itself.
There are also rumors about possible playable characters in the upcoming Mercenaries mode for the Resident Evil 4 Remake. According to this information, the following characters could be playable: Leon S. Kennedy, Ada Wong, Jack Krauser, Albert Wesker, Luis Serra, and HUNK. This would give the mode two new characters compared to the original Resident Evil 4 Mercenaries mode: Luis and HUNK.
Of course, we should take such information with caution until it is officially confirmed by Capcom. Nevertheless, it increases the anticipation for the mode and the action-packed gameplay!
