Resident Evil 4 Remake – All Mercenaries Characters & Their Abilities:
Here are all the details you need to know about all the characters that can be unlocked in the Mercenary mode in RE4 Remake:
- Leon Kennedy
Leon Kennedy is available by default in Resident Evil 4 Remake’s Mercenaries Mode. He has an all-around playstyle and uses an SG-09R with Laser Sight, Riot Gun, and Stingray with High-power Scope, a Combat Knife, and a First-Aid Spray.
Mayhem Mode Ability: Bullet Rush, which increases Leon’s damage and speed while active.
- Luis Sera
Luis Sera is unlocked by using Leon and beating any stage with an A-rank (i.e., at least 100,000 points). He has a unique playstyle and uses a Red9, SR-M1903 with Biosensor Scope, Boot Knife, Flash Grenade, and 2x First-Aid Sprays.
Mayhem Mode Ability: Dynamite, which plants a stick of dynamite on the ground. It explodes after a few seconds or once shot. Additional dynamite sticks can be dropped after the previous one has exploded. Luis is also immune to explosive damage.
- Jack Krauser
Jack Krauser is unlocked by using Luis and beating any stage with an A-rank. He uses a TMP, EJF-388 Compound Bow with Explosive Arrows, Fighting Knife, 3x Flash Grenades, and a First-Aid Spray.
Mayhem Mode Ability: Mutation, which temporarily causes Krauser’s arm to mutate, granting you devastating melee attacks. The normal attack (i.e., left mouse button) is a regular swing, whereas the special attack (i.e., left and right mouse buttons) leads to a thrusting attack.
- Hunk
Hunk is unlocked by using Krauser and beating any stage with an A-rank. He uses an LE5, a Boot Knife, 3x Hand Grenades, and a First-Aid Spray.
Mayhem Mode Ability: Infinite Ammo, which allows Hunk to continuously fire his weapon without using ammo.
Special Ability: Neck Snap – Hunk’s melee attacks on stunned enemies (i.e., not the normal knife slash) is an instant-kill neck snap.
Tips and Tricks:
- Use Leon for a well-rounded playstyle that can adapt to any situation. His Bullet Rush Mayhem Mode is useful when facing hordes of enemies.
- Luis has a weaker weapon loadout but is still a viable option due to his dynamite Mayhem Mode. He can clear out large groups of enemies with a single explosion.
- Krauser is a powerhouse that can shred through enemies with his Compound Bow and Mutation Mayhem Mode. Be careful when using the Mutation ability, as it slows him down.
- Hunk is a specialist in taking down single targets with his LE5 and Neck Snap special ability. He also has infinite ammo, making him an excellent option for extended fights.
