The Resident Evil 4 remake will add The Mercenaries mode as free DLC in April
Capcom has confirmed that The Mercenaries mode will be released for the Resident Evil 4 remake next month.
The Mercenaries, which challenges players to kill as many enemies as possible within a time limit, will launch on April 7 as free DLC.
Capcom revealed the DLC’s release date at the end of the Resident Evil 4 launch trailer, which is viewable below.
Capcom is also planning to release a Resident Evil 4 remake VR mode as free DLC for PS5 and PS VR2.
The company confirmed last month that it had started development of the VR mode, but it didn’t announce a launch window.
Resident Evil 4 was released today for PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC via Steam.
