Resident Evil Village: The Mercenaries Gameplay Mode Detailed in Latest Showcase

However, there are some changes in this implementation of the mode, the first of which is the addition of a shop. Players can purchase and upgrade guns with collected currency, with customization now being one of the central pillars of thought for needed progression.

Abilities are also now added, which can increase the damage outputted by handguns, increase movement speed, and increase guarding proficiency. This also adds a deeper layer of strategy for prevailing in this gameplay mode.
