Welcome to Mojo Plays, and today we're taking a look at the 10 hardest items you will ever
00:13
have to unlock across the Resident Evil series.
00:18
Before we begin, we publish new videos all week long, so be sure to subscribe to Mojo

00:34
Cat Ears, Resident Evil 4 Who wouldn't want to see Leon sport a pair
00:47
of cat ears like a typical e-girl?
00:50
It just adds more comedy to an already absurd campaign.
00:54
But if you really want to experience this for yourself, you will need to beat the main
00:57
campaign on Professional Difficulty and earn an S-Plus rank.
01:02
How does one achieve an S-Plus rank?
01:04
Well, you'll have to beat the game in under 4 hours.
01:13
Honestly, the best way to go about doing this is to nail as many level skips as you can
01:19
and ignore any unnecessary combat encounters as possible.
01:24
Basically, employ your best speedrunning tactics.
01:28
And again, make sure you do this under New Game, not New Game Plus.
01:32
You can't get S-Plus rank on New Game Plus.
01:46
Infinite Ammo, Resident Evil 7 Biohazard
01:57
Infinite ammo is always nice to have when you're just trying to blast through a game
02:00
with reckless abandon.
02:02
Those who really want this little cheat for RE7 will have to endure the game under the
02:06
hardest difficulty, Madhouse.
02:09
This setting doesn't just buff enemies and strengthen health, either.
02:13
Though, Madhouse also features a complete rearrangement of where items are located
02:19
and which enemies spawn in certain areas.
02:27
On top of that, you will need to locate cassette tapes if you wish to save your game, just
02:32
as the original Resident Evil games required you to use ink ribbons back then.
02:43
Infinite Rocket Launcher, Resident Evil 3
02:55
A lot of the time, the hardest and or most expensive rewards to unlock in the Resident
02:59
Evil games is an infinite rocket launcher.
03:02
The thing about the launcher featured in RE3's remake is that it is probably the most expensive
03:08
unlockable in the entire franchise.
03:19
Better save up the currency you get from completing challenges, because you will need to save
03:23
up 624,000 points.
03:28
Even if you try to blast through the challenges and do several playthroughs, this might wind
03:32
up being the last thing you unlock in the entire game.
03:36
That is, if you don't pony up real money to Capcom, just so you can have instant access
03:41
to it.
03:49
The Infinite Rocket Launcher, Resident Evil 2
04:02
With its tank controls and limited number of ink ribbons to let you save, modern players
04:07
may find RE2 to be more difficult than its 2019 remake.
04:11
The one weapon that breaks the original RE2 is this, the Infinite Rocket Launcher.
04:17
Blow any enemy back to hell with as many rockets as you can fire.
04:29
To obtain this, you're going to have to employ some speedrunning tactics and try to
04:33
beat Leon A or Leon B scenarios in under two and a half hours, and achieve an A rank at
04:40
minimum.
04:42
Hope you're used to PS1 controls.
04:50
Cat Ears, Resident Evil 2
04:53
That's right, the rocket launcher isn't the only common unlockable in Resident Evil.
04:57
A handful of the games also feature wearable cat ears for its respective protagonists.
05:03
But obtaining a pair for Claire and Leon might be a test of endurance and calculation.
05:08
See, you'll have to commit quite a bit of practice time to the No Way Out mode, the
05:13
mode that was added as part of the Ghost Survivors DLC, where you play as the Sheriff from the
05:18
prologue and go against hordes of zombies.
05:20
To unlock the cat ears, you're going to have to beat this mode firing off no more
05:25
than 60 handgun bullets.
05:28
Trust us, this is way easier said than done.
05:31
The Assault Rifle, Resident Evil 3 Nemesis
05:34
A unique aspect of Nemesis in RE3 is that it is possible to defeat him in some of your
05:47
encounters.
05:48
If you manage to do so, you will be rewarded with pretty powerful items.
05:52
However, you can only defeat him in 7 separate encounters within a single playthrough.
05:58
If you're gunning to unlock the Assault Rifle, you'll have to find a way to defeat
06:01
him all 7 times within a single playthrough.
06:12
Not only that, it has to be done on your first playthrough.
06:17
No new game pluses, no bonus weapons to help you out, all under a fresh save.
06:32
Unlockable Costumes, Resident Evil 5
06:43
RE5 features a decent handful of costumes for Chris and Sheva to unlock.
06:48
Unfortunately, getting even one or two of these requires a little bit of collectible
06:53
hunting, those collectibles being the BSAA Emblems.
07:04
These are scattered across every single mission in the game in areas that can sometimes cause
07:09
you to stray fairly far from the main path.
07:12
Others will just be found in annoying corners or distant spots.
07:16
Of course, you can always just pull up a guide and find all the emblems that way, but if
07:20
you want to challenge yourself, be prepared for a handful of playthroughs.
07:31
The LZ Answerer, Resident Evil Village
07:43
So here's the thing about the LZ Answerer.
07:46
This was initially a really tough unlockable to get because you have to learn at least
07:50
an SS rank on all 8 stages included in Mercenaries mode.
07:56
Doing this with Ethan required very specific pathing, and maintaining a perfect combo from
08:02
start to finish.
08:07
However, this was made easier once Capcom added Lady Dimitrescu, Heisenberg, and Chris
08:16
in a post-launch update.
08:18
Even with these new, somewhat overpowered characters, the LZ Answerer is still the hardest
08:23
item to unlock in Resident Evil Village.
08:33
The Katana, Resident Evil Revelations 2
08:44
Revelations 2 is packed to the brim with all kinds of unlockables.
08:48
It kind of gives the game a decent amount of replay value.
08:51
Sadly, the hardest unlockable you'll have to go for is the Katana, which requires you
08:57
to beat every single episode under Invisible mode.
09:01
What is Invisible mode?
09:02
Well, it's where every enemy in the game becomes totally invisible.
09:17
You can reveal them briefly if you manage to hit them with Moira's flashlight, a smoke
09:21
grenade, or Natalia's pointing skill, but obviously, you can't rely on those under
09:27
most situations.
09:29
So better identify those moments when you can avoid combat, and just book it for the
09:33
next area.
09:39
And lastly, the Hand Cannon, Resident Evil 4
09:53
The original Resident Evil 4 already has some crazy powerful, crazy broken weapons that
09:59
you can unlock.
10:00
Of them all, if you truly want to feel ultimate power in your hand, the Hand Cannon is what
10:05
you seek.
10:06
Should you try to unlock this one, be prepared for the most grueling challenge in Resident
10:11
Evil history, not counting playing Umbrella Corps, we don't talk about that though.
10:16
You will have to achieve an S rank on every single stage in Mercenaries mode, as every
10:21
single character.
10:23
Good luck!
10:26
And if you thought RE4's remake might have made things easier, well, that depends on
10:36
who you ask.
10:37
Getting the Hand Cannon will require you to beat RE4 Remake on the highest difficulty
10:41
without any bonus weapons, or just get S rank on Castle, Village, and Island in Mercenaries
10:47
mode.
10:48
Take your pick.
10:55
Did you manage to unlock any of these for yourself?
