Resident Evil 4 Remake is packed with reasons to keep playing. Under the Extra Content menu, you’ll find new weapons, accessories and costumes. Many of the costumes and accessories are purely cosmetic — but some give Leon and Ashley invaluable bonuses that make speedruns so much easier. If you’re aiming to complete Professional Difficulty with an S+ Rank, you’ll want to unlock as much as you can before going for it — you can’t use every upgrade below, but you can use enough to give yourself a huge head start.
