A key component of Resident Evil 4 is its replay value, as it allows players to repeatedly to through the game in New Game+ to tackle higher difficulties and fully upgrade their weapons, and the same is true of the Resident Evil 4 remake. Just like the original, the Resident Evil 4 remake features a New Game+ option for those that manage to reach the end credits.
The Resident Evil 4 remake is a relatively short game, and so those that are nearing the end may be nervous about what carries over to New Game+. They may be wondering if they need to spend their cash or sell their treasures before the final boss, or if they need to wrap up anything else.
Here is everything that carries over in the Resident Evil 4 remake's New Game+.
Resident Evil 4 Remake New Game+: What Carries Over
When Resident Evil 4 remake players kill the final boss and start a New Game+ run, pretty much everything carries over except for key items and side quest progress. This means that Resident Evil 4 remake players get to keep all their weapons, ammo, money, upgraded weaponry, healing items, and treasures. Considering this, there is little reason to worry about losing out on anything when starting a Resident Evil 4 remake New Game+ run. The game is built for players to endlessly replay, continuously expanding and upgrading Leon's expansive arsenal.
There are some other things to keep into account when it comes to Resident Evil 4 remake's New Game+, though. Anyone wanting to get an S+ rank in the game, which is necessary to unlock all the Resident Evil 4 remake achievements/trophies, should note that doing so is not impossible on New Game+ runs. While it seems like an extremely daunting task, this means that S+ is only available to those who are able to beat the game extremely fast with none of the New Game+ benefits or upgrades.
Fans will also want to keep side quests in mind. As previously mentioned, Resident Evil 4 remake side quest progression does not carry over in New Game+ runs. Something else that makes side quests in the Resident Evil 4 remake a little tricky is the fact that players can get locked out of them by progressing too far in the game. There are side quests specific to each area of the game and players will want to be mindful of that while they're trying to complete them.
Resident Evil 4 is out now for PC, PS4, PS5, and Xbox Series X.
