*NEW* Fastest way to get Handcannon in Resident Evil 4 Remake!

[@DarthDragon007]

Yea, getting the Handcannon in classic RE4 was much harder. Needed 5 Stars on all 4 Maps with every single character in order to unlock it.

[@Funktastic_Ed]

The origibal Handcannon was way better, this one is uuterly innacurate, and deals only 36dmg the only good aspect is its special upgrade wich make it infinite, the Broken Butterfly once upgraded to special deal 40 and have a better accuracy and rate of fire. Broken Butterfly + Cat's ears is way better.

[@christian1neza1656]

Agree. Not to mention in the OG, there are more stages to be clear and ALL ur characters must clear it. Downside of this hand Cannon is it's at least 3 times WEAKER than it's predecessor (HC in the original has almost 100 atk power while this one has only nearly 40)

I'm glad for those who can get it this way, I did pro to get mine but for those who don't want to speed run or do another 15 or so hour playthrough for the HC this is amazing news. Part of me wishes that mercenaries just gave us the PLR back but separate ways is still coming so I'll hold out hope for that. (cries)

That's me, I probably wouldn't have gotten it the other way. I'm in NG+ hardcore and just got it through mercenaries. I also had a ticket saved up for the exclusive and it's maxed out. I'm going to have a blast finishing this run and it actually motivated me to do another playthrough after this one simply to headshot enemies with the hand canon.

[@jlogan2228]

Also, if you are trying to unlock the typewriter or hand cannon by doing a pro run, HIGHLY recommend using the chapter and section skip tricks. The only real downside is that you won't have quite as much money but honestly if you've already played the game a couple times you should know what you need to invest in by now and how to farm extra cash and which sections that are just ammo burners can be skipped I'm hoping they won't be patched bc that's part of the fun of the game. You can choose to play it straight or use the exploits.

considering the fact that the hand cannon is so incredibly hard to unlock in the main game compared to the pretty much free give-away in mercenaries, makes me think that it could be a bug or something and the devs didnt actually intend for it to be obtainable that way or they had another weapon in mind instead of HC but somehow messed up the coding or the unlock requirements. something definitely isnt right here

Dam I'm so happy it's easier to get in the remake, I didn't even bother attempting to get it on the OG game

[@sr_galante]

Players who dedicated themselves to beat pro mode 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

[@spicygaming3783]

I unlocked it om accident just playing mercenaries for my FIRST 3 TIMES, as long as u get a s rank ur fine, and its not hard at all to get in this game with everyones new op abilities

[@utubemj2010]

Thanks for the video man. I got it in about 30 minutes.

[@abu_layla1993]

Thanks a loooot !!! I have just obtained all weapon except the handcannon, when I read the description of how to obtain it !! I felt very depressed. Not that I cannot do it, but come on !! I came here, heard you saying "less than 15 minutes" , wow such a refreshing thing, and I exactly did it in this time, thanks man!! Glad didn't suffer like those who got it the original way 😂❤

[@Darklarik3]

0:10 That Zealot breathing down Luis's Neck like "Yah got a pretty ass pretty boi"

[@PiggySage]

I'm glad they made it easier to obtain, in the og I was only ever able to get five stars with krauser and hunk on all levels. It makes me believe they nerfed it a bit because of this though.

[@magicman4673]

I've got an exclusive upgrade ticket saved up for this exact purpose. NG+ will be a fun gorefest once I get the Mercenaries done.

[@iredrum4fun415]

Did this immediately with this guide thanks

[@delifresh221]

i've been banging my head against professional for nearly 10 hours now and am still stuck on cabin... glad to know i don't need to suffer any longer

[@Louisejames23]

I love thé way when it’s time up everyone just stops & looks at each other 😊😊

[@goya1881]

Glad i found your video, i super underestimated how hard it would be for me to complete a new game on professional

[@glenngratz4077]

Yep, this is how I unlocked it as well. It's a fair bit faster and quite fun to do, actually.

[@REAPER22389]

Hand cannon was the first thing I got when the game dropped. They shoulda added the plaga gun as an unlock for getting S+ on all

[@dj-chemicalz811]

I unlocked this the other night when mercenaries first came out. If I'm being honest I feel really bad about getting it the cheap and easy way, I would've much rather went through on professional to get it but unfortunately nothing I can do about it now. Hopefully they make it harder to get in the future like the original

[@flipskaterdave]

There’s still cat ears to get thought right?

[@TheMothdemon]

To anyone struggling, use Krauser and just use his knife and use the bow and or mayhem on large hordes. I got to almost 500,000 each run easy as pie 😁😊

[@brandonsalisbury7182]

I decided to dive into RE4 & Separate Ways remake after not playing it since beating SW when it released a few months back….when I started a new play through the hand cannon was in my storage & I didn’t even know I unlocked it or I didn’t remember that I did!

[@fpsgoku4207]

I loved struggling to get it. All achievements unlocked for me and lived every second of it

[@derrickrose4233]

This was really fun and i loved playing as Hunk the scores was easy to get and gonna try it on new game+!

[@AngelofDeath1432]

That feels like a slap in the face for beating professional mode with A rank or higher to get armored Ashley and the chicago type writer to unlock the cat ears. Then play professional again again with the cat ears and no bonus weapons to unlock the handcannon.

[@TheMixedBreed1984]

Well I got S rank with all characters on the first map. Now that I gotta do an S rank on the other maps I’m done to get the hand cannon this way.

[@josemendez-fd5qz]

You get 2 exclusive rewards in mercenary mode. You gotta score 500k on all stages with all characters to unlock the RDP outfit and the hand cannon as well.

[@thesimpsonsfan2025]

Thanks Bro For telling Me I Didn't know :)

[@DaNiLY]

This is exactly what I’ve been waiting for

[@averymartin2899]

So unlocking it this way is great but will it be available for your first play through? Or do you have to beat the game once before your able to buy it???

[@kobeke7758]

thx bro thanks to this I unlocked it in 15 minutes and merceneries are actually very fun espacially krauser in my opinion

[@luncas8549]

How come I don’t see the exclusive upgrade available when I have the handcannon fully upgraded?

[@jonathanjefry]

Thanks for the information because I really wanted the hand canon so bad just to tried so now that the mercenaries mode is out now

[@not_Ohmosis]

Was really hoping for them to bring the PRL back from the original RE4.

[@roysrevengefgcofficial1508]

You only need to get an S rank on each stage, doesn't have to be with every character. The easiest way is to pick krauser and just go ham lol

[@QuinnLytleFilms]

Sweet! Now I can get the platinum trophy without wanting to bash my head into a wall. And I'm so glad this looks much easier than the absolute bs that was RE8 mercenaries. I probably grinded factory 2 for a good 5 hours + before getting an S rank. It was stupidly hard

[@Chr15Payne]

Nice. I have it now. Can't wait to plow thru professional with it now, wasn't planning on it but now I'll enjoy it.

[@SgtGnome]

Shaves off one playthrough I need to do then, sweet. I will still need to do new game Professional S+ run to get those achievements and unlock cat ears, but it will be easier using bonus weapons like the Chicago Sweeper and Primal knife. Edit: Just unlocked it via mercenaries. You still need to do the Professional Challenge with no bonus weapons if you want to 100% all challenges, doing this does not circumvent it. Also doesn't seem to count for gun fanatic either. Unless I need to jump in a game and equip it to count, cause so far it still says 27/29 (Working on getting Sweeper)

[@Balder-gb4eq]

The Gun fanatic trophy just popped for me and with it I just got the platnium too. I was fully prepared to complete professional mode I even unlocked the chicken hat in preparation for it but now I dont have to. but probably still will for the prestige

[@nightinxgale7083]

How did you get the platinum, when one of the trophies is to finish professional?

[@jasonballesteros2562]

Man what about us people who got it through NG professional? We should at least get an alternate reward like the PRL 412 from the original

[@CharlieBrown-mx4gq]

Hunk is the best imo, solid weapon and overcharged mode is simply infinite bullets, went straight S everywhere with him first try
