What is Re4 Remake Professional Mode? (Explained)
The Professional Mode in Resident Evil 4 Remake has several differences in difficulty and gameplay mechanics. One of the major changes is that there are no Autosaves during the Professional Mode playthrough. So, you must rely on the Typewriters to save your game manually. Although if you are looking for an S+ rank, you would want to keep a check on the Saves.
Secondly, Parrying is limited to only Perfect Parries. With lesser close-range options, you must be precise and accurate every time. While it may take a few tries at first, Perfect Parrying can help improve your skills. You can check out our guide on how to parry for some tips and more insights.
Now, the Silver Lining to the Professional mode is that all Weapon modifications will be available from the start. But if you have chosen the NG+ mode, you will have the weapon mods anyway. However, it can give you an early advantage in beating the Parasites and other monsters.
Lastly, you can unlock and buy several unlockables by choosing the Professional Mode. For the players wanting to unlock and get the Chicago Typewriter, beat the RE4 Remake in Professional Mode within 7 hours. Once you earn an A+ rank and unlock this weapon, you can buy it from the Extra Content Shop for 1000 CP.
