Mercenaries

So this is a real mini-game. Unlike Assignment Ada which is more like a sidequest. It first appeared in RE3. You have to kill as many enemies as you can before the chopper arrives to pick you up. The more you kill, the better your score is. The better your score is the more stars you earn. 4 stars earn you a new character. If you get 5 stars on each level you get the hand cannon, a kickass Magnum.

To Unlock Ada (See Characters): Get a 4-Star Rating at the Pueblo Area

To Unlock Krauser (See Characters): Get a 4-Star Rating at the Castle Area

To Unlock Hunk: Get a 4-Star Rating at the Mountainside Area

To Unlock Wesker (See Characters): Get a 4-Star Rating at the Waterworld Area

Guides

Mountainside: Considering that this is the only stage I’ve beaten I’ll put something up for it. Immediately equip the Riot Gun. You’ll find enough shotgun ammo to keep you going and if not, the Blacktail will keep you safe in a pinch. Depending on where you start either blast away at the enemies as much as possible or run and get extra time. The entire stage is filled with extra time stuff. This is important because you can’t get 4 Stars in a minute. Key points are to kill the Gatling Gunners ASAP and find a treasure chest if you can and then kill lots of enemies. It gives you a lot of time. So if you get 4 Stars you’ll unlock Special Agent Hunk. Personally he’s not my favorite because the TMP sucks but his Neck Snap move is awesome in Pueblo for the Bella Sisters (See Boss Fights).
