And that’s not all, you will need to achieve an A rank and complete the game in less than 7 hours. This will ensure that you reach Leon “A”. Kennedy, challenge and unlock the Chicago Sweeper.

Professional difficulty is by no means easy, because not only will enemies be harder to defeat, but supplies will be scarce. We recommend choosing the Professional difficulty level only after completing the first playthrough of RE4 Remake. Once the New Game+ option becomes available, you will be able to upgrade to Professional difficulty with all of your upgraded weapons and currency. This will help you a lot in reaching the A rank on the Professional difficulty level.

Once you complete the full playthrough of RE4 Remake on Professional difficulty, you will unlock the Chicago Sweeper. Now you just need to head to the additional content store. The submachine gun will be available for purchase for 1000 CP.
