Summary

  • Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP will add a ‘Nightmare Mode’ in an April update.
  • More details about the new mode will be unveiled next week.
  • While the remaster of the 2012 game has sold over 200,000 copies, some players have complained about its poor optimization.

In April, the game “Lollipop Chainsaw: RePOP” will introduce a challenging new feature called “Nightmare Mode.” Since its release, this over-the-top action-adventure remaster has received numerous updates, and it seems that the game is gearing up to become even tougher with this latest addition.

Launched in September 2024, the game Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP has just hit a significant achievement, having sold 200,000 copies within its first three months on sale. The original game, developed by Grasshopper Manufacture, has earned cult status since its release, thanks to its captivating hack-and-slash mechanics and lovable character, Juliet Starling. Now, development duties have been passed to Dragami Games, who’ve added several user-friendly features and a long-overdue graphical upgrade. However, the developers aren’t quite done yet, as another update is planned for those seeking a tougher challenge.

Yoshimi Yasuda, designer of Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP, recently shared on Twitter that they’re adding a “Nightmare Mode” in an upcoming April update. Yasuda hinted at further details about this new mode coming out next week. The team at Dragami Games continues to expand the game with additional features, much appreciated by long-term fans who have praised them for their ongoing dedication. Back in December 2024, Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP introduced a photo mode – a feature many players had been eagerly waiting for since its initial launch.

Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP Adding Nightmare Mode in April Update

Initially, fans who have been following the zombie game for some time have lauded various features of the remastered version, but not everyone has been pleased with it. Immediately after its debut, Dragami Games addressed allegations about censorship in Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP, and gamers have voiced concerns over the game’s suboptimal performance. Furthermore, a significant portion of the original game’s renowned soundtrack is absent from RePOP, causing disappointment among those who were looking forward to reliving the 2012 game’s rock anthems. Despite the continued presence of its offbeat storyline and intense action, many continue to hope for updates that will enhance the overall gaming experience.

Even though Goichi “Suda51” Suda didn’t continue his involvement with the project for Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP, the game designer has a full schedule ahead of him. In August 2024, Suda expressed enthusiasm about potentially reviving Killer7 in collaboration with Shinji Mikami, as this 2005 action-adventure game remains popular today. They previously worked together on Shadows of the Damned in 2011, and a recent remastered version of the game has reunited these renowned developers once more. In addition to that, Suda is also developing Hotel Barcelona, an upcoming “2.5D slasher film parody action” game set for release around early 2025.
