LOLLIPOP CHAINSAW RePOP started as a remake but ended up as a remaster of the original LOLLIPOP CHAINSAW (2012). RePOP is a definitive version of the game which leaves the story unchanged, with the focus on quality-of-life improvements and additional gameplay content.
According to the devs, this remaster will have reduced load times. Moreover, it will allow you to increase the resolution to 4K (however it’s still unknown whether it will support framerates higher than 60fps).
The chainsaw action has been sped up with the introduction of the Chained Hits Hunting system, in which chaining multiple hits in succession increases the player’s attack speed. Moreover, the input timings for Combo Actions have been adjusted, to better fit players’ expectations.
Chainsaw Blaster action has been improved with the addition of auto-lock and auto-fire modes that can be toggled, and an increased maximum ammo count of 99. Not only that but the player can now immediately use Combo Actions at the start of the game.
Dragami Games has also added a new RePOP mode, which uses a unique and colorful pop art-inspired art style for damage effects. This is an additional mode. In other words, the remake will also have an Original Mode with all the gore from the original version.
Players can also expect unique new chainsaws with distinctly different features. There will also be 30 costumes, more than the original game’s costume count. Combined with the addition of 4 new hair colors and 4 new chainsaws, this adds up to 750 different possible combinations.
Finally, the devs have expanded JULIET’S ROOM with more features, and they have added a Time Attack mode with ranking feature.
Stay tuned for more!
