HUNK/gameplay

Resident Evil 4


HUNK is a playable character in the non-canon minigame, The Mercenaries minigame in Resident Evil 4. His appearance differs from Resident Evil 2, as he now wears an entirely different outfit which was his design in both Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles and Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles. He is armed with a custom TMP with an AN/PEQ laser unit mounted to the right of the heavily-reinforced barrel shroud with a pressure switch wire running to the foregrip, as well as a folding wire stock, a non-protruding barrel, a shroud-mounted handguard, and an extended magazine. Much like Leon's and Ada's TMPs, the front iron sight is dropped flat.

The stats for HUNK's TMP are:

He is also armed with 50 extra TMP rounds, three hand grenades and a first aid spray. This light load keeps HUNK's inventory very open and uncluttered, with an extra 42 spaces free (10x4+2). Because it is unlikely that his case will be filled completely during the course of a mission, inventory management is negligible. The only items that his foes will drop are grenades, TMP ammunition, and healing items. HUNK has 7 bars of life, and can take a fair beating, but is not by any means the most resilient Mercenary. Only Ada is weaker, with 6.5 bars. He can take 5 hits from normal villagers before dying, and only 3 from stronger enemies, such as Stun Rod-wielding Ganados or strikes from a Garrador.

HUNK also has two special moves, like every other Mercenary. When an enemy has taken a hit to the head and is stumbling, he uses the Neckbreaker move, which instantly kills the enemy. This is capable of killing the two Bella Sisters instantly, but it cannot be used on the other bosses, including J.J., Super Salvador and the Garrador. When an enemy gets hit in the calf or kneecaps and falls to their knees, HUNK can use the Riot Kick, a single, powerful kick which can knock an enemy back several yards. Although this can break up a group of enemies, it is intended to knock foes back and is usually not a one hit kill. Since HUNK's TMP burns ammo quickly, a skillful player must rely on HUNK's takedowns more than any other character to survive, HUNK also does not have a knife, thus a player cannot simply slash a Ganado in order to perform a Neckbreaker.

Due to his lack of knife, if HUNK runs out of TMP ammunition and grenades, he must rely on environmental damage, (such as kicking open doors or knocking foes down when they try to climb ladders) as his only means of attack. He may also allow a Ganado to grab him and then quickly break free, hopefully kicking off the Ganado's head. In this situation the player must use these environmental and physical attacks and hope for an ammo drop.
