One Dangerous Zombie

"One Dangerous Zombie" is a feature in the Resident Evil remake which adds a new zombie type to the mansion. In the modern HD remasters, this feature is unlocked after beating both protagonists' games on Normal or Hard. On the GCN and Wii, players must beat Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine with "Once Again..." (thereby beating the game four times). This feature cannot be turned off after activation.

Gameplay

The game plays the same as before, with the sole exception of "Bomb Zombie" appearing during the first sections of the game. Bomb Zombie is S.T.A.R.S. officer Forest Speyer, but wears a vest with multiple grenades strapped to his bandoleer.

Bomb Zombie only spawns in a handful of rooms, so can be anticipated by gamers. Normally, Bomb Zombie will immediately charge at the player as soon as they enter the room, and can be heard from afar by the rattling of his grenades. He runs as fast as a Crimson Head, and replaces all zombies that should be in the room. Once the player returns from the Plant 42 fight with the Helmet Key, Bomb Zombie will disappear for good.

Bomb Zombie must be avoided at all costs. He cannot be killed by the player, as this will set off the grenade and kill them, even if shot from a distance. Defense Items like the Dagger, Flash Grenade and Stun Gun also cannot be used, so players being grappled must allow themselves to be bitten.
