Dragami Games has announced that Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP, the latest version cult classic Lollipop Chainsaw, is getting an entirely new mode filled with brand new features that were not in the original release.
The press release is as follows:
TOKYO, JAPAN – 14 April 2025 – Dragami Games, Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo; President: Shohei Sato) is pleased to announce that the major additional content “Nightmare Mode” for the zombie action game LOLLIPOP CHAINSAW RePOP will be available starting at 4:00 AM (PT) on April 14 for PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Steam.
The Nintendo Switch version is scheduled to be released as soon as it receives approval from the platform holder.
In conjunction with this release, a limited-time discount campaign is currently being held on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and Steam.
■What is Nightmare Mode?
Nightmare Mode is an additional content update in which Juliet awakens as a legendary zombie hunter. This mode becomes available after achieving a happy ending in either Original Mode or RePOP Mode.
The setting of this mode is San Romero High School, enveloped in a dark and immersive world within Juliet’s dream. Similar to the Original Mode, the game progresses stage by stage, starting from the prologue.
While the story and dialogue remain the same as in the Original Mode, all zombies appearing in this mode have been replaced with named zombies. Additionally, the “Voices of Darkness” enemies have undergone parameter and behavior changes, making them even more formidable.
In Nightmare Mode, players can obtain various items that awaken Juliet’s latent abilities. By collecting these items, Juliet will fully realize her potential as a legendary zombie hunter, allowing for high-speed, acrobatic battles on an entirely new level.
■Unleash Juliet’s Full Potential as a Legendary Zombie Hunter!
In Nightmare Mode, players can acquire the following eight Awakening Items to enhance Juliet’s abilities:
High-Power Dumbbells – Increases attack power
Speed Armband – Increases attack speed
Winged Sneakers – Increases movement speed
Power Engine – Increases chainsaw movement speed
Smart Chip – Speeds up Sparkle Hunting effects
Chain Motor – Speeds up slicing QTEs
High-Speed Loader – Increases blaster fire rate
Special Backpack – Increases max ammo capacity
Among these, the High-Power Dumbbells and Speed Armband will be available at the start of Nightmare Mode. The other items can be purchased from the in-game shop within the mode.
Additionally, by clearing up to Stage 6, players can obtain the legendary zombie hunter skill ” Aura of Legend ” which enlarges Juliet’s chainsaw and expands its attack range.
These awakened abilities can also be carried over to other modes (Original Mode, RePOP Mode, and Time Attack). With a few exceptions, players can toggle their effects on or off from the options menu.
