Step-by-Step: How to Unlock Infinite Ammo
To unlock Infinite Ammo in Resident Evil Requiem, you first need to complete the main story on any difficulty. Once done, the Special Content Shop unlocks, where Infinite Ammo (Guns) can be purchased for 50,000 CP.
The challenge? A first playthrough nets roughly 12,000 CP — even with thorough exploration — which is well short of the 50,000 CP required.
Here’s the fastest route:
| Playthrough | Strategy | CP Earned |
|---|---|---|
| 1st Run | Any difficulty, explore thoroughly | ~10,000–12,000 CP |
| 2nd Run | Complete on Insanity difficulty | 40,000 CP |
| Speedrun Bonus | Complete under 4 hours | 20,000 CP |
| No Heals Bonus | Finish without healing items | 35,000 CP |
The fastest way is to complete your second playthrough on Insanity difficulty, which rewards 40,000 CP. Combined with your first-run earnings, this pushes you cleanly past the 50,000 CP threshold. PC Gamer
Pro Tips to Farm CP Faster
By stacking challenges intelligently — combining speed-based clears, higher difficulty runs, enemy elimination milestones, and collectible completion — you can realistically unlock Infinite Ammo within three well-optimised playthroughs rather than grinding five or more.
Also worth knowing: Infinite Ammo does NOT disable trophies or achievements — you can use it freely even on Insanity difficulty and Speedrun attempts. So go ahead and equip it guilt-free.
Bonus unlocks worth saving CP for:
- Infinite RPG — 35,000 CP (one-shots everything, Leon only)
- Unbreakable Knife — grace’s melee combat lifesaver
- Advanced Tuning — extra weapon tuning per gun
