Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP “Nightmare Mode” update arriving this April

Posted on March 19, 2025 by in News, Switch

An all-new update will be arriving just next month for Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP. After previous updates addressing performance and frame rate issues, this next update includes an all-new story that is accessible after clearing certain requirements. Check out more details below, as rounded up by Gematsu:

“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.

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:

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.
