Fans of faintly absurd bonus characters can breathe a sigh of relief today; Capcom has confirmed that both Hunk and Tofu will be returning for the Resident Evil 2 remake on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
For the uninitiated, Hunk and Tofu were bonus characters present in horror classic Resident Evil 2 – appearing in their own mini-missions, and unlocked if various criteria were met. Hunk, a mysterious gas-mask-wearing Umbrella operative, featured in the 4th Survivor mini-mission, and was unlocked by completing the Leon and Claire scenarios with an A rank.
Tofu, a knife-wielding lump of coagulated soy milk, appeared in the unlockable Tofu Survivor mode – a tough reworking of Hunk’s mission, accessed by completing any combination of scenarios six times with an A rank in under two and a half hours.
