Resident Evil 4 Remake introduces controversial pay-to-progress microtransactions.

Capcom has added pay-to-progress microtransactions to Resident Evil 4 Remake, allowing players to purchase "Resident Evil 4 Weapon Exclusive Upgrade Tickets" for $3 each, with bundles of three for $7 and five for $10. This allows players to unlock weapon upgrades that would otherwise require hours of gameplay to earn in-game currency. The move has drawn criticism from players who see it as a way to nickel-and-dime them for content that fundamentally changes gameplay.
