Set 1

Costume set "Special 1" is unlocked by completing the game once in all versions of the main game.

Leon - RPD uniform

The RPD outfit for Leon. This is an updated version of his outfit in Resident Evil 2.

The RPD outfit has the same effects as the Tactical Vest (shaving 30% of all damage taken) The tactical vest itself can also be purchased to stop 60% damage. However this effect is not present in the Wii and HD re-release versions.

Ashley - Pop star

Ashley appears in white and red-trimmed pop star outfit.

Ada - Combat

Ada appears clad in black combat gear. It also has the butterfly icon on her shoulder that is also present on her default dress. This is the same costume she wears during the Assignment Ada minigame.

Costume set "Special 2" is not available in the Gamecube version. For all other version it is unlocked by completing Separate Ways.

Leon - Gangster

Leon S. Kennedy appears as a gangster. Complete with a red tie, fedora, gloves, and a white scarf. This will also change reskin his knife into a switchblade. Last, this change the appearance of the Chicago Typewriter; the magazine will be changed to a ammo drum.

Special animations are given to Leon when reloading the Chicago Typewriter: reloading once, twice or thrice in a row will result in Leon adjusting his hat. Reloading a fourth time results in Leon performing a trick where he throws his hat up and catches it.

The gangster outfit reduces enemy damage by 60% and when combined with the Tactical Vest reduces 90% damage from enemies rendering Leon virtually unharmed.

Again the protection bonus is not present in the Wii and HD re-release versions.

Ashley - Armor

Ashley Graham appears in a complete medieval suit of armor. Only part of her face can be seen normally. When aiming a gun at her the face protection lowers itself. The suit makes her invincible to enemy attack. She also can not be picked up by enemies as they will immediately drop her. When Leon catches Ashley from a fall, he will flinch from the massive weight.
