Quality of Life Improvements:
- The resolution of the game has been increased to full HD, and load times have been greatly shortened.
- The chainsaw action has been sped up with the introduction of the Chained Hits Hunting system, in which chaining multiple hits in succession increases the player's attack speed.
- The input timings for Combo Actions have been adjusted, to better fit players' expectations.
- Chainsaw Blaster action has been improved with the addition of auto-lock and auto-fire modes that can be toggled, and an increased maximum ammo count of 99.
- The player can now immediately use Combo Actions at the start of the game.
Additional Gameplay Content:
- Separate from Original Mode, RePOP adds "RePOP mode", which uses a unique and colorful pop art-inspired art style for damage effects.
- Unique new chainsaws with distinctly different features have been added.
- There are 30 costumes, more than the original game's costume count. Combined with the addition of 4 new hair colors and 4 new chainsaws, this adds up to 750 different possible combinations.
- JULIET'S ROOM has been expanded with more features.
- A Time Attack mode with ranking feature has been added.
