The Winters’ Expansion for Resident Evil Village brings exciting new content to the Mercenaries game mode, including additional levels and two iconic characters: Lady Dimitrescu and Karl Heisenberg. If you’re wondering how to unlock these fan-favorites, this guide breaks it all down for you.
How to Unlock Lady Dimitrescu in Mercenaries
To unlock Lady Dimitrescu, you need to achieve an S Rank in the The Bloody River stage. Once you do, she will become available on the character select screen.
Who Is Lady Dimitrescu?
The internet’s favorite towering vampire, standing at 9 feet, 6 inches, joins the Mercenaries with a melee-heavy combat style. However, due to her height, the developers adjusted her proportions for the game mode so she can fit in most maps.
Lady Dimitrescu’s Playstyle and Abilities
Lady Dimitrescu wields three unique weapons, each upgradable at Duke’s shop:
- Lady’s Nail (Melee): Devastating close-range attacks.
- Ornate Vanity (Ranged): A powerful projectile weapon.
- Insect Swarm (Ranged): Summons a swarm to attack enemies.
When her Thrill meter is full, she can summon one of her daughters to replace the Insect Swarm temporarily, adding even more chaos to her attacks.

Once you hit this milestone, Heisenberg will appear on the character select screen, located to the right of Chris Redfield.
Who Is Karl Heisenberg?
Karl Heisenberg, the mechanical mastermind of Resident Evil Village, brings a mix of melee and ranged attacks, making him a versatile addition to the Mercenaries.

Heisenberg’s arsenal includes:
