It’s been over a month since theResident Evil 2remake released on consoles and PC, but there appears to be no end in sight to the relentless flow of player-created mods, which largely focus on adding an element of silliness to the otherwise terrifying and suspenseful experience. Most recently, a modder was able to transform the terrifying tyrant, Mr. X intoThomas The Tank Engineand now aResident Evil 2mod is making the rounds that just may be the most ridiculous yet.
The latest fan-made creation to come out of theResident Evil 2modding community turns all of the game’s zombies into giant servings of tofu. Creator Snipz says his latestResident Evil 2mod pays tribute to the tofu mode from 2009’sResident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles, however the tofu character originally appeared in the “The Tofu Survivor” scenario from the original 1998Resident Evil 2. The mod is now available for download via Nexus.
The abundance of user-created mods is likely a blessing toResident Evil 2fans running short on new ways to experience the game after completing its two main campaigns and DLC. Another popular mod to emerge within the last week takes a more subtle approach compared to the tofu mod,adding vocal expressions of frustration to Claire Redfieldevery time she downs a zombie. This one seemed to be a nod to a common complaint that zombies can sometimes take an absurd amount of shots before collapsing and finally dying.
As many likely suspect, the good-humored nature of theseResident Evil 2mods is likely intended to alleviate some of the dread that comes with playing such a tense, unforgiving game. Most notably, the imposing Mr. X tyrant has been the subject of numerous mods that lessen the nerve-shattering impact of his looming presence.
Speaking of Mr. X,Resident Evil 2isn’t the only game where players might come face to face with the seemingly unstoppable tyrant. Recently,Mr. X was featured in PUBG Mobileas part of a crossover event withResident Evil 2.
Resident Evil 2is out now on Xbox One, PS4, and PC.
