Resident Evil’s finest floppy hair returns
There is this strange contingent ofResident Evilfans who believe anyResigame can be improved simply by addingResident Evil 2protagonist Leon S. Kennedy. And by “contingent”, I mean “me”. I believe that So I was stoked to see that one talentedBiohazard fanis already getting Raccoon City’s unluckiest cop ready to make hisResident Evil Villagedebut.
As spotted by Siliconera, PC modder “JTegh” is currently in the process of developing a hack that will not only see Leon set foot inVillage‘s grim, snowy, Eastern European hellscape, but they are also aiming to have him star in a third-person capacity. After all, what’s the point of even playing as Leon is you’re able to’t see his camel jacket and John Connor side-parting? The model of Leon was built using his Dead by Daylight character model blended with the head of hisResident Evil 2remake appearance.
JTegh does note that there are several bugs to contend with — such as Leon’s shoulders going all wraparound whenever he aims down sights — but it’s still fun to see him contend with Lady Dimitrescu and pals — in third-person no less! As for official additions toResident Evil Village,Capcom hasnoted its intentionto create DLC for the survival horror sequel in the future but is yet to offer any details as to what that will entail, or when it will arrive. So we’ll all just have to sit tight for now.
All these mods and nobody has made apuppet Lady Dimitrescumodel swap yet… Such a shame.
“Your right hand comes off?"– Leon to Ethan probably.
