‘Resident Evil 2’ Remake Gets HD With This New Textures Mod

Published

on

You thought fans were done modding the 2019 hit that was the Resident Evil 2 remake? Think again. While the base game looks fantastic, there are a few irksome low-res textures here and there. Modder Ashok over at Nexus Mods has sought to remedy that with their HD Texture Pack for the PC version.

The mod replaces over 100 existing textures with high-res textures ranging from 1K to 4K in size. Some of the textures have been borrowed from Resident Evil 3 remake assets, while others have been remade from scratch.

The modder highly recommends the textures for VR, which if you’ve been paying attention, is now possible for Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3. It’s not an earth-shattering change, but it definitely helps with the immersion factor. You can check out some of the before and after shots below.

Meanwhile, we’re still waiting on Capcom to dish out something in regards to the Resident Evil Village DLC. Not to mention just what’s happening with Resident Evil Re:Verse, which is expected to be released sometime this year (hopefully).

And hey, if for whatever reason you still haven’t grabbed Resident Evil 2 yet, the Steam version is currently enjoying a 60% discount during the Lunar New Year Sale.

Thanks to DSOGaming for the heads up!

‘Crow Country’ Adds Xbox Series Release for May 9th [Trailer]

Published

Xbox owners feeling left out over SFB Games’ throwback Survival Horror title Crow Country coming to Steam and PlayStation? Never fear, as the developer has secured an Xbox Series release via the Microsoft Store, which will launch on May 9th as the other platforms. And to celebrate, Xbox owners also get a new trailer announcing Crow Country coming to the platform alongside the PlayStation 5 and PC.

In this brand new horror inspired by classics from the original PlayStation, Crow Country takes place in the year 1990. It’s been two years since the mysterious disappearance of Edward Crow and the abrupt closure of his theme park, the eponymous Crow Country. You are Mara Forest, and you’re searching for some answers from Crow. You’ll need to venture deep into the abandoned Crow Country theme park and uncover the secrets behind its Crow’s sudden disappearance.

Crow Country will see you immerse yourself in a richly atmospheric, deeply sinister world evocative of late 90s pre-rendered graphics. You’ll need to make every bullet count as you manage limited resources and try to survive against the creatures that stalk the eerily tranquil grounds of the amusement park.

Monsters aren’t your only problem, however. Crow Country hides many secrets behind its locked gates, requiring you to overcome the gauntlet of puzzles and challenges that stand between you and the truth. And for those who want to immerse themselves in the atmosphere without having to battle against the inhabitants of the park, there’s the “Exploration Mode”, which switches off the combat to focus entirely on solving the mystery and exploration.

Crow Country will be available for $19.99 USD. You can also check out the demo on Steam.
