The recently-released Resident Evil 4 Remake is really living up to its original game. It has many graphics enhancements, quality-of-life improvements and a lot of gameplay changes as well. Here we’ve compiled our favourite mods to spice up your Resident Evil 4 Remake gameplay. Trust me, you’re going to want to check this list out.

QUALITY OF LIFE MODS

1. HEALTH BARS

Health Bars by GreenComfyTea

You know what’s annoying? Shooting your all your bullets and wondering “HOW ARE THEY NOT DEAD YET!!?” Well, we’ve got that problem solved for you. With health bars on all your enemies, you know just how much damage you need to dish out. This does break immersion but if you value convenience over that, then this is the mod for you.

This mod doesn’t just let you see health bars, it also shows you which weapons are the best to use for damage.

2. SIMPLE FOV

Simple FOV by blackholesun01

If you’re a blind rat like me, this mod is truly a dream come true. This mod lets you adjust your FOV (and does not effect picking up items or cutscenes). This will also help people who get motion sickness from low FOVs in games. Say goodbye to missing loot you might have missed without this mod.

3. DEADLY HEADSHOTS

Deadly Headshots by alteredbeast

This mod makes headshots an insta-kill. One shot to the head and BOOM dead. In the game, if you hit headshots you’re punished for it in a way, as it often leads to Las Plagas emerging. If you’re tired of that, well, this mod will cure all your problems. You still need to nail those headshots, which can be hard if you’re a terrible shot… like me. Get this mod and become the new Leon Wick!

Speaking of Leon Wic, here are some mods that you HAVE TO check out for fun.

1. KEANU REEVES

Keanu Reeves by Crazy Potato

Big fan of John Wick? Well good news, you can now become Leon Wick. Channel your inner assassin and perform some crazy moves seen in the movies. Players will take on challenges in game with Keanu’s signature style and moves.

2. SHIRTLESS LEON

Shirtless Leon by TrieuPham

Yes, it does what’s expected. This mod removes Leon’s stylish jacket and body armor so you can get a faceful of those… nips.

3. LEON KENNEDY TRAMP STAMP

Leon Kennedy Tramp Stamp (Full Game) by TrieuPham

If shirtless is too much for you, and you want to make him look spicier, this mod gives Leon a thong, a tramp stamp and a cute crop top.

4. Kratos Leon (Full Game)

Kratos Leon (Full Game) by TrieuPham

You can also play Leon as the iconic Kratos from God of War looking like a complete God of Sparta.

5. Ashley 2B colour theme

Ashley 2B color theme by vainiuss1

If you’re a big fan of Nier Automata, this is a simple texture mod that changes Ashley to resemble 2B from Nier Automata. It’s not really a big chance since it’s only a basic texture mod, this only changes her hair colour as well as the colour of her outfit. 2B Ashley suits the aesthetic of the remake if you ask me. Please note that this doesn’t impact her model or any voice lines in the game.

6. BANANA GUN AND SPOON KNIFE MOD

BANANA GUN AND SPOON KNIFE MOD by Stevebg23

Praise Steve! This mod gives a comical weapon modifcation that swaps out your handgun for a Banana and your knife for a Spoon. Go forth trying to kill your enemies without laughing your ass off!

7. SHREK – GET OUT OF MY SWAAAAAAAMP!

Shrek by Iven

GET OUT OF MY SWAAAAAAAAAMP! Everyone’s favourite ogre makes his return in this remake by replacing Salvador, the chainsaw man. Picture a large green ogre running towards you with a giant chainsaw. I can’t decide whether it’s scary or funny. PLUS, the expression on his face is always a smile so…. that makes it even more terrifying if you ask me.
