HD Texture Pack for Resident Evil 2 Remake Makes the Game Look Even Better
When talking about survival horror, it's hard not to mention Resident Evil, given that it's one of the most influential, and long-standing, franchises in the genre. With 1998's Resident Evil 2 celebrating 24 years recently, it's a series that has not only stood the test of time, but is enjoying a resurgence thanks to new releases, as well as the remakes. While both RE2 and RE3 remake are visually stunning games in general, one modder decided to try and up the graphics somewhat with a new HD texture pack.
Uploading the file to NexusMods recently, user Ashok has seen to it that the 2019 remake of Resident Evil 2 is given a bit of a tweak to some of the visuals to really make the game pop. Using assets from both this game and RE3 remake, the mod represents an overhaul that includes higher resolutions of more than 100 textures, saying that resolutions go from 1K up to 4K. In particular, images on the mod page show side-by-side comparisons between the vanilla game and the high-def version, showing greater clarity in things like signs and posters.

It might not sound like much, but it all goes towards improving the general look and feel of the game. There are, after all, a lot of ways for Resident Evil 2 to be modded and customized, something that is part and parcel when it comes to the PC gaming community. For anyone interested in improving their games, Ashok's HD texture pack is certainly an interesting one, especially for fans who are keen on graphical fidelity, or just want to clean up some of the fuzzier aspects of the game.
The fact that both RE2 and RE3 now have VR mods shows that there is still so much potential in these remakes, and in the franchise as a whole.
