As Zach Cregger’s Resident Evil movie<\/u> spreads to theaters across the globe, one dedicated fan has managed to create a Resident Evil 2 mod featuring Austin Abrams’ character, Bryan.<\/p>\n
Considering the modding community’s history with Capcom’s legendary survival horror game franchise, a mod based on the new live-action adaptation felt inevitable. A little more than one week after the film’s premiere, Nexus Mods user D0ct0rSauce has unveiled a Bryan skin, a mod that allows players to keep the unfortunate courier’s horrific run through Raccoon City going in Resident Evil 2.<\/p>\n
While Abrams is the one delivering Bryan’s shrieks and screams throughout Resident Evil’s hour-and-a-half runtime, this fan-made version of the character isn’t quite as detailed. This is more like a PlayStation 1-inspired version of the character, breaking him down to just a few simple polygons as a replacement for Leon’s retro skin. You can see gameplay footage of the mod, featuring art created by X\/Twitter user @mindnumb_opus, below.<\/p>\n

Resident Evil brought Bryan to theaters when it premiered September 18, 2026. Cregger’s latest horror flick managed to exceed expectations with a $108 million global debut<\/u>. It’s an opening tally that earned its place as the biggest first weekend in franchise history just days after reviews cemented it as the highest-rated video game adaptation of all time<\/u>.<\/p>\n
The movie then continued its theatrical run in weekend two with an additional $50 million added to the pot<\/u>. Its total now stands at more than $196.5 million, a number that far exceeds its reported budget of $75 million (via Variety<\/u>).<\/p>\n
IGN gave it an 8\/10 review<\/u>. We said, “With a laser focus on putting its hero through the worst night of his life, Resident Evil is a simple and exciting survival horror story that benefits greatly from director Zach Cregger\u2019s sensibilities.”<\/p>\n

Resident Evil 2 players on PC can imagine Abrams’ Bryan surviving the game’s take on the fall of Raccoon City thanks to D0ct0rSauce and @mindnumb_opus’ work. While we wait to see what the modding community cooks up next, you can catch a glimpse of how Cregger used some creative tricks to bring the film’s most wicked creation to life<\/u>.
