There’s nothing wrong with seeing the similarities betweenSilent Hill 2andResident Evil 4. Both feature a great deal of horror and action, and the two games shouldn’t be pitted against each other in insult. They’re both great games with equally great protagonists, so why not bring Leon Kennedy into the town of Silent Hill?
This mod simply replaces the character model of James Sunderland with Leon from theResident Evil 4remake, bringing forth another horror-series remake icon into yet another remake. It might add a new layer of immersion by having thisexpert combatantinstead of James who might be missing his quiet desk job right about now.

Maria is one of the many characters who look great in theSilent Hill 2remake, but for players who prefer a classic touch of nostalgia, the Original Maria Outfit mod from Swiz19 might be for them. While the mod does feature optional cosmetics for Maria, the best part of it comes from the fact it brings back Maria’s original outfit, something that was jokingly teased back at Jacks Inn.
With Maria’s original outfit modded into the game, players canbring back further familiarityfrom the 2001 original game. There’s nothing wrong with the remake’s outfit, but for those seeking nostalgia, this could be something to try out.

On the topic of nostalgia, what better way to re-experienceSilent Hill 2than with the original model for James Sunderland? It might seem a little out of place to run around the beautiful PS5 renditions of Silent Hill with the PS2 model of James Sunderland, but that just adds to the charm and the mystery of this man out of place in a town since abandoned.
This mod is a character model replacement and comes complete with facial animations, and while it might be a tad buggy, it’s something that NorskPL will improve at a later time, and it’s a great first character model swap mod, especially for those who can’t bear to be without 2001 James.

1Mary Pipe

Perhaps one of the most bizarre mods out there, FrancisLouis provides players with a new model for the Steel Pipe melee weapon, and it’s none other than the character model of Mary, James’ dead wife. When players pull out their melee weapons to fight monsters and destroy the breakable walls, they will now be wielding Mary herself.
It’s a wild mod that just embraces the fun and silly side of the modding community. James loves Mary and wants to find her in their special place, so why not bring her along as the perfect stick tobeat up enemieswith?
