As Zach Cregger's Resident Evil movie spreads to theaters across the globe, one dedicated fan has managed to create a Resident Evil 2 mod featuring Austin Abrams' character, Bryan.
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.
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.

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. 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.
The movie then continued its theatrical run in weekend two with an additional $50 million added to the pot. Its total now stands at more than $196.5 million, a number that far exceeds its reported budget of $75 million (via Variety).
IGN gave it an 8/10 review. 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’s sensibilities."
