There are a also different character modifications and replacements on NexusMods, with more likely to come now that the full game has been released.
No Yellow Paint
Some games provide context clues that help the player understand where to go or what to break at certain points. In the Resident Evil 4 remake, certain objects have markers in yellow paint that show you different contextual items, but it breaks some players’ immersion. With the No Yellow Paint mod, players will be able to change the paint to something less obvious or remove it completely.
Health Bars
When you’re fighting different enemies in the base version of the Resident Evil 4 remake, it can be hard to know how close you are to defeating an enemy. With the Health Bars mod, players can have a constant visual reminder to let them know how close they are to defeating enemies. While this will cut down on immersion, it will make the game a little bit easier.
Deadly Headshots
If you want to be able to take out enemies with a single shot, then the Deadly Headshots mod will be perfect for you. This mod will ensure that each bullet to the brain ends your enemies, following the rules set by zombie movies from decades past.
