In December 2021, modder ‘y2keeth’ released an HD overhaul mod for the first Prey game. And earlier today, the modder released a brand new version of this unofficial HD remaster for this classic FPS game.
Prey HiDef attempts to improve the graphics of the game by improving its textures and 3D models, as well as adding full shadows map files.
While y2keeth has not provided any changelog, we can assume that this latest version improves more textures (and perhaps additional 3D models). Thus, if you plan to replay this game, we suggest downloading the mod from here. Version 2.0 is 6.47GB in size, whereas its previous version was only 2.85GB.
Lastly, you can find below some screenshots and a gameplay video. These screenshots should give you a better idea of what you can expect from the mod.
Speaking of older games, we also suggest downloading this HD Texture Pack for F.E.A.R. There are also HD Project Mods for Dino Crisis, Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver, and Call of Duty. You can also find similar HD mods for Thief Gold, Thief II & Thief 2X, Star Wars: KOTOR, KOTOR 2, Star Wars Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II, Grand Theft Auto Vice City, Morrowind, Turok 2, Hexen, Final Fantasy 9, Max Payne, Final Fantasy 7, Resident Evil HD Remaster, Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3.
Have fun!

Do a remaster and then upload a 720p video to demo it?
Kind of defeats the purpose of upgrading graphics …..
this is the video i uploaded https://youtu.be/AVHLrrS8eZE
mobdb must convert it to 720
You’d be surprised how many people still do this today. I assume it’s usually because they don’t understand how to configure their screen recording software, or because their upstream bandwidth is so low that uploading a 1080p video would take way too long.
I’m so spoiled being on fiber, I will literally upload videos that are 60+ GB in size because it just doesn’t matter. Not that the end quality ends up being any better unless its HDR, because my channel is too small for YouTube to use VP9 for my videos and their H.264 quality is extremely poor.
I uploaded to youtube at 1080p moddb must reduce it to 720p

Reddit does the same thing. It significantly reduces the amount of disk space that the videos take up, and the amount of bandwidth used when people watch them.
I upload to youtube at 1080p I think modb reduces it

After all these years still holds up because of good semi realistic art style with visual and conceptual variety which is lacking in many games now .
agreed, phenomenal game.
Finally i couldnt enjoy the game without having hd textures on the alien vagina doors.
Sadly still capped at 63 fps, anything above that and the game speeds up. Waiting for AI frame generation.
I have fond memories of this game. I loved how you learned new skills: you ventured into a dream state and an indian shaman taught you sh*t while a campfire crackled in the background. maximum comfy. to this day this is the most original skill upgrade idea. absolutely brilliant game
oh an thanks again for featuring my mod
New mod files ask for a CD Key through Steam, which Steam doesn’t inherently need for this game, nor does it give one for you to type in. Useless mod for Steam users.
Have you tried putting a cd key from search sites?
I could do it the hard way, but I’m more upset that it’s not a plug and play mod. Also, the language changes to spanish with no options in the menu to change it back to english. Not worth the trouble.
The dev is commenting in this story, maybe you could try asking him for support.
go in the BASE folder, open preyconfig.cfg, search for word ‘spanish
When it finds it, change to ‘english’ and save
cd key I have no idea contact steam I would

sorry for speaking like yoda lol
just found out ng shaders is what changed the language to Spanish I will see how to fix that
patch 2.1 fixes that Spanish issue but you will still need to change it back in the preyconfig.cfg
made a patch for that issue you will still need to change your default language like shown in the other comment

As Chandler would say, could this game be more underrated? ?
version 3.0 is now available
