Resident Evil 2 Remake is one of the best remakes we’ve seen to date. However, and perhaps its only controversial feature, is the inclusion of Mr. X. While some players believed that its inclusion stayed true to the original game, some players felt those encounters to be boring, repetitive and tedious. If you were among them, you’ll find the following mod quite interesting.
As its title suggests, this mod for Resident Evil 2 Remake completely removes Mr. X from the game. What’s also cool here is that this mod does not break any scripted events evolving Mr. X as a friendly ghost has been used in his place.
Thanks to this mod, players will be able to freely explore the game’s environments without the constant fear of meeting Mr. X. As such, you will be able to play the game at a slower pace and enjoy additional finer details you could not see in the first place.
As for those that still enjoyed Mr. X, you know what would have been even cooler? A mod that adds the pre-rendered cut-scene from the original Resident Evil 2 game to this Remake, in which Mr. X is being dropped from a helicopter (as well as the cut-scene that shows how the burning helicopter was actually taken down). In my opinion, that cut-scene was crucial as it properly introduced Mr. X to the game.
But anyway, those interested can download this mod from here.
Have fun!

Ohh i thought i was the only one who hated RE2 Remake because of this Mr X fella, he wasn’t hard to avoid or anything, just boring and makes you backtrack a lot in a game where you are always backtracking to open hidden paths you couldn’t access before which ruined the fun for me especially at Hardcore mode, would totally install it again just for this mode.
I’m in the pro Mr X camp because he is what a boss should be in a classic RE game, in the sense that RE is mainly about efficient navigation and inventory and resource management, so you get to explore the RPD at your own pace and then comes Mr X as your final exam forcing you do it again but quickly and smartly.
Oh thank god. For a second I thought it’s a nude Mr X mod
LMAO !!
Haha, you know Johnny BOI all too well don’t ya? .. LMAO ???
FYI there is a mod to make Mr X wear nothing but a thong.
You tryin to give me nightmares mate?
Well, a lot of people complain that Mr X is just annoying instead of scary, I just thought that mod could help your immersion by making him a lot scarier. Knowing that there’s this huge pale muscleman in a thong coming for your bunghole makes those thunderous footsteps a lot more intimidating.
Presumably popular at Polygon and PC Gamer.
It was Eurogamer actually:

Oh my, not that imbecile again! Eurogamer has steadily descended into being Polygon-lite these past couple of years.
I seem to remember reports of their staff having recently admitted on social media that they’re political activists. Anyone with sense of course already knew this but it was nevertheless revealing to witness them being upfront about it.
Little would surprise me when it comes to how dreadful Eurogamer is given that one of their regular freelancers, Jeffrey Matulef, was one of the games ‘journalists’ caught up in the GameJournoPros scandal.
This last couple of years?
Pretty much every big name gaming site has been infested with partisan soygoblins since 2014 if not earlier, it’s the whole reason why I started looking for alternative sites until I landed on DSOG, among others.
Agreed. I suppose it would have been more accurate if I were to have said Eurogamer has only gone full Brietard these past couple of years. The site is now so soy-infested that it’s pretty much a meme.
who doesnt? even ign joined this bs
IGN, not that much, they still have that daily news round up with good looking women, all the teens just come there to comment how hot she is and shes OK but not by much
GameSpot had the same show some time ago run by ?ransvest?te monster, it was called Caroline Petit, it no longer at gamespot thou, works for the sh?tskin b?tc? now.
Calling that a scandal is gross oerexaggeration.
Calling that a “gross oerexaggeration” is a scandal.
You mean SoyGamer?
Is this Wesley guy a gay??why he hate boobs but praise man thong..smh
Not gay, a feminist, which is actually bad.
You right, I see the article about it on PC gamer, it was article about nude mods in RE BUT for some reason all the FIRST mods were for males and wemen came last.
I made a comment about that and some SJW screamed at me.
It made me happy.
So pointing out how sad and pathetic the makers and users of nude mods are makes one an SJW?
You are an SJW with reading comprehension issues.
Nothing pathetic about nude mods, its completely natural unless your some cave dwelling religious creature or a LibSlime that supports me2 and feminazis.
What happened in SJWGamer web site is that the losers had a list of RE2re Nude mods, and even thou they know most gamers are men and most people that play RE are men, they decided to cozy up to the SJWs and put Male nudes first in the list, for whom ?
for Faglets and wemen? Not for normal Man for sure, so i told them!
and the SJW rat started to scream something about a thing called diversity and some bs about some equality and that we should be happy that there is a list and so on…
it exists.
Excellent news – was putting off buying the game because of Mr X.
Can’t stand games with relentless, unbeatable enemies like that in them. Gave up on alien isolation for the same reason.
Alien Isolation gives you tools to avoid and fend off the xeno, though.
How much does this guy actually show up in the game? He’s really the only reason I haven’t played it yet…well that and DMC5…
In your scenario A run, you get to explore the police station, briefly go to a different environment and then return to the police station, shortly after you return you will have to activate Mr X, who then becomes a roaming entity in the police station walking around and searching for you, keeping the pressure up as you have to navigate the place once again and tie loose ends. Later in the game you get a third opportunity to return to the police station without Mr X for some optional goodies and just in case you missed something while having to avoid him.
In scenario B, Mr X becomes active during your first run through the station, but you also get that third opportunity to visit the station after Mr X is gone.
Outside of the police station, he just takes part in scripted events and he is no longer a roaming entity.
Thanks for this. This is more information than I could have hoped for 🙂
it makes the game dull then, his inclusion keeps up the flow and tempo of the game up.
He disrupts the tempo and the flow, that’s literally his purpose gameplay-wise. I happen to find the disruption to be tedious and ultimately boring.
Already played the game, but this actually makes me want to play everything again. Mr. X is boring as hell.
Ok the tyrant in remake is dumb but removing it completely is even worse.
I like the thomas the tank engine mod
With the show music its some nightmare fuel sh*t
seems like X gave it to the author too hard.
Awwwwwwwww SJW are too scared ? they lived in the bubble all their life and now Mr. X offended them?.. Play the game how it suppose to be played you snowflakes.
Wonder what SJW has to do with the simple fact you have to constantly run away from an apparently invincible enemy. Cut the hate old man.
Good, Now I can finally play this game.
There 3 things that will make not play a game:
1) Immortal enemies that chase you around
2) Long hard convoy missions with stupid AI
3) When they give you a dumb AI NPC to bring from point a to point
I understand people because adding difficulty adding unbeatable enemies is just dumb. Even is not rewarding to not kill zombies to save ammo when this a**hole is chasing you all the way.
