Resident Evil 3 Mod Replaces Carlos With Nemesis as a Companion

[Aquaboy]

Those who are familiar with the modding community, will almost certainly be familiar with Nexus Mods, a website which houses a plethora of fan-made add-ons for a huge variety of games. Despite the fact that Nexus has angered some of its users when it changed certain policies recently, it's still one of the go-to places to get hold of custom mods for free. Even serious horror games like Resident Evil aren't safe from the community, as one fan does a model swap in the remake of the third game to make for a rather surreal experience.

Uploading the file earlier today, user PlayStar201 has modified Resident Evil 3 which replaces one character with another. More specifically, what they've done is swap out Carlos for the brutish Nemesis model. The images show Jill and other characters completely stone-faced to have the Tyrant creature battling alongside them as opposed to with them, making for a rather humorous mod.

While some mods aim to make Resident Evil 3 much more difficult, PlayStar201's contribution throws a little spanner in the works by making Jill and Nemesis companions throughout the game. The description on the mod page says that players will also get to control Nemesis, just as they would with Carlos, during the hospital/police department sections. However, the author does warn that Nemesis may only be "semi-playable" but that players who use the mod should be able to "work around this" to make the Tyrant/Carlos fully playable.

It doesn't say much about what will happen when players face off against one of Resident Evil's most infamous Tyrants and actually have to fight him, but it can be assumed that the rest of the game will play out as normal. Jill will take on the ever-evolving beast as she would throughout a normal playthrough, and scenes will be interspersed with her conversing with, and helping out, a much smaller Nemesis. There's also no word about whether the swapped out model will still have Carlos' voice, the thought of which is quite hilarious.

When the remake was first released, Resident Evil 3 changed quite a bit about the original characters. While Carlos has a new voice actor, and is given more play time, PlayStar201's mod goes that one step further by taking him out of the equation entirely, and at the same time, making it look like having Nemesis as a companion is the most natural thing in the world in this universe.

Resident Evil 3: Remake is available now on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
