A new mod has recently been released for Resident Evil 2 Remake, the remake of the second entry in the survival-horror series developed by Capcom now out on PC and consoles.

The new mod is called HDR For Everyone, and it improves lighting considerably, bringing a visual experience as close as possible to HDR even on displays that do not support it.

The Resident Evil 2 Remake is a respectful remake of the classic game which plays it a little too safe, according to our Nathan.

Resident Evil 2 is a polished, respectful remake of a survival horror classic that probably would have benefitted from a slightly more daring approach. Hints of a braver revamp are sprinkled throughout, but it doesn’t take the risks necessary to join the canon of truly great video game remakes. Make no mistake though, if you loved the original Resident Evil 2, you’ll likely love the remake, and new players who can tolerate a few old-school quirks ought to have a gruesome good time as well.
