A little more than one week after the film&#8217;s premiere, Nexus Mods user D0ct0rSauce has unveiled a Bryan skin, a mod that allows players to keep the unfortunate courier&#8217;s horrific run through Raccoon City going in Resident Evil 2.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">While Abrams is the one delivering Bryan&#8217;s shrieks and screams throughout Resident Evil&#8217;s hour-and-a-half runtime, this fan-made version of the character isn&#8217;t quite as detailed. This is more like a PlayStation 1-inspired version of the character, breaking him down to just a few simple polygons as a replacement for Leon&#8217;s retro skin. You can see gameplay footage of the mod, featuring art created by X\/Twitter user @mindnumb_opus, below.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-theme=\"light\">\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\" lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">thanks to @mindnumb_opus &#8216; excellent 3D artwork, i&#8217;m excited to reveal a mod we&#8217;ve developed that makes bryan from the new resident evil movie playable in resident evil 2 remake!#ResidentEvil\u3164 #biohazard #bryanhodukavich #REBHFUN pic.twitter.com\/VrOs4r6SqY<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 dr. sauce (@realdoctorsauce) September 26, 2026<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-theme=\"light\">\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\" lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\/ shitty gameplay. but check out bryan \ud83d\ude00 pic.twitter.com\/SFkokWc0h2<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 bryan resident evil (@thcourier) September 27, 2026<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Resident Evil brought Bryan to theaters when it premiered September 18, 2026. Cregger&#8217;s latest horror flick managed to exceed expectations with a $108 million global debut. It&#8217;s an opening tally that earned its place as the biggest first weekend in franchise history just days after reviews cemented it as the highest-rated video game adaptation of all time.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The movie then continued its theatrical run in weekend two with an additional $50 million added to the pot. Its total now stands at more than $196.5 million, a number that far exceeds its reported budget of $75 million (via Variety).<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">IGN gave it an 8\/10 review. We said, &#8220;With a laser focus on putting its hero through the worst night of his life, Resident Evil is a simple and exciting survival horror story that benefits greatly from director Zach Cregger\u2019s sensibilities.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-theme=\"light\">\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\" lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">don\u2019t look at me as I repost this for the third time, I\u2019m so sorry\u2014 (2\/2) pic.twitter.com\/sAkxaveJKO<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Opus (@mindnumb_opus) September 11, 2026<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Resident Evil 2 players on PC can imagine Abrams&#8217; Bryan surviving the game&#8217;s take on the fall of Raccoon City thanks to D0ct0rSauce and @mindnumb_opus&#8217; work. While we wait to see what the modding community cooks up next, you can catch a glimpse of how Cregger used some creative tricks to bring the film&#8217;s most wicked creation to life. You can also check out the Resident Evil Requiem mod that added Resident Evil 4&#8217;s merchant to the game.<\/p>\n<section class=\"author-sign-off\" data-cy=\"author-sign-off\"><span class=\"stack jsx-59817748 jsx-1927875859\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"rounded jsx-444076027 jsx-4218469134 profile-thumb jsx-2141281959 aspect-ratio aspect-ratio-1-1\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Michael Cripe Avatar\" class=\"progressive-image profile-thumb-img jsx-249361588 jsx-2338608387 expand\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/imdbnews.ir\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/resident-evil-fans-have-already-modded-austin-abrams-character-from-the-movie-into-re2.jpg\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"stack jsx-2509706801 jsx-3630940851\"><span class=\"stack jsx-2959124702 jsx-702910195 author-sign-off-header\">Michael Cripe<\/p>\n<p>Freelance Writer<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"stack jsx-2509706801 jsx-1220387432\"><\/p>\n<div data-cy=\"author-sign-off-socials\" class=\"jsx-2877214176 author-sign-off-socials\"><button type=\"button\" aria-haspopup=\"listbox\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-label=\"View social links\" class=\"jsx-2877214176 socials-trigger\"><span title=\"X\" class=\"jsx-2877214176 social-icon-avatar\"><span class=\"ign-icon jsx-2877214176 jsx-2750866048 jsx-2788214270\" role=\"presentation\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-cy=\"jsx-2877214176\"><\/span><\/span><span title=\"Bluesky\" class=\"jsx-2877214176 social-icon-avatar\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"ign-icon jsx-2877214176 jsx-2750866048 jsx-2788214270\" role=\"presentation\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-cy=\"jsx-2877214176\" alt loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/kraken.ignimgs.com\/_next\/static\/media\/Bluesky.d8b4aa9b.svg?cors=0\"><\/span><\/button><\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"interface jsx-1132626198 sign-off-text\">\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Michael Cripe is a freelance writer with IGN.
