You might like Ciri as she is inThe Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, but how would the sword-fighting heroine fare in a more modern setting? Specifically, holding a shotgun as she’s chased through gloomy corridors by Mr. X?
Yes, you’re able to play as Cirilla Fiona Elen Riannon in Capcom’sResident Evil 2 Remakethanks to a mod fromawimosawhich is available to download and install forPC users here. The character model replaces Claire and also replaces the combat knives with Ciri’s sword, Zireael to further add to the crossover immersion.
At current, it’s known that Ciri’s face can look a bit odd inResident Evil 2 Remake,but work is being done to rectify this as well as making more animations work for her face. Also, if holding the combat knives (or Ciri’s sword with the mod) the sword itself remains strapped to her body. You can see an example of how she looks in the game below.
According to mod creator awimosa, CD Projekt Red has allowed the creation of the mod which can be installed using a mod manager. The screenshots available on the modifications page show Ciri in both cutscenes and in-game environments. Ciri herself seems to fit right into the atmospherical world ofResident Evil 2 Remake.
We’ve seen other mods forResident Evil 2 Remakesuch as introducing the youngEllie fromThe Last of Usinto Racoon City. We’ve also seenNieR: Automata’s2Bwandering the haunting grounds. There are bundles of other mods too, such as this humorous mod that replaces Mr. X’s frightening physique with a large scale version ofHouse House’sUntitled Goose GameGoose.Now, imagine Ciri running away from that.
