Resident Evil 2 News

This Resident Evil 2 mod is a fully standalone prequel

If you've ever been curious about the circumstances leading up to Resident Evil 2, a new fangame is about just that. Marvin's Mod is a standalone prequel to the horror game that sheds a little light on Marvin Branagh, and Raccoon City just before the heroes turn up.

Made in the original Resident Evil 2, Marvin's Mod chronicles the hours of Lieutenant Marvin Branagh of the Raccoon Police Department's life leading into his arrival during Leon Kennedy's half of the survival game. In a release trailer, Branagh encounters all sorts of T-virus monsters, from regular zombies, to zombie dogs, and the licker. He's accompanied by Rita Phillips, an officer under his command who eventually gets to evacuate the police station during the 1998 outbreak, and a number of other side characters show up.

Aydan Watkins made the mod, reusing lot of the assets from Resident Evil 2 to the tell the story. Conveniently, you do not need to own any version of Resi 2 for this to run, you can just go to the official site, download Marvin's Mod, and experience some classic PlayStation-era Resident Evil for nothing. Watkins has a Patreon, so you can support their work if you dig it, and a Twitter, to let them know of any issues, or shower them with praise.

Humble Halloween sale offers spooky discounts on big games

Every game counts among the ranks of Halloween games now - at least judging by the number of Halloween events we've written about in the past handful of weeks - but if you still need more spooky games to play, there are a load of sales out there to help you stack your collection. The Epic Halloween sale is live, and you can hop in for the Humble Halloween Sale now, too.

It's not all horror games, either. You can grab remakes of Resident Evil 2 and 3 for half off, or RE7 at 67%, sure, but Capcom's also got games like Monster Hunter World available for 34% off, or Devil May Cry 5 at 20% off. If you want some gothic superhero action, the whole Batman: Arkham series is similarly on offer at 75% off, or you can get the Tomb Raider or Hitman games at big savings.

If you do want to get spooky, though, there are plenty of options. Perennial favourite Dying Light is on offer at 66% off, Dead by Daylight is 60% off (and its DLC is on discount, too), recent indie body horror monstrosity Carrion is 25% off, and even the ol', beloved Alan Wake is down to 75% off.
