10. Pennywise
Pennywise the Clown from IT invades Raccoon City - RE2 Remake MOD

6. Thomas the Tank Engine
Resident Evil 2 Mr. X mod as Thomas The Tank Engine
In yet another Mr. X swap, this time we find the behemoth being replaced with none other than the children's cartoon Thomas the Tank Engine.

To some though, the very sight of this may be even more fear-inducing than anything Umbrella has cooking in their labs.
- Laugh out loud watching this energetic engine stalk you
- Feel the joy of unloading ammunition into this irritating character
- Feel less stress exploring the monster-filled police station and city

3. X No More
X no more - Resident Evil 2 Remake Mod Spotlight
Simply replacing Mr. X with a killer clown or friendly tank engine doesn't make him any less deadly, so why not take him out of the equation altogether?

There's still plenty of other creatures to lay waste to as well.
