After a long time and a long wait, the final release of the Resident Evil 4 HD Project is available to download now and it is a lengthy download.
Resident Evil 4 HD Project was started by a dedicated fan who continued to work on every single texture in the game, updating it to make it as authentic as possible to the source while replacing the old blurry textures with high-definition ones. It is a passion project of which we have rarely seen any examples in the industry.
After years of painstaking upgrades for almost every single texture in the game, the full version of the textures is available to download now. You need to own the game on PC first, obviously, and then you can download the texture pack to install them over the game files and essentially enjoy a remake of the game. Do keep in mind that it has a download size of 38 GB.
