One such mod brings back a familiar face from the Resident Evil 2 modding community into the demo, with the hilarious footage that ensues signifying that the mods coming to the remake of the third game will be nothing short of spectacular. That’s right, Thomas the Tank Engine is back, and this time he’s replacing Nemesis, making the iconic talking train even deadlier than ever before.

Posted to Twitter by user @VenomDeathNinja, the footage begins by showing off the closing moments of the demo, where Jill usually puts out a nearby fire only for Nemesis to burst through the wall to her left as the game cuts to black. Instead, the video showcases the wall smashing open to reveal the giant face of Thomas the Tank Engine, with his upbeat theme music blaring in the background. From here, the footage cuts to Jill Valentine going toe to toe with the colossal talking train, as he uses Nemesis’ whip, charge attacks, debilitating roar, and leap maneuver to make Jill’s life an utter nightmare.
Clearly the game is going to find just as absurd a modding community as ever when it debuts early next month, with Thomas the Tank Engine being just the beginning of what Resident Evil’s large and frequently active community clearly has in store for the title. Alongside this mod, another has surfaced that sees every zombie on the demo’s map replaced with Nemesis, leading to utter carnage, while a third mod sees the user play as the Jill Valentine depicted in the 2002 remake of the first Resident Evil game.
Resident Evil 3 is undeniably shaping up to be another exceptional release for Capcom, who has been on the best run of its career in recent years. From the addition of the incredibly terrifying Nemesis to the revelation that the entire game can be beaten without firing a single bullet, it seems players are more excited than ever to jump back into the world of Resident Evil 3 when it launches in just over a week’s time.
Resident Evil 3 will release on April 3 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
