Another bizarre Resident Evil 4 remake mod has caught players' attention, and this time, it turns Ashley into a tiny mouse known as "Moushley Graham." Since the remake came out in March, many modders seem to be having fun with changing Ashley and Leon's appearances, with one of the most recent featuring a creepy Regenerador character model.
Originally released in 2005 for the GameCube, Resident Evil 4 follows special agent Leon S. Kennedy as he travels to rural Spain to save the US president's daughter, Ashley Graham, from the clutches of an evil religious cult. Throughout the game, players are tasked to keep Ashley safe while fighting against infected villagers and terrifying bosses. Both the original Resident Evil 4 and its remake have received massive praise from players and critics alike for its exciting gameplay and storyline.
Many have already beaten and replayed Resident Evil 4 on higher difficulties, while others seem to be having fun with mods made by fellow players, like the Ratatouille mod made by cathroon. Uploaded on Nexus Mods, they created a hairstyle for Leon where a tiny mouse, which players affectionately call Moushley, is sitting on his head. While the mod didn't necessarily shrink Ashley's character model to become a mouse, cathroon said they wanted players to feel like Moushley had control over Leon just like Remy in Ratatouille. As of writing, the mod has been downloaded over 200 times and viewed over 7,600 times.
The Moushley Graham mod was inspired by Twitter user Agrimmora's doodle which reimagined Ashley as a cheese-loving mouse. Since then, many Resident Evil fans have created their own versions of Moushley, which have been uploaded on Twitter and Tumblr. Over on Nexus Mods, there were mostly positive comments on cathroon's mod, with many users thanking them for bringing the tiny rodent to life.
Resident Evil 4 may be a scary game for many players, but fan-made creations like this have added a fun and wholesome element to it, especially for those who are deeply invested in Leon and Ashley's friendship. It's a refreshing way to show appreciation to the Capcom title and also allows many players to express their creativity.
Resident Evil 4 is available on PC, PS4, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
