A Silent Hill 2 Remake modder has continued the tradition of turning a game's big bad into Thomas the Tank Engine, this time replacing Pyramid Head with the children's cartoon character.
The Pyramid the Tank Engine mod from ZombieAli is available to download on Nexus Mods and, as per the description, it simply "replaced Pyramid Head with Thomas the Tank Engine."
The pyramid head does remain, however, but comes across more like a bold fashion choice for Thomas as opposed to the focal point of a horrific monster. "As the mod prophecy once foretold, thou shalt always put Thomas into moddable games," ZombieAli said.
The trend seemingly began with The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim, when a modder replaced the mighty dragon Alduin with the mighty tank engine Thomas. It's been a thing ever since, with modders sticking Thomas into myriad games.
But the beloved children's cartoon character, originating from a TV show about talking trains who go on adventures and teach wholesome life lessons, has perhaps been most prominent in horror games. Thomas the Tank Engine has replaced the stalking xenomorph in Alien: Isolation, smashed through walls when replacing Mr X in Resident Evil 2, and even taken on the guise of Lady Dimitrescu in Resident Evil Villlage.
The Thomas the Tank engine mod is only one of many to hit the Silent Hill 2 Remake, with other mods removing things like hair sheen and the fog, and one even turning the game into Sunny Hills.
