admin

Developer Backporter has released RE-PAK 5.3, a tool that lets you extract and create PAK files for PC/PS4, in order to mod specific games.

What is RE-PAK for PS4

UI Based Tool that allows for Previewing (PC)Textures on the fly, Extracting Paks, and Creating PAKs AND modding other platforms(PS4).

In its current state, the tool supports modding of the following games:

  • Resident Evil 2
  • Resident Evil 3
  • Resident Evil Resistance
  • Resident Evil 7 Biohazard
  • Resident Evil Village
  • Devil May Cry 5
  • Monster Hunter Rise (Demo only?)

RE-PAK enables for example outfit mods for PS4 versions of Resident Evil games

How to Use Re-PAK to Mod PS4 Games

From the readme:

  • For PAK Creation you do need the original PAKs extracted from the platform you intend to create them for(PC => PC, PS4 => PS4) They Are Not Substitutable With Different Platform PAKS SO DO NOT TRY AND MIX THEM
  • Mods that replace DLC Outfits will not work on the PS4 from my testing, so make sure you read the mod page.
  • Example PAKs can be found in this repo, their credits will be inside the zip in a text document or posted below

Additionally, the author has published a tutorial video which can be found below:
