10 Bizarre Secret Alternate Costumes In Video Games

3. Resident Evil 2 - Tofu

From one iconic survival horror series to another, Resident Evil 2 has an incredible one. Technically it’s sort of an extra character and not an alternate costume but I’m pretty sure you won’t mind because I’m about to tell you about a walking block of tofu.

Apparently the tofu model was originally created to test the game’s hit boxes but at some point a glorious call was made to give it its own minigame, The Tofu Survivor. This is technically just Hunk’s The Fourth Survivor but with 100% more tofu. By completing the standard scenarios six times, Hunk is swapped out for the giant jiggly block armed with a knife.

It’s not a great defense system, but you probably only have to worry about the vegetarian zombies taking a nibble out of you.

For those dying to know, Tofu does indeed return in the Resident Evil 2 Remake as a secret bonus mode playable after defeating the story and Hunk’s mini-mode.
