"Redesigned from the ground up with incredible detail while preserving the aesthetic of both games," the modders said, Nuevo Paraíso "meticulously" recreates every town, settlement, and camp to "capture the essence of Mexico, with new vegetation for each region, clean roads and trails, new locations, and immersive landscapes brought to life by the natural movements of its inhabitants as they go about their daily lives."

"The army patrols the borders, and in some places, secrets and remnants of the past remain," the description teases.
