Content is frequently removed from video games during development for a variety of reasons.

Perhaps the content doesn’t fit the final vision of the game. Perhaps the project has gone over budget. Or perhaps the developer simply can’t figure out how to seamlessly integrate it with the rest of the game.

Despite content being left on the cutting room floor, many files end up being left inside the game installations for modders to find later on.

We’ve picked out some of the best mods which aim to restore this cut content for PC users to use in their games. Let’s dive in.
