The Godzilla: Unleashed Overhaul Mod is a fan-made modding project for "Godzilla: Unleashed", created by GojiRex, with the goal of significantly overhauling the visual and sound scheme of the game, though it "requires ownership of the game to play". It was released in September 2017.

Features include:

  • Support for the use of GameCube controllers, as the original game's control was limited to the native Wii mote only despite fan protest.
  • Completely upscaled or recreated textures for "everything" in the game, including monsters and arenas. The textures are often brighter and higher-contrast than those in the original game.
    • London in particular has an entirely new sky dome that gives it a starry, space-inspired look.
  • Every monster from the original game has an upscaled/recreated/new texture, as well as an alternate texture or effect for their Critical Mass forms, in addition to further alternate skins based on a variety of sources.
    • Alternative skins include a skin for Godzilla 2000 based on the 2002 film Godzilla Against MechaGodzilla, with his classic charcoal gray and silver fin coloration, Gigan using his ingame model but his coloration from the 1973 film Godzilla vs. Megalon and a toy-inspired skin for Megagurius.
    • Some of these skins also suggest entirely "new" monsters, such as a version of Shin Godzilla replacing Godzilla 1954, DesGhidorah in the place of King Ghidorah, or Zone Fighter in Jet Jaguar's role, though these characters all function only as reskins.
  • Custom music and sounds have been added to the game, including a wide variety of classic Akira Ifukube themes from the films, and classic monster roars and sounds taken directly from the films, to create a more movie-like sound.

Two months before release, a version of the game was playable to attendees at G-Fest XXIV.

Though further versions were intended for the future, updates for the mod were discontinued the next year, as new models and animations could not be imported into the game successfully, and other additional features required advanced forms of modding such as hex-editing, which were too difficult to cumbersome.

As of June 2023 a continuation of this mod is undergoing constant development under "Godzilla Unleashed (Overhaul Revolution): Final Wars". Improving on nearly every aspect of the original mod by GojiRex, Developed by Digitzaki (Final Wars Developer) and VGF2615 (Revolution Developer).
