New Unreal Engine 5 The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Fan Remake Tech Demo Released

by · DSOGaming

The Legend of Zelda fans, here is something for you. YouTube’s ‘Taylor S. Ellis’ has released a new tech demo of his The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake in Unreal Engine 5.

In this tech demo, the artist has recreated the Kakariko Village. Taylor has used new assets for this tech demo and used most of the tech features of Unreal Engine 5. As such, this fan demo can give us an idea of what a modern remake of Zelda: Ocarina of Time could look like in Unreal Engine 5.

Now, contrary to CryZENx’s fan remake, this one only has the Kakariko Village. Moreover, it does not have any gameplay features. There aren’t any enemies to fight. You also won’t get to see Link. All you can do is explore the Kakariko Village.

So, make sure to temper your expectations. This isn’t a fully fledged remake. Instead, it only has one area from the game. The good news, though, is that you can download it for free. All you have to do is join Taylor’s Patreon as a free member. Then, you will be able to find the download link and get it.

If you don’t want to download it, you can find a video for it at the end of the article. This video goes into more detail about how the artist was able to create it. At the end of it, you can also find some in-game sequences from it. These perfectly showcase what this tech demo is all about. So, be sure to watch it if you are curious to see what Taylor has created.

Speaking of Unreal Engine 5, I recommend trying out these other free fan-made demos. You can grab a Superman UE5 Demo, a Halo 3: ODST Remake, and a Spider-Man UE5 Demo. There’s also a fan-made version of STALKER in Unreal Engine 5. If you love old-school FPS games, you should check out this remake of the classic FPS Blood in Epic’s engine. For Mario fans, we have this cool Super Mario Galaxy Tech Demo in Unreal Engine 5.

And that’s not all. There is a cool remake of Halo: Combat Evolved’s Halo level in UE5 that you can download. Or how about this free Attack on Titan game? Then we have the fan remakes for Dino Crisis 2 and MediEvil 2. Plus, there is an amazing fan remake of Sonic Adventure 2, called Sonic Adventure 2 Redux. Zelda fans can get this fan remake of Ocarina of Time. Oh, and let’s not forget the amazing ports of Skyrim and Oblivion.

Owners of high-end GPUs can also try these three tech demos. The first one features a Witcher-like environment. The second shows off a Rome Italian Town.  The third is the Venice Tech Demo we shared a few days ago. We also have a demo of King’s Field 2 in UE5, as well as a remake of Konami’s canceled PT. Finally, we have The Lord of the Rings: Conquest Reimagined in Unreal Engine 5, a remake of Flappy Bird, a demo for Need for Speed: Underground 2, and a Diablo 2 Remake Demo. They all look awesome, so be sure to give them a try.

Have fun!
