Here’s How A Silent Hill Remake Running on Unreal Engine 5 Would Look

From GameWatcher: "Codeless Studio has shared footage of its fan-made Silent Hill remake, showcasing what a modern take on the classic horror title using Unreal Engine 5 would look like.

The video, which you can watch below, starts off by panning to a street covered in thick fog, before a character – likely protagonist Harry Mason – walks into view. The first chunk of the Silent Hill remake footage locks its perspective to a third-person camera sitting behind the character, as he walks through the environment."

Sure you don't mean looks crap lol. Not sure what was impressive about that, unreal engine can do much better than that by a long long way.

Hopefully it wouldn't have all that jank. This video convinced me static cameras are best left in the garbage bin of history.

[bensonador]

Well, yeah. There are very few environments where it is used well.

Don't tease me with this, lol

[TricksterArrow]

Looks good!

[gleepot]

PS2 silent hill 2 fog better.

Why don’t Konami does a Remake of the first 3 silent hills?

[Gamer79]

Could look, not would look.

Not going to lie this looks awful. This is why a 1 to 1 remake of older titles does not always work. You need proper art direction that captures the original feel but is completely new, like the RE 1 and 2 remakes

Unreal 5? I could have coded this on my spectrum

Just goes to show how important quality animation is to making a game look convincing. So many indie PC titles have great looking visuals until the character starts to walk or speak and then reveal themselves as PS2 level.

Now, how would it look in VR that would give RE7 a run for its money?

The enemies chasing you would be epic as well as seeing Pyramid Head up close. Not really. I'd be running. Lol. And the nurses. Oh the nurses. Walking through that like the movie. Insanity.

About as bad as Doctor Who and the Weeping Angel Statues. With eye tracking in VR, lol.. DON'T LOOK AWAY. They'll pop up right in front of you.

[FTLmaster]

Looks awesome! Makes me pine for a proper remake...

[Killer2020UK]

With clarity it's lost a great deal of its charm.

[Gatsu]

Looks so amazing!!!
