Ocarina of Time remake teaser shows realistic, 'Unreal Engine' style

devJun 9, 202638536

Nintendo released a teaser for a remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time that presents a photorealistic Link with detailed skin, cloth, and hair textures. The footage pairs ray-traced lighting with richly textured environments such as Hyrule Field, producing visuals that resemble Unreal Engine fan remakes. The teaser did not include a release date or specify what engine or performance targets the remake will use. If Nintendo follows through with modern real-time rendering and ray tracing, the remake could reset expectations for how the company updates classic games for current-generation hardware.

finally! A zelda game for people who were pissed off about windwaker

It kind of reads as “synergy with the upcoming movie” in art direction and it’s not really what got me into Zelda as a series of games.

Going to spread the rumor that the only reason Ocarina of Time was approved for a remake was that somebody on the staff wanted uncomforably Unreal Engine realistic-y post-time skip Princess Ruto modeled out. And I mean I get ya, shout out, I'll see ya on the other side there brother

these companies not only seem unable to make new games but are also hellbent on destroying whatever legacy they have.

OOT is the best fantasy game ever made. While I love that younger audiences will have an easier entry point to a series so close to my heart I am so bored of unreal-engine-ass rehashes of old gems. We should have new things, we should have new cultural touchstones! Time is moving forward!!!!

Enjoying the notion that Nintendo might have an awkward era of Unreal engine realism

I am not really a fan of the more detailed/semi realistic style from this snippet, but I guess I will have to wait and let them cook lol Couldnt stop thinking about those youtube vids that are like "Mario in unreal engine"

Kingdom Hearts 4 looks a little weird with cartoonishly bright colors next to Unreal Engine realism, but I'm here for it. https://kotaku.com/kingdom-hearts-4-marries-square-enix-fantasy-with-unreal-engine-action-2000704405

I legitimately wasn't expecting this to take the "Zelda in Unreal Engine" approach that you see with fan works, we haven't seen pseudo-realism since Twilight Princess and I'm very curious how it's gonna play out
