A few days ago, we informed you about a fan remake of Sonic Adventure 2 in Unreal Engine 5. And, as promised, a free demo of it has been released. So, if you are a Sonic fan, you should definitely download and try it.
For those unaware, Sonic Adventure 2 Redux is a ground-up reimagining of the 2001 classic in UE5. This fan remake comes with a branch of Velocity+. The Azure Framework will overhaul the physics, camera, controls, UI and much more. As its creator noted, this will provide a unique and brand new Unreal Engine 5 Sonic experience.
The demo lets you play City Escape and Metal Harbor. It also features two bosses. Those are Bigfoot and Shadow. Yep, you read that right. Shadow is in the remake.
This is one of the best fan remakes in UE5. This is exactly what a lot of Sonic fans have been asking all these years. And, since SEGA does not plan to remake Sonic Adventure 2, JeliLiam decided to do it himself. The end result is incredible. Not only does the remake improve the game’s graphics but it also retains the style of the original game. This is crazy good.
As I said, if you are a Sonic fan, you should download it right now. You can do so from this link.
Speaking of Unreal Engine 5, you should also check out the following fan projects. For instance, you can find some faithful remasters of Dark Souls and Dark Souls 3, which are super cool. A few months ago, we also shared an amazing remake of Toy Story 2. Then there’s this cool fan remake of Metal Gear Solid. Let’s also not forget this fantastic fan remake of STALKER that’s worth a look. Oh, and don’t miss the Grand Theft Auto 6 fan concept in UE5; it’s pretty impressive. In February 2024, we also shared fan remakes of Grand Theft Auto San Andreas and GTA 3, as well as an Uncharted fan game. We also have a fan remaster of Unreal Gold in UE5. You should also watch the full-on remake video for Final Fantasy 9, and this HD-2D Fan Remake for Xenogears.
Need for Speed Carbon and Tony Hawk’s Underground have also received some cool remakes. Oh, and there is a fan remake of Tomb Raider The Last Revelation, featuring Angelina Jolie and Christoph Walz. And if that’s not enough, there are fan remakes for Star Wars: Republic Commando, Death Stranding, Fallout 4, Grand Theft Auto 4, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, Fallout 4, Resident Evil 1, and Silent Hill 3’s Lakeside Amusement Park. There is also this Studio Ghibli-like teaser for Zelda: Ocarina of Time in Unreal Engine 5. So, lots of UE5 fan remakes, right? Well, since they’re all really cool, we suggest giving them a watch.
Enjoy and stay tuned for more!
