YouTube’s ‘Leo Torres’ has shared a video, showcasing a real-life scale remake of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim’s Morthal in Unreal Engine 5.4. This video will give you a glimpse at what a modern-day remake of Skyrim could look like. So, let’s take a look at it.

For those who don’t know, “The Real Scale” Skyrim series is a project to show what Tamriel’s cities would look like if they were more realistic and true to the game’s lore. Torres has also recreated Markarth, Blackreach, Whiterun, Solitude, Winterhold, and Falkreath. They all look amazing. Therefore, be sure to check them out.

To remake Morthal, the artist used a mix of different models and custom-made parts. Torres made these custom parts using Blender and added textures with Mixer. The artist also used Nanite for all the models and plants, and Lumen for lighting and reflections.

Torres has rendered out the scene in Unreal Engine 5.4 on an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090. And, as you will see, the results are incredible. This is by far the best “fan” remake of Skyrim.

I also wonder whether The Elder Scrolls 6 will be able to match these visuals. TES6 will be using an upgraded version of the Creation Engine 2. And, as we saw in Starfield, it’s nowhere close to what we see here.

Lastly, Torres doesn’t plan to share these UE5 fan remakes with the public. He’s making them for his portfolio and to create cool fan videos about the Elder Scrolls story. Still, it would be interesting to see if an RTX 4090 graphics card could run these in real-time.

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 fantastic fan remake of STALKER that’s worth a look. Then there’s 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, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim’s Solitude, Grand Theft Auto 4, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, Fallout 4, Resident Evil 1, Skyrim’s Winterhold and Silent Hill 3’s Lakeside Amusement Park. There is also this Studio Ghibli stylized 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!
