In the past few months, several developers attempted to recreate The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time with modern visuals using the power of Unreal Engine 5, but never before has someone attempted to do so using anime aesthetics inspired by Studio Ghibli.
A few hours ago, RwanLink shared a short teaser of a project their currently developing, an animated short film powered by Unreal Engine 5, which will celebrate the 25th anniversary of what is one of the best games ever released. This project, which looks amazing, shows how the new version of the game development by Epic will provide developers with tools to create extremely diverse-looking video games.

As mentioned above, there are a few The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake projects around that allow players to experience some of the game's most iconic locations in new ways. Among them, the most interesting is the one developed by CryZENx, which is available in two different versions, one powered by Unreal Engine 4 and one by Unreal Engine 5. While a full fan-made remake seems unlikely, given the size of the game and how Nintendo usually cracks down on these projects, the ones available right now are more than enough to tide players over until an official remake is eventually released.
