Now here is something that has passed under my radar. A few months ago, YouTube’s ‘François Montagud’ shared a video, showcasing 5 minutes of gameplay from his fan remake of Doom 3 in Unreal Engine 5.

I previously covered this project in May 2025. For whatever reason, though, I missed this 5-minute gameplay video. And, since I’m a big fan of Doom 3, I had to share it with you. So, better late than never, I guess.

Going into more detail, this video showcases the Delta Sector. According to the artist, compared to the May 2025 build, this demo features performance improvements, enhanced visuals (including environment and lighting), and a blend of pre-calculated death animations with real-time physics for more dynamic reactions. We also get to see new demons, such as the Imp and the Mancubus, along with increased interactivity and environmental destruction.

Since this is a one-man project, you should temper your expectations. This does not look as good as a modern remake from a triple-A studio. There are also numerous placeholder graphics. Still, it’s somewhat cool to see Doom 3 in a non-id Software engine. At least in my opinion.

From what I know, the artist does not plan to release this fan remake demo to the public. This is made for portfolio purposes. Also, since it’s been five months since its release, we may not get another video for it, which kind of sucks, but hey. It is what it is.

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 Medal of Honor: Allied Assault. 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 remaster of Unreal Gold and a cool fan remake of Doom 3. You should also watch the full-on remake video for Final Fantasy 9, and this HD-2D Fan Remake for Xenogears. Moreover, here is a fantastic fan remake of The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask.

Need for Speed Carbon and Tony Hawk’s Underground also have some awesome fan remakes. There’s even a fan remake of Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation that features Angelina Jolie and Christoph Waltz. But that’s not all. Fans have also made 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. A former Infinity Ward and Wargaming artist has also remastered Half-Life 2’s train station intro in Unreal Engine 5. Let’s also not forget the upcoming fan remake of Resident Evil 3.5. Oh, and there’s a video showing MGS2’s iconic intro in UE5.

Enjoy!
