Over the past few years, we have covered many versions of CryZENx’s Unreal Engine 5 fan remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Alas, it looks like the project has reached the end of its journey. A few days ago, CryZENx officially announced that development on the fan remake has come to an end. As a result, no further updates or new versions of it will be published.

The good news here is that all the previous demos of this project are available for download. And, in case you’re wondering, no. Nintendo did not send him a C&D letter.

The reason CryZENx decided to stop working on it is simple. Right now, an official remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is in development. So, according to him, there is no reason to spend any extra time on this fan remake.

In a way, CryZENx is one or two steps ahead of Nintendo. Instead of waiting for a potential C&D letter, he decided to end the project on his own terms. This will obviously disappoint a lot of PC Zelda fans. But hey, this is what usually happens with such projects.

As I said, all the previous demos are still available for download. So, it’s not like you can’t download and play them. However, CryZENx will not remake any other areas from the game.

You can find download links for all the previous demos on our site. Or, you can visit this link, which includes all of them. CryZENx has listed the demos in chronological order, meaning that you can get the best experience with them.

Right now, CryZENx is looking into remaking another game in Unreal Engine 5. The candidates right now are The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Minish Cap, Donkey Kong 64, MDK, Turok, or Sonic Adventure 2. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is leading the poll with 52%. So, this will most likely be the next game that CryZENx will remake.

CryZENx also plans to share the last video for Ocarina of Time soon. This video will have full gameplay of Chapter 2/3. This video will be the official goodbye for it.

So, there you have it. This is the end of an era. CryZENx has been working on the Ocarina of Time Remake for ten whole years. And, from the looks of it, he’ll be working on a remake of Twilight Princess for the next ten years.

Speaking of Unreal Engine 5, I recommend trying out these other free fan-made demos. You can grab a Superman UE5 Demo, a Halo 3: ODST Remake, and a Spider-Man UE5 Demo. There’s also a fan-made version of STALKER in Unreal Engine 5. If you love old-school FPS games, you should check out this remake of the classic FPS Blood in Epic’s engine. For Mario fans, we have this cool Super Mario Galaxy Tech Demo in Unreal Engine 5.

And that’s not all. There is a cool remake of Halo: Combat Evolved’s Halo level in UE5 that you can download. Or how about this free Attack on Titan game? Then we have the fan remakes for Dino Crisis 2, Super Mario Galaxy, and MediEvil 2. Plus, there is an amazing fan remake of Sonic Adventure 2, called Sonic Adventure 2 Redux. Oh, and let’s not forget the amazing ports of Skyrim and Oblivion.

Owners of high-end GPUs can also try these three tech demos. The first one features a Witcher-like environment. The second shows off a Rome Italian Town.  The third is the Venice Tech Demo we shared a few days ago. We also have a demo of King’s Field 2 in UE5, as well as a remake of Konami’s canceled PT. Finally, we have The Lord of the Rings: Conquest Reimagined in Unreal Engine 5, a remake of Flappy Bird, a demo for Need for Speed: Underground 2, and a Diablo 2 Remake Demo. They all look awesome, so be sure to give them a try.

Stay tuned for more!
