Chris, Oscar Barrovecchio 3D and Residence of Evil have shared videos showing Half-Life, Return to Castle Wolfenstein and Resident Evil Remake in Unreal Engine 4. Therefore, and instead of flooding the frontpage, we’ve decided to share all three of them in one single article.
Let’s start with Half-Life in Unreal Engine 4 which is the simplest project of them. This small video shows a scene from the chapter “On a rail” from Half-Life in UE4. Most of the items related to Half-Life are made from scratch by Oscar Barrovecchio 3D, and the props are from the Unreal market.
On the other hand, Chris is currently remaking the first level from Return to Castle Wolfenstein in UE4. Unfortunately, we don’t know whether Chris will release a demo of it to the public. Still, this fan remake looks cool.
Lastly, MoonGlint has recreated a portion of the Resident Evil Remake in first-person with Unreal Engine 4. The following video shows the main player exploring the Spencer mansion in first-person mode. It looks absolutely amazing, though unfortunately there aren’t currently any plans for a public release.
Speaking of Unreal Engine 4 fan remakes, I also suggest taking a look at the Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness Fan Remake in Unreal Engine 4. There is also a Star Wars Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II Remake, an incredible Batman 1989 fan video, and a playable Mortal Kombat Mythologies Sub-Zero Fan Remake.

While he is a die-hard PC gamer, his gaming roots can be found on consoles. John loved – and still does – the 16-bit consoles, and considers SNES to be one of the best consoles. Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2. John has also written a higher degree thesis on the “The Evolution of PC graphics cards.”

That Wolfenstein music gets me everytime.
Disable motion blur and it’s going to look great.
I dig the HL and RtCW. Looks really nice. Of course that engine kind of changes the “feel” of HL in particular but Im impressed.
Half Life : I prefer to play Black Mesa, and it looks great already.
RTCW : RealRCTW (on Steam now) looks great already. OK, lighting is better in this demo. It would be nice if it was possible to “update” RealRCTW to Unreal Engine.
Resident Evil : OK, I admit, I would love to play this one in first-person. But I never liked the very dark atmosphere of the remake, which this demo seems to be based on. A HD version of the very first Resident Evil, in first-person, would be very very cool, though.
Please please please let me download some of these!?! I don’t care if they’re done or not, or just half a level.
I just want to feel the sensation of crushing Nazis once again in RTCW!
Black Mesa’s remake was epic and available on steam now.
