Now here is something that passed under my radar. A while back, Ostap Gordon recreated and shared a video of a Half-Life 2 Remake in UNIGINE 2 Engine.
Going into more details, Gordon has basically recreated some of the apartments of Half-Life 2 in UNIGINE 2 Engine. Moreover, he used some original sounds from Half-Life 2, as well as the Combine and Strider 3D models from Half-Life: Alyx.
In order to create these enviroments, the artist used Blender, Substance Painter, Quixel Megascans. And, in order to stay true to HL2’s spirits, the player can actually interact with a number of environmental objects.
Now as with most fan remakes, this Half-Life 2 Remake is not available for download. Gordon created this project for portfolio purposes. Still, this video can give us an idea of what a modern-day remake of Half-Life 2 could look like.
Speaking of Half-Life 2, I also suggest taking a look at these fan remakes of Valve’s classic shooter in Unreal Engine 5. Here is also Half Life 2’s Plaza in Unreal Engine 4.
Lastly, Half-Life 2 Overcharged Mod is coming to Steam later this month.
Enjoy!

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.
