YouTube’s RwanLink has released an incredible video, showcasing what a next-gen version of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time could look like in Unreal Engine 5. This fan remake looks absolutely stunning, so be sure to watch it.
Now contrary to the previous Unreal Engine 5 Fan Tech Remake we shared last month, this one features some basic gameplay mechanics. In this video, RwanLink controls Link in order to explore the Kakariko Village.
This video showcases some of the new features of Unreal Engine 5. For instance, RwanLink used real-time global illumination Lumen and the powerful Nanite.
What’s also cool about this remake is that RwanLink has managed to keep the art style of the original game. Not only that, but this UE5 remake looks as good as most current-gen games. And, you should keep in mind that it was created by only one person.
Unfortunately, RwanLink has not released this project to the public. As such, you can’t download and experience it on your PC. Still, RwanLink plans to remake even other environments from this classic N64 game.
Lastly, Zelda fans should also take a look at this remake of The Legend of Zelda Wind Waker. And as always, you can also download CryZENx’s Ocarina of Time UE4 fan remake.
Enjoy!

What a faithful remake! It even runs at 20FPS just like the original.
hahaahhhaa
This is insane ..the beauty the emmersion every little detail..
It is something i envy for not being able to do it myself.
It also has some “Fable” atmosphere although its Zelda.
i bet any n64 game looks better in unreal engine 5. probably even unity.
cease and desist letter coming in any day now
“Zelda Ocarina of Time Next Gen”
Damned impressive graphics for a Nintendo GameCube then. /s
Needs more frames, but it does look good.
I made sure to downvote/dislike the video. Thanks for the article.
Nintendo needs to hire you ASAP…
I never understood the hysteria surrounding zelda games. Maybe I’m just too old. Whenever I see screencaps I see lots of pozz and g@y sh*t. I’m suspecting that the reason we have so many tr@nnies these days is this very game. zelda minted a generation of degnerates. poor fellas
I think that says a little bit more about the places you’re looking for screen caps…also you don’t sound too refined yourself there chap.
It looks awesome. The graphics and music are beautiful, but the camera keeps wobbling when Link is running. Also, I hope that Link can interact with everything in his environment in the real remake, as well it being the first Zelda game to be fully voiced over. I have high expectations for one of my FAVORITE games of all time.
Can we stop calling every little scene someone makes when practicing with Unreal a remake? This isn’t a remake. It’s not even an actual game. It’s just a scene.
Some games really don’t need a realistic factor added into the graphics. I’m seeing more and more of these showing up and it’s just getting boring and feels unfitting. I like some cartoon looks, and I like that non-realistic Zelda charm. Some games are great for realism, some aren’t. Just because we can make something look a certain way, doesn’t mean we should. See the same thing with people wanting Pokemon to look ultra-realistic, things don’t have to look realistic to look pleasing to the eye.
Qué asco me dan los juegos con gráficos ultra-realistas.
¿¿¿Dónde ha quedado la fantasía???
Made by only person isn’t exactly correct. I made those sword and shield models
