A fan-made trailer demonstrates what the newly announced Resident Evil 4 Remake could — and perhaps should — look like in Unreal Engine 5. Since its release in 2020, several developers are already utilizing Unreal Engine 5 for their newest projects, experimenting with the new technical capabilities and realism it allows for.
