Unreal Engine 5 Video Shows What a Silent Hill 3 Remake Could Look Like
A fan's video has shown what a Silent Hill 3 remake could look like if it were made in Unreal Engine 5. The powerful game engine is available to the public, and is often used for both brand new projects as well as demonstrating what a game like Silent Hill 3 could look like in modern times.
Fans of Silent Hill are eagerly awaiting further news on Bloober Team's Silent Hill 2 remake. The title was revealed back in 2022, but doesn't have a release date at this time. Players are anxious to see if the experience can be recreated well, but the third title in the series is also an excellent candidate for the remake treatment.

The video gives a close look at the entrance of the amusement park where protagonist Heather starts and ends the game. The detail and lighting in the video stand out, but the real highlight is when the demonstration shifts to the terrifying Otherworld.

The models here are quite detailed, as the artist tried to push Unreal Engine 5 as far as they could. While the level isn't being made available for download, EverLifeZach notes that despite recreating a small area, the project size rose to about 100GB.
