YouTube’s ‘VISION’ has shared a video, showcasing what a remaster of Counter-Strike 1.6 could like like in Unreal Engine 5. Alongside the recreated maps, the YouTuber has also implemented basic gameplay mechanics.
Now we all know that Valve is working on Counter-Strike 2.0 in Source2 Engine. However, CS2 will pack numerous gameplay changes, tweaks and improvements. In other words, you can’t look at it as a remaster of CS 1.6.
To be honest, this fan-made remake looks really cool. From what we can see, VISION has used the original textures in order to maintain the game’s original art style. And, in a really weird retro way, it looks great. Basically, this fan remaster reminded me of Quake RTX and Doom RTX.
Needless to say that this is a concept video, and nothing more. So no, you can’t download and play it. Still, this is something that a lot of CS fans will find interesting.
Speaking of Unreal Engine 5, I also suggest taking a look at these other fan remakes. For instance, we have these faithful remasters of Dark Souls and Dark Souls 3. Then we have the Zelda: Ocarina of Time Fan Remake. Let’s also not forget this amazing fan remake of STALKER. And lastly, you can find fan remakes of Death Stranding, ARK: Survival Ascended, Fallout 4, Resident Evil’s Spencer Mansion and Skyrim’s Whiterun. All of them are cool, so make sure to watch them.
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.
