The design type of Nintendo’s Zelda sequence has at all times been considerably cartoony, with some titles within the sequence being extra cartoony than others. While it won’t sport probably the most real looking graphics, there’s a sure appeal to the design of Zelda video games which have at all times managed to maintain the sport lighthearted and enjoyable.

According to its creator, “As a fan who grew up with the legendary Zelda Ocarina of Time, I always wanted to see what the environments could look like with today’s technologies such as 4K resolution and DLSS but also the new features of Unreal Engine 5 like the real time global illumination Lumen and the powerful Nanite allowing me to work with film quality assets. The first episode of this series is dedicated to Kakariko village where I wanted to recreate and show my vision of the village with a next gen look and feel.”
