A fan of Valve\u2019s 2004 classic Half-Life 2<\/em><\/strong> has created the entire plaza from the game in Unreal Engine 4.<\/p>\n

An artist by the name of Ivan Fernandez created the entire plaza area where players can board the train station in City 17 at the beginning of Half-Life 2<\/a><\/em>, complete with all the little details. Ivan gives special thanks to fellow artist Jersongaming for HD decals to fill in some gaps. Ivan also used Quixel for some floor and wall surfaces, a service that hosts HD textures and other resources that has been used in games with incredibly rich environments like Metro Exodus<\/em>, Battlefield V<\/em>, Shadow of the Tomb Raider<\/em>, and even movies like Disney\u2019s live action remake of The Jungle Book<\/em>.<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t to be confused with a different remake of Half-Life 2<\/em>, known as Project 17<\/em><\/a>, which is a remake of the game using the engine and assets of VR game Half-Life: Alyx<\/em>. Ivan\u2019s remake is utilizing Unreal Engine 4. Coincidentally, both projects only have the goal of recreating the opening area of the game, including the train station.<\/p>\n
