Emerald Coast - Unreal Engine 5 Fan Remake | Sonic Adventure 

DUE TO FEEDBACK AND HONESTLY AN OVERSIGHT ON MY PART I HAVE SINCE MADE THE SKY A DEEPER BLUE SCREENSHOTS: imgur.com/a/VPwBckP Thank you to everyone who pointed this out, it really ties it together better now, I wish I had recorded the video like this haha.

I think the main thing I’d change is some of the textures. Emerald Coast is supposed to be a resort, but you have things looking ages instead of upkept. For instance, the initial wooden walkway prior to the first loop looks like an old structure when in the original it had guard rails and looked nice. I think what I would have done is made a lot of it look like a resort while Sonic is actively using his speed to fling himself from island to island in ways that weren’t intended. I’d probably tuck small non-interactive docks onto any of the islands that had man-made fencing on it to show that normally people would take an hourly ferry or something to their own small semi-private island for sunbathing rather than zip directly from one to the other like Sonic is. The dock where the whale attacks Sonic would be a modern structure as well, but with visible damage and the gap being a broken section to indicate that the whale has been an issue in the area longer than just randomly deciding to harass Sonic specifically. Similarly, the bridge to the lighthouse would be a more recent bit of damage with a few things placed around to indicate that they’re about to start repairs. Maybe a badly-damaged staircase around the area you spring up to show that there was an intended route for normal people, it just got blown apart by whatever destroyed the bridge. (Maybe an extended cutscene showing Tails accidentally damaged it in his crash, and the only reason the plane survived that particular part of the impact was from the Chaos Emerald protecting it). Save the obviously overgrown setting as the hidden cove behind the lighthouse, showing that Sonic’s unusual route took him through an area that typical tourists don’t normally get to see, a small natural untouched oasis hidden away in the middle of the resort, before the last few islands return to the pattern of islands being actively used by tourists, and maybe add a few people standing around the outer edges of the final island looking over at the plane wreck, as though it only just happened and nobody’s worked up the courage yet to approach and see what happened. Basically try to play up the ambient storytelling of the area, and make the assorted islands make just slightly more sense beyond random structures that just happen to make a course for Sonic. Like the loops are still there, but people tend to build around them and they’re more of an odd natural structure that Sonic tends to utilize more than normal people.

Nice concept of a Sonic Adventure remake I like how people outside of video game studios are being experimental of making mods for certain games

Thank you for actually showing the level and not making it a speed run and skip sections, like every other modder. This is gorgeous work, although it feels a lot slower than the original. I can understand why, since this is a completely different engine. Overall, good work

impressive, and far more than we've gotten before, but it's missing the sega blue skies look

Ngl, this is very impressive. I’m currently using the normal version of the Infinity Engine to make a Sonic fan game. The problem with Infintiy+ is that I couldn’t find any previous versions of the engine and the new version is like 3.9 GB which is crazy when people have to add things like cutscenes to the fan game.

If this is what a sonic adventure remake would look like that'd be awesome!

This is great!! Hope your project grows!

This is, I kid you not, the best adaptation of Emerald Coast I've ever seen! Kudos man! I shed a singular man tear.

I love how sonic fans just assumed this guy was trying to replace Emerald Coast when they clearly made it just for fun Like, bros, chill. The original Emerald Coast ain't going anywhere

Man… looks gorgeous 💙

God I would kill for an Unreal Engine 5 remake of Sonic Adventure. I love the original, it's probably one of the best looking games for it's time and while the animations and voice acting are rough today and were rough then, the game still holds up well even now. A remake with all-new beautiful stunning graphics would definitely make me love this game even more! Hope to see this project get around to being finished, looks awesome!

this feels way more pleasing to look at then the original

Sometimes it's interesting to think, how SA developers would feel seeing this in the past... It would be crazy.

I think this looks stunning great job you should definitely continue making amazing content like this

This is gorgeous! Awesome job! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Man this is amazing! I wish I could play this! The scenery is too good!

God I love this so much! This is how I picture a Sonic Adventure remake!

Very interesting! Great work so far!

Bro, I can’t even recognize the level anymore from how realistic it is

I like it. This looks really good.

it looks amazing, with every little detail you tell you put a lot of effort into the game. Can’t wait to see what else you do in the future

This look amazing ❤

This is epic thx for making it cannot wait to see more sonic games on unreal engine

We really need a Remake since Sonic Adventure DX was a remaster to the Dreamcast version basically.

I instantly recognized all the areas the first seconds show xD Love it

Wow its awesome and amazing ❤ keep going bro ❤🔥👍

The major change I would make is simply to change Sonic's "arms to the back" animation to trigger sooner. Sonic looks to be going really slow when the animation is not happening. And remember, the animation would trigger more easily on the original Sonic Adventure.

This look super dope ,

Honestly, if it didnt have the exact level structure from SA1 and the music. It would be very hard to convince me it was supposed to be Emerald Coast. But then again, SA1 had a realistic graphic theme for the time. So I guess it makes sense. But still, it shows how Generations had the right idea of keeping levels semi-realistic.

Impressive work! The only issues I really have with it is the overall lighting and the color of the sand. The ocean is the only thing really keeping it from looking like a desert stage rather than a beach.

how are people still doing “THIS IS WHAT MARIO WILL LOOK LIKE IN 2013” videos in 2024 😭

Could use a bit more stylizing and polishing, but otherwise looks great.

This is dope!

Your work is impeccable! As a Sonictuber from Brazil, I've seen countless fan projects, but yours turned out to be extremely interesting, so congratulations! If you release a demo, I'd love to try it out! I have an RX 6750XT with a video card. Take care! 💙

This looks really cool :D

Sega hire this man

Fantastic!

Did Sonic learn the Rising Tackle from Terry Bogard? Cool! 💪​

Hey man, awesome video! Tring to make a sonic like game was wondering how you set up the camera, looks awesome just like in the games!

I’m blown away. Sad to see comments who want to go back to older generation visuals. Especially the Frontiers slander in graphics. I want my favorite games to continue to evolve, not go backwards. Sonic Frontiers is absolutely beautiful. I love how they went all out on the graphics and still kept iconic landmarks throughout the islands.

Zammmm amazing

this reminds me of kronos island fron sonic frontiers

looks good but WAYYY too much motion blur

this goes hard

Nah, this needs an oscar fr

The motion blur is so bad I can't see ANYTHING during the gameplay segments

Just imagine Twinkle Park redone in this style

Holy moly.

When it gets too real to tell apart game from reality, that’s when you know the graphics are too good for their own good

This would look amazing with the sonic dash or sonic speed battle model of movie sonic or a really realistic, accurate sonic movie model. Potentially what sonic 3 movie may look like?

Whenever Capcom feels like making money again, I hope they check this out first.

If the sky was more blue this would be perfect but a very good recreation

I would raise the camera a bit

IS THIS REAL LIFE

Map looks incredible but it’s too realistic. Assets need to be a bit more stylized as SA1 has that late 90s anime look to it. Other than that Lumen looks amazing

TEN OUT OF TEN

F***ing amazing.

Holy motion blur

Uou. Eu jogaria de novo se fosse assim. Saudades!!

Imagine if Sonic Adventure remake look like this, I'm maybe gonna spend my whole money on this game ngl

Its like what Sonic Boom was promised to be.

This is awesome i have no words!

Japanese voice of Sonic : the best one ever after the first English voice ever

I like how this looks I only got one problem Sonic’s movement just looks a bit off balance when he runs there is even a problem when he goes on springs but everything else is amazing!

Agora faltam os robôs e demais itens... da ora!!🤩

yo, frontiers 2 looks fire

This feels like of Sonic O6 tried to be what Sonic Adventure already was 😅😆🤭👌

If we EVER get adventure remakes, I really hope this is NOT what they will look like. This looks really well done and with tons of effort behind it tho, but not the best fit for sonic, more like uncharted. Cheers for the results, regardless, and much love

This will be Sonic Adventure graphics in 2012

He does look a bit slow. You could add some kind of boost that isn't over bearing like in Sonic Frontiers or increase his running speed.

Has no charm.

This looks amazing. I'd love to see Sonic Heroes in this style. Unfortunately Sega seems to have forgotten that game exists

That whale chase puts Sonic 06 to shame

the vegetation could use an upgrade.

It almost aged well.

a hint at the release of the remake game?

Sonic's RL Adventure

SEGA, hire this man!

you gotta re-render at a higher bitrate god damn 😭

• Sonic Adventure [ Remake ] (2015) • Sonic Adventure 2 [ Remake ] (2015)

game play part of the video feels somehow slower than sonic adventure

Better than sonic frontiers for graphic

Sonic: adventure REAL LIFE EDITION?

SEGA HIRE THIS MAN

This looks AMAZING!!! Take notes, SEGA!

Seriously wish Sonic Team switched over to Unreal Engine so we could get visuals like these, though I would want them to go with a more stylized art style than what’s presented here.

You need to work more on the jumps. They ain't high enough.

Why is this so hard for Sega

sega hire this man

Bro so the Unreal Engine leaks and said "NOT ON MY WATCH"

si sega llegara a hacer un remake del sonic adventure con el unreal engine 5 nos los cobra por 100 dolares minimo

reminds me more like Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey. Doesn’t feel like Sonic’s world.

What happened to its sauce?

send this video to sega pls

Sonic Adventure PS5 remake

sonic movie 3 leak:

I think its time HE2 is taken out of business...

This vido makes me so dizzy, the motion blur and no momentum in camera, oh god

Looks like a dreams game tbh
