This fan-made slice of Lord of the Rings in Unreal Engine 5 has left me hoping for a full game

In a welcome change to some of the rubbish on social media these days, my algorithm had presented me with a beautiful, photorealistic re-imagining of Lord Of The Rings' The Argonath scene, made in Unreal Engine 5. For a tranquil minute and a half, I was transported from my desk to a small boat on the River Anduin, as the two monumental statues made famous in Fellowship of the Ring watched over me. "[Unreal Engine] would handle it like a champ, but the challenges to releasing it be a good amount of project cleanup, some optimisation, and there are some areas that aren't fully built out for a 360 degree viewing experience, so I would need to go back in and finish building out those parts of the environment," he says.
