Filled with nostalgia, YouTuber and game developer ArcSin Jesse has decided to recreate one remarkable castle that appears in Pokemon Black and White. N's Castle is a special area, as it is the home of the mysterious character N, who is the leader of Team Plasma. The castle is located on the Giant Chasm, a crater in the Unova region.
N's Castle is a large, imposing structure with a unique design. It is made up of several towers, each connected by a bridge. The towers are decorated with intricate carvings and statues, and the walls are lined with stained glass windows. Inside the castle, there are several rooms filled with books, art, and other items. The castle is home to a variety of Pokemon, including some that are exclusive to the castle. These include the Legendary Pokemon Kyurem, as well as the powerful Dragon-type Zekrom.
ArcSin Jesse has recreated this iconic Pokemon Black and White location with the help of the powerful Unreal Engine 5 game engine and documented his steps in a YouTube video. He first started working on the playable character’s face, and bag physics. The YouTuber revealed that he struggled with creating movement animations, so he employed the assistance of one of his friends. After that, he went on to model N’s castle and recreate its distinctive interiors and rooms.
With the help of a screenshot from the original game, he also remodeled all of the floors and walls. The roof of the castle gave Jesse some problems since the roof cannot be seen in the original game. The YouTuber was determined to optimize his work so he added some sublevels and triggers, which allowed the game to run smoothly. Finally, ArcSin Jesse has also created some impressive cutscenes which nicely wrapped everything together, after a couple of weeks' work.
The reactions to the video were extremely positive with many people impressed by Jesse’s work. It was an excellent example of how creativity and hard work can be combined in order to produce something truly special.
With the help of Unreal Engine 5, gamers can recreate the detailed and immersive locations of their favorite areas from their most cherished video games, allowing them to experience a level of immersion that they have never seen before. One such gamer even managed to recreate the stunning landscapes of World of Warcraft in the powerful engine. It seems like a lot of gamers are excited to see how their beloved old games would look with modern graphics.
Pokemon Black and White are available for Nintendo DS.
