CryZENx, best known for his Zelda: Ocarina of Time recreations in Unreal Engine 4, is currently working on a Diddy Kong Racing fan remake in Unreal Engine 4. And while there isn’t still any download link for it, below you can find its first screenshots.
While the genre may currently be an oversaturated one, it’s interesting to look back on how the Donkey Kong franchise even got a racer to begin with, and what stopped Nintendo from ever releasing more entries.
Man, this would be the perfect title to bring next to the Nintendo 64 lineup on Nintendo Switch Online. This game was so good back in the day.
This was better than Mario Kart 64 but far for me. I loved the different vehicles and adventure aspect.
Absolutely loved DKR. Mario Kart, as much as I love it, has yet to really capture the magic of DKR. Better in some ways, worse in others.
Diddy Kong Racing, a Nintendo 64 title turns 25. Here to indulge in nostalgia and remember some of the title's amazing features.
I was downright addicted to this game when I was younger. Even among the countless classics the N64 spawned. This is near the top of my list, for favorites. I just love the hub world mechanic, where you have to unlock collectables to open up new areas. Something so satisfying about that...
Freaking amazing game. I'm not into these games anymore but this is one I'd play again. Also Fzero and I can't remember the name but this car shooting games of pure destruction.
Tim Burton’s vision of Gotham brought to life by passionate fans.
They should have been made a batman game for the best batman movie. This looks amazing and now I must watch the movie.
Stop it, dreams aren't supposed to come true! Just waiting for the C&D to hit...
Beautiful, I hope to see Banjo Kazooie at some point.
Im still hoping that the people who created mario kart 8 will make a new Diddy Kong racing.
My eyes can't roll back far enough
I get people want updated graphics for some of their favorite games, but each time someone throws a game into UE3 or 4, it looks the exact same, and not that great. Always a dull, toy-like plastic texture to everything.
Some things just need to be left alone to how they once were.
