Unreal Engine 4 being freely available has done wonderful things for older video game scenery.

YouTube’s Ioannis Papazis is known for his traditional and digital artwork. After a lengthy absence he returns having mastered a different sort of digital art (via Nintendo Insider — thanks Josh!)
Eventually we’ll have the entire game rendered in Unreal Engine 4. Then we’ll hand it over to the amateur programmers. Nobody tell Nintendo.
