As an older, and increasingly jaded gamer, I'm having a hard time remembering when I've last been so excited over a release as this one. Riven is seemingly getting the gold-standard treatment with a ground-up remake that not only utilizes 3D (and VR) to give depth to the world but also adds new content while keeping the visuals near one-to-one.
My favorite part of Riven personally is the excellent soundtrack, I can't wait to hear it while wandering around and exploring this space all over again. Cheers, Lemmy!

They did a UE4 version in 2021. What does UE5 have over that?

They did? I assumed the last one was realMyst, which was made in Unity.

Edit: Wow. How did this fly under my radar? https://store.steampowered.com/app/1255560/Myst/

Yeah I didn't know about it until recently either. They don't advertise it, but then they don't really need to, since it's not really something people would get into these days, only existing fans will buy it.

Also there are so many different versions at this point, it's hard to keep them apart.
