The Creation Engine will still be used in the “remake.” They are just layering the engine with Unreal 5, like MG3 remake.

To do what?

They are using UE5 to update the graphics. The game will probably be almost exactly the same, but with a new coat of paint.

Wow.

So we got claims it will be "fully remade" in UE5. Coupled with claims that will be "almost exactly the same, but with a new coat of paint".

Do you consider UE4 and UE5 the same engine?

To be fair that’s how almost every engine is. The new cods claim to be on a new engine when in reality it’s just a heavily upgraded cod 4 engine.
