Unreal Engine 5 continues to show us that it is certainly on its way to becoming one of the most important engines in this generation of consoles, if not the most important. However, in the absence of it spreading among commercial games, we can enjoy it through developer creations like the one we bring you today.
the youtube user AXCEL has recreated World of Warcraft in Unreal Engine 5, with truly breathtaking results. Specifically, AXCEL has recreated the iconic entrance of Orgrimmar, city of the Orcs. You can see for yourself below.
The stars have aligned for us to finally see World of Warcraft on Xbox
The results of this video are really striking, and only lead us to imagine what companies like The Coalitionwho have mastered the Unreal Engine with the Gears of War saga, and are currently studying the new engine in detail.

It’s worth noting that, with the acquisition of Activision Blizzard, World of Warcraft is now owned by Microsoft, so it could be only a matter of time before we get to experience Blizzard’s massively multiplayer online RPG on our Xbox consoles. However, profound changes would have to be made to the control, which is intended to be played only with keyboard + mouse. Despite everything, other games of the genre, such as Final Fantasy XIV, have reached consoles, so adaptation is possible.
