As of 29 October 2026 I have not found an EA announcement of a remaster, a remake, or a native PS5 or Switch edition. That is a search result, not a promise that EA never will. Two independent projects are easy to confuse with an official release: a UE5 demo and an RTX Remix preview.

Hi-Tech Mail.ru's browser story says outright that EA never shipped a remaster. 3DNews on 5 October 2026 and HobbyConsolas on 18 May 2026 both describe the UE5 work without calling it an EA product. Two outlets plus the absence of a store page is as far as a negative claim should go.

EA remaster / remake	No announcement found	Mail.ru; no Steam or GOG listing
UE5 project TUFU	Stage 4 footage posted 4 Oct 2026. A later demo was still being fixed. No release date.	3DNews, HobbyConsolas, the video
RTX Remix preview	Creator update 0.5 preview: video dated 15 Jun 2026 UTC (14 Jun at -07:00). This is not the NVIDIA runtime version or an EA edition.	YouTube metadata; separate from Ekozmaster's legacy runtime recipe
Browser ports	Playable hosts, not a remaster	See the browser page

Titles that are easy to misread

A video titled like a remaster is often a mod guide. Redux is a texture pack. The 2012 Most Wanted reboot is a different game. None of those is an EA Underground 2 remaster. The UE5 demo can also disappear; I have no commitment from its makers, only the articles.

Questions

Is TUFU released?

Not as a finished game in the October 2026 coverage. There is Stage 4 footage and talk of another demo.

Is the browser port the remaster?

No. It is a way to launch the 2004 game. Graphics are the original game's, plus whatever the port changes.
