I’m going to agree with SageHunter.
But let me propose a question for you: why do you want to remake this specific game? Is there something special about the gameplay that you want to replicate? Is there some flaw to it that you feel needs updating?
Rather than remake the whole game, I would suggest you remake a portion of it. Like, just the core gameplay, maybe a level or two, just for the purpose of getting used to how Unreal handles. This way you won’t be starting from scratch, but will have a basic idea of what you want to achieve with the engine. Then, when you’re done, you’ll be able to use what you’ve learned to make a game that’s completely original.
