The unexpected reveal of Shadow of the Colossus during PlayStation’s E3 2017 Media Showcase was a rare moment of true surprise and delight. Developed by Bluepoint Games and Japan Studio, Shadow of the Colossus looks to be a lovingly executed PS4 remaster of one of the most artistic, emotional, and celebrated games ever made.
Though specifics are scarce at present, we did get a first look at some impressive in-game footage from the announce trailer. Watch it at the top of this post.
What we saw points to a remaster worthy of this celebrated classic. The fact that Shadow of the Colossus remains so entrenched in the modern gaming discourse is a lasting monument to the game’s singular vision. If this reintroduction can introduce that wonder to a new generation of gamers, it’s a win for the medium as a whole.
What did you think? I’m hoping we’ll have more details on Shadow of the Colossus in the months ahead. Stay tuned!
