Shadow of the Colossus Remake Gets TGS Trailer
The cult-classicΒ Shadow of the ColossusΒ began its life on the PlayStation 2 and bridged over to the PlayStation 3 later on. Next year, PlayStation 4 owners will get the chance to experience the game anew with the upcoming Shadow of the Colossus PS4 remake, which has shown off some new footage of the title in action.
During Sonyβs conference at Tokyo Game Show 2017, a new trailer was shown forΒ Shadow of the ColossusΒ on PS4, with the footage showing several of the gameβs iconic colossi as they rise (and fall) to the playerβs actions throughout the epic journey.
The only bad news is that the Shadow of the Colossus remake wonβt come with any new content. βIt is a remake,β Sonyβs Shuhei Yoshida told Famitsu. βThe game content is the same as the original version, but all the assets are being remade.β

A lot of people instantly fell in the love game as it was visually mindblowing for something of that time.Β The game won several awards for its audio, design, and overall quality.Β Shadow of the ColossusΒ is also referenced numerous times in debates regarding the art quality and emotional perspectives of video games, and is still regarded as one of theΒ greatest video games of all time.
Shadow of the Colossus PS4 remake will be coming to the PlayStation 4Β in 2018. For a closer look at the upcoming game, you can check out the brand new trailer from TGS 2017 at the top of this post.

Pokdepinion: The legendary game from the PS2-era is coming back and it looks superb. At the same time, canβt help but feel like we are stuck in an era of remakes and remasters. Oh well.
