12 years after falling in love with the original Shadow of the Colossus, playing the PS4 remake brought that same rush of beauty, fear, and heartbreak I felt back on the PS2. Fumito Ueda and Team ICO’s classic adventure game has, for the most part, aged gracefully. Descending the steps of the temple, riding across the central field, stumbling upon the first Colossi, and ultimately striking it down was one of the most unforgettable moments in gaming history at the time, and remains just as poignant now.
Just to get this out of the way, the PS4 remake is visually rebuilt from the ground up, and absolutely gorgeous. Visually, it’s hard to imagine someone being able to tell that it’s based on a 2005 game unless they already knew that fact. The textures on the characters, environment, and Colossi are all incredibly-realized. Seriously, even the way Wander’s tunic danced in the wind held a mesmerizing quality to it.
