Team Ico’s work was the stuff of legend on the PlayStation 2. Ico was a landmark puzzle-adventure game and one of the best and boldest entries in that genre since Prince of Persia. The game was always rumored to have a successor named Wander – which wound up as Shadow of the Colossus, starring a character named Wander. His tale begins with a horse named Agro, a woman, and a shrine.

He rides into the shrine with her in tow on the horse and lays her onto a slab before being told by a spirit that he must defeat colossi in order to save her. Rebuilt from the ground up by Bluepoint Games and JAPAN Studio, SHADOW OF THE COLOSSUS on PlayStation 4 system introduces the awe of its unforgettable world and towering creatures to a new generation of gamers, while allowing long time fans to revisit the beloved masterpiece with unparalleled visual fidelity and improved performance. There isn’t much of a narrative, but this one goal is all Wander needs to set out on his task and embark on one of gaming’s most epic boss rushes. Shadow of the Colossus (SotC) has no regular enemies and is a large-scale boss rush from beginning to end. By lifting your sword high in the air, you can get a signal of light as to the rough location to go and then venture out to do battle.īeyond having to solve the riddles behind how to defeat them, you also have to search the world to find them.

This turns the game from exploration into a mixture of puzzle, platforming, and pure combat with some resource management thrown in for good measure. Beyond a life gauge, you also have to keep an eye on how much you’re exerting yourself. Gripping the sides or climbable parts of a colossi allows you to move up it – but at a cost.
