Shadow of the Colossus (2018) on PC

Shadow of the Colossus is a console video game in the genre of action adventure, which was developed back in 2005 specifically for PS2 consoles. A fairly large popularity of the project and its interesting gameplay even by modern standards led to the fact that the developers released a remastered version for PS4 consoles.

The changes in the reissue affected not only the graphics, which came closer to modern action games – the gameplay was also somewhat redesigned, especially the control system, which became more convenient.

A team called Team Ico worked on the creation of the project.

Plot

Similar to the video game series Dark Souls, here the storyline and actions, as well as the motives of the characters remain unknown. Only part of their intentions and part of the history of the virtual world can be understood based on a few dialogues and hints.

The events unfold in some forbidden lands, and the main character becomes a warrior named Vander. Not so long ago, his beloved was sacrificed, and he is trying to find a way to bring her back from the world of the dead. To do this, the warrior must destroy all the colossi – powerful huge bosses who live in the forbidden lands.

Gameplay

Shadow of the Colossus is a unique action game with very interesting mechanics of opposing giants. Battles with them deserve special attention of gamers – the study of this aspect has led to the great popularity of the action movie.

Among the key gameplay features , it is necessary to highlight:

• open virtual world;
• colorfully staged battle scenes against giants – they are so huge that you can climb them to find vulnerabilities and win;
• the variety of bosses is huge – from flying creatures, to land and those who live underwater;
• limited arsenal – a full set of weapons can be obtained only after a complete passage;
• the death of the hero means the end of the game – everything will have to start
