I met Bob Wallace at Bluepoint - he gave me a 3D printed model of Cenobia (Boss #14) which I will never forget ; )

Beautiful. I think Blupoint Games made a great work adding small details, that don't mess with the original vision from Ueda and his team for the Colossi in the game.

[@undercoverboss543]

cant wait to play ir

[@christiansalazar8750]

Thank you to all the people that have worked on this project , can’t wait to play it next week

[@MrEyeAmSam]

It’s crazy cause the remastered graphics are what I thought the original game looked like when it came out. My mind is blown how good it looks now

[@kapilbusawah7169]

I really appreciate the work that has gone into this. I thank all the devs at BluePoint for their amazing product while respecting the wishes and direction of the original devs. The only thing that is really different is the skies and foliage. TBH the colour palet can be adjusted from the photomode and then bam! Back into 2005

[@alexanderjames9128]

After this... We need ICO to be remastered. Bringing the two games (ICO and Shadow of the Colossus) from the ps2 era to the ps4 era where they would both stand next to the last guardian.

[@waalex11]

Alexander James Better than the last guardian.

[@KeybladeMasterAndy]

Alexander James Remastered again, or remade like this?

[@fabrithenoir9275]

Alexander James you're right

[@couchgamingnews9379]

Alexander James every mans dream

[@ollieslovelyworld6330]

Alexander James yes!

[@Mortequinho]

Masterpiece.

[@happyfappy3613]

The love certainly comes through Mr. Wallace. The praise it has received is well deserved and I am certain that at the end of this generation, it will shine brightly as one the absolute best games within said generation. A testament to not only the brilliance that has been inherent to Shadow of The Colossus from since its debut on Playstation 2, thanks to Team Ico and Ueda San, but also a testament to the love and care you guys have put into this game, as well as the obvious talent you all possess. Thank you for this Masterpiece

[@bettergetdave]

I do appreciate your work and I will support it with a pre-order!

[@septillion2501]

Yeah people have been lusting after those 8 discarded Colussi since 2005. Come on Sony listen to the fan demand. Blue Point clearly know what they're doing, give them a shot to make something new.

[@ply159]

To bluepoint: be proud of what you've done, awesome. From a SoC ps2 fan!!

[@richardg.9587]

Please sony, creat more colossus and add on the game for the fans

[@richardg.9587]

Recreat full project of Fumito, add more colossus in dlc patchs over of history. I guess this is GOOD ideia !!! ;3

[@TheAlison1456]

Won't happen

[@richardg.9587]

marie dean we just want more colossus, is good idea. Add in dlc over of history.

Wow this is great. I’m actually learning Maya and Mudbox (because it’s free), and this is really inspiring to look at. I’ve always been interested in creature design and this feels like the gold standard 👌

Here waiting for the ps5 version with the new bosses

[@NomadColossus]

PS2 11,000 polygons vs PS4 61,000 polygons = 18% PS2 to PS4 ratio! I wonder if this is the same among all colossi?

[@MaxPayne-rd5wd]

That's just a retopology for the new model high res model done in zbrush.

[@ScrumpyWingnuts201]

Still waiting for the unused colossi to be made :)

We felt the love that is for sure! Great work and thanks to all the team who put effort rebuilding it! I can't wait for the new art book for the game :)

[@ezequiasluiz4349]

On Playstation 2 the game is better

[@thecode_red1825]

Just asking with curiosity, how do you modify an existing rigged 3d model And add higher amount of detail to it, will you have to re-skin the entire skeleton mesh or is there any procedures for that especially if you are using 3ds max or maya?

[@gamelord19]

Of course they add more item for time attack and more collectibles, but god forbid if they EVER wanted to add the missing 8 colossi as secret bosses or DLC. Nooooooo that would be a sin and a crime against humanity.

[@quyso_toc6334]

This game needs a sequel , there needs to be more colossus to exist and a new slayer.

[@gameoverhd5849]

The Getaway remake next please

This has furthered my interest in being a dev for SIE 😅

[@arakidarui]

the amount of love put in starting a project from scratch and having to be completely loyal to the original work is mesmerizing. i'm so glad to be a fan of a game and a corporation like this.

[@minilabyrinth]

cool to know they're using maya+zbrush just like I do

[@waalex11]

Did they get insight from the original creators I wonder?

[@3eeemeee]

guys im not sure about this game ,, help me out should u get it?

[@heyheyitsjae2475]

3eeemeee Yes. The original was a piece of gaming history which's only flaw for me was resolution (which even at the time was better than normal) This remake fixed those resolution problems, so it's so much better!

[@BrunoSXS]

Your remake made me buy a ps5 to play it... Mission accomplished, I guess? As someone that played this game for so long on my ps2 I must sail you guys made a wonderful remake

[@devong1838]

They keep showing footage from Celosia's battle while showcasing Cenobia's model...

[@sterlingsilver6578]

[@couchgamingnews9379]

This game needs more attention

[@dudealex3657]

bring it to pc too!!! who's with me???

[@kilroy987]

I liked knowing the triangle detail on the models. If he had said the colossus triangle count went from 10k to a million I might have freaked a little. 60k was frankly a lot smaller than I was expecting.

[@kauanhard]

Sony please put a more more top game for the PS Vita wanted to play a pugh or a fortnite would be cooler to play on PS Vita

[@kurtcobain1219]

Im hope shadow of the colossus can make shadow of the colossus 2

Dear PlayStation why not put movie in 3D at the PlayStation Store, why not take full advantage of the PlayStation VR's 3D capability's. Like movies in 3D and standard games with a regular 3D setting and a PS4 Pro Enhanced 3D setting. I love VR for giving the player a private 3D theater. PlayStation VR should be the place to go for all your gaming needs.

[@Nightmareisi22]

What did they use to make the colossus

[@recklesflam1ngo968]

we need a full behind the scenes damnit

[@sergim007]

Developer using windows from Microsoft 😂👌🏽

[@eduramos6861]

I made a sculpture of the Valus, many details i had to "imagine", because in the images of the old model, i could not see the details. I still want to make more Colossus in scale with Valus, I would love to see the new models in the smallest details!

[@volo7]

and this is what we all take for granted... i will never play another video game without appreciating the hard work and effort put into it from beginning to end.

I am not going to buy that, if the secret colossus isn't in there.

[@KratosRager]

Fabri 690128 let it go. It’s a graphics remake not a game remake. It looks amazing and it’s fine how it is.

[@fabrithenoir9275]

KratosRager They should put it in the game anyway

[@gaius5901]

Fabri 690128 there has never been a secret colossi. Dumbass. If you're talking about the 8 scrapped, it was for a good reason. If you're talking about the total 48, that was just a proposed number.

[@137cloud]
