Review: Nostalgia seekers will be blown away by improvements, Curious first timers will love a Puzzle Platforming game with 16 bosses - This game is re-made not remastered. Most buying have already played so I'll start with why the Ps4 version is worth it. It is breathtakingly beautiful on the Ps4 Pro.So many times I busted out camera mode and made wallpapers for my Home Page without a colossus in sight. Seeing as taking in the world and noticing elements and clues that are solely visible is the vast majority of the game, its the best selling point. Travel can seem tedious and time wasting at first. But you soon learn the whole point of the travel is to explore the world on the way to each fight, increase health and stamina by finding rare lizards and fruit that make the upcoming battle easier, discover shrines to help you jump right back into the boss fight without the huge punish of long distance traveling again. Combined with the graphics and refined open world controls, I came to enjoy the ride through the complex landscape to reach each colossus. Camera takes some getting used to on the horse when using the sword as a compass but you can quickly learn to manage it. When you are in the actual fight the controls seem to tighten up and when its time to capitalize on a crucial moment, it has none of the issues the previous console versions had. Compared to say..AAA shooter titles that focus on near superhuman agility and fast paced reactions, The controls of this game might seem "poor" but truthfully I felt it was more of an adjustment to the limitations of Wander, who stumbles and trips and fumbles but gets the job done. I only had one poor control moment (that I can't honestly blame on a boss trying not to die) and that was reaching the third colossus on the plateau above the lake. Arrow aiming was also pretty solid, and had a realistic feel. Arrows were always on target, but not lasers. I never had an issue hitting a weak spot. Finally, The new game plus mode is fantastic. Those who want the Time Trials got them back and they are well done. A perfect run will leave you lauding at how much time you had on the clock. But forgives a single big error. Which I think is quite fair. The Items are all still there and done well. And it was so satisfying once I got Wander OP and every fight was an anticlimactic bloodbath after grinding the trials. If only Agro had autopilot too. Lastly, For those who never played and want a brief summary and hook. This is a beautiful platforming puzzle game disguised as action. Each boss has clever behaviors and patterns, Each boss fight has subtle brilliance in how you take them down. Also its basically 16 Boss fights, all ramping up as you go. The intro to the story before beginning the game and the very end are really the only story elements. But don't let that discourage you. Somehow, despite only like...15 to 30 minutes of true actual storytelling, You fear for your steed, you will feel for your beloved, and you will fight against that damn light forever to prove you are not what you seem and the ending will not be forgotten. Review: Art vs. Manga - For those who have never played this before let me be very clear so that you can make a sound decision about this purchase. - This is a remake of a PS 2 game from the early 2000s. Which basically means that it is the exact same game right down to its old school game mechanics. So you may notice that the boy, horse and camera angles might be a little hard to get used to at first. - This is a very simple game. The only adversaries to fight are the 16 colossi walking around the map. Every single battle basically consists of solving a puzzle in order to defeat them. The puzzle will usually consist of finding a way to disorient them, knock them down or finding ways to surprise them so that you can scale their massive bodies in order to find their weak points and attack them. There are no other enemies in this game. You travel to their locations, you defeat them, and then you do it all over again. As boring as that may sound to some, it is my personal opinion that it is actually quite fun! The world is visually stunning, so it's always like taking pleasant trips through the country. The battles themselves are challenging and always leave you with a great sense of accomplishment. - You might think that this is a very story-rich game due to the lack of gameplay depth, but you would again, be wrong. The story is incredibly simple and blunt, with very little dialogue. You get a basic understanding of why your character is come to this land and what his goals are in the very beginning and then you get right to your task. The bulk of the game's dialogue going forward is basically the voice in the sky dropping hints on what to do when you encounter the colossi. Despite this there is still a great sense of progression in the story each time you defeat one of the giants. Focus not on the story, but instead on what your feeling each time you progress. You will probably feel great accomplishment in the beginning and then this feeling may change to something completely different (not going to spoil anything here). The depth of this story is entirely in the emotional experience and it definitely runs deep. To sum it up this game is like the comparision of art vs. manga, with the game being art. The depth and meaning you find in this game is entirely up to you. But if you find it, I promise it will be a most profound experience. Give this classic a change and you might just find yourself playing it again and again years down the road. ## Features - Explore vast forbidden lands filled with haunting ruins on a quest to bring a girl back to life - Conquer an unforgettable menagerie of towering creatures, each presenting a uniquely crafted challenge to overcome - Take a breathtaking journey through ancient lands to seek out gigantic beasts - The beloved all time classic gets rebuilt from the ground up for PlayStation 4 system ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B071WPKD5P | | Best Sellers Rank | #7,411 in Video Games ( See Top 100 in Video Games ) #265 in PlayStation 4 Games | | Compatible Video Game Console Models | Sony PlayStation 4 | | Computer Platform | PlayStation 4 | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (3,100) | | Date First Available | January 31, 2017 | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00711719510512 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 2.4 ounces | | Item model number | 3002224 | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | Sony Computer Entertainment | | Product Dimensions | 0.6 x 5.3 x 6.6 inches; 2.4 ounces | | Publication Date | February 6, 2018 | | Rated | Teen | | Release date | February 6, 2018 | | Type of item | Video Game | | UPC | 711719510512 | ## Images ![Shadow of the Colossus - PlayStation 4 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81LcQaX+bfL.jpg) ![Shadow of the Colossus - PlayStation 4 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81+L2Q8X52L.jpg) ![Shadow of the Colossus - PlayStation 4 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81iwdRS8m+L.jpg) ![Shadow of the Colossus - PlayStation 4 - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/818KHOGBX7L.jpg) ![Shadow of the Colossus - PlayStation 4 - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81HIifr2B8L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Platform For Display, Edition** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Are you guys hyped!?!?!?!?!** A: It's like shut up and take my money guys Q.Q it's that awesome **Q: Is this a God of War III type remaster where the code is updated or a Crash Bandicoot type remaster where the code is all new?** A: Everything rebuilt, including code. New engine and assets. Considering it like Crash. However in no project will you much see complete code rewrites without incorporating legacy code where perfectly useful. But this is NOT just an HD upscale and asset swap. It’s a PS4 game. **Q: is this game in english** A: Actually the spoken in game language is a weird ancient language. English subtitles are present for the short conversations since its not dialogue heavy. **Q: Does anyone know why the Prime Pre-Order 20% discount is not showing for this item?** A: because you are past the pre-order period, you waited to long..! I am happy I got the special edition at the time I did it's going for over a $100-$120 being the norm still wonder if I should sell it and buy the standard edition ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nostalgia seekers will be blown away by improvements, Curious first timers will love a Puzzle Platforming game with 16 bosses *by R***T on July 6, 2018* This game is re-made not remastered.

With the power of the PS4 and being completely rebuilt from the ground up, the fields, mountains, structures and, of course, Colossi are all rendered in detail and beauty that the game deserved. The game was already one of the most beautiful for the PS2 and now it is one of the most beautiful for the PS4. Not to say that other games like Horizon Zero Dawn and others don't also look gorgeous, but SOTC had its own unique aesthetic that sets itself apart. Wander is fully detailed, no longer a collection of polygons, Argo never looked better, and the girl... what's her name... is even more angelic now... almost literally at the end. The gameplay is largely unchanged from the original, and in a way the fact it's unchanged makes it feel a tad dated. But it brings a huge amount of nostalgia that connects with the original, like how you shouldn't mess with the mechanics of nintendo classics like Super Mario Brothers. The story also flows exactly the same, with the same cutscenes, now a crap ton more beautiful and more complex thanks to modern computing power. I am reminded of how repetitive the gameplay is, as you take down colossus after colossus, with repetitive sequence of ending and restarting the process. But of course changing this formula would mean changing the story and whole experience. The tactics to taking down the colossi, as well as locations of fruit and lizards, remain the same. So although it's a brand new engine and totally redone textures and designs, it feels like the same old SOTC with an insane facelift. There are some bonuses, such as unlockable gallery items, including comparisons of the graphic of the original vs the 2018 version, which makes you appreciate all the work they put into this remake. There is also a fun photo mode, which is a nice side activity when you have such beautiful scenery. Overall highly recommended for fans of the original, and highly recommended for the uninitiated to experience for the first time. ## Frequently Bought Together - Shadow of the Colossus - PlayStation 4 - The Last Guardian - Playstation 4 - Bloodborne Hits - PlayStation 4 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.it/products/56341343-shadow-of-the-colossus-playstation-4](https://www.desertcart.it/products/56341343-shadow-of-the-colossus-playstation-4) --- *Product available on Desertcart Italy* *Store origin: IT* *Last updated: 2026-05-15*
