Gamespot had the chance to play the upcoming game for half an hour and the publication talked about what the remake of "Shadow of the Colossus" is like.
According to the gaming website, the PS4 version isn't a remake of the PlayStation 3 version, but something new. It was also noted how much detail has been put into this game; from the leaves to the water and scenery itself, everything looks stunning.
Aside from the wonderful graphics, one of the things that were also brought up was the familiarity. According to Gamespot, despite the new changes, it still feels very much like the old game and some of the problems from the PS2 and PS3 versions carry on into the PS4 version as well.
"Shadow of the Colossus" has players traveling through a lonely world, they must engage in a series of boss battles that make up most of the game's combat.
