See how the legendary title has evolved from PS2 to PS3 to PS4. Out February 6.
Though we have repeatedly confirmed that Shadow of the Colossus on PS4 is a full, ground up remake of the all-time classic, it is a fact that is harder to communicate via text or stills. To make it more clear, we have created a comparison video, which you can watch above, that shows the amount of work that has gone into this project to fully leverage the horsepower of modern gaming consoles.
For the first time, we are also happy to confirm that PlayStation 4 Pro users will benefit from two play options:
- Cinematic, which emphasizes image quality, and for owners of compatible 4K HDR displays, boasts a beautiful dynamic 4K image targeting 30 fps
- Performance, which delivers an extremely fluid frame rate targeting 60 fps
Shadow of the Colossus has never looked this good, or moved with this much fluidity. To give you more information about the PS4 Pro enhancements, check out this video feature:
Lastly, we are also proud to reveal a Special Edition release, which will include the following bonus items: Steelbook Collector’s Case with outer sleeve, Artist Postcards, Printed Manual, In-game Digital Extras (Ancient Bow, Cloak of Fate, “Spotted Steed” Agro skin), Two Custom PS4 Themes, Colossi Avatar Set for PS4, Physical World Map, and Colossi Stickers.
Shadow of the Colossus is as much a prized part of our library as we hope it is yours, and so we wanted to make something special for you, its fans. The Special Edition will also be available on February 6th with an MSRP of $49.99.
Bluepoint Games is an exceptional developer with extreme quality targets – I really appreciate their technical achievements and pedigree (not surprising considering they have some of the key people behind Metroid Prime). Just look at what they achieved with the Uncharted Collection and compare it to a lot of other remasters/remakes. This project is in safe hands and I can’t wait to see what the studio does next (Demon’s Souls remake perhaps?). I’m thrilled to hear that PS4 Pro owners can play this game at a higher frame rate – choice is always a great thing!(-:
Xbox One X could probably handle 4K-HRD at 60 fps… just sayin’…
I’m pretty sure this game will look great in Xbox, via YouTube ;)
I’m pretty sure it can’t handle exclusives thought. just sayin’…
“ One thing is proved for certain, it’s incredibly difficult for games to run 4K at 60 FPS. As a consequence, we’re likely to see graphically demanding games use dynamic resolution or checkboarding techniques to achieve higher resolutions, as is the case with the PlayStation 4 Pro. Not every game will run full native 4K, and fewer games will do so at 60 FPS.“
Not according to Digitial Foundry, you know,the actual experts, and not those who like to make up imaginary stuff.
That time your trolling is so low-level it doesn’t even make any sense…
If they were aiming for 4K 60fps then they could here too. If you read, this was made from the ground up, not a port. Quantum Break isn’t 4K 60 on the X Box One X and that’s an exclusive as well
4K 60fps highly doubtful but I’m sure it’ll be close to 4K. It’ll def do better performance than the Pro for sure.
Cool story but the One X has a garbage CPU it has PUBG locked at 30fps when Core i5 PCs run it at 100fps.
PS4 Pro 4k resolution? 1440p I guess. Dynamic 4k*…true 4K is 2160p.
