Shadow of the Colossus Remake Devs Tease PS5 Game

The team behind the remake of iconic PlayStation classic Shadow of the Colossus is teasing their next project, which is making its way to the PlayStation 5.

Earlier this year, Bluepoint Games raised eyebrows when its president, Marco Thrush, mentioned its next game would be for the PS5. At the time, Thrush said to WIRED: “We’re working on a big one right now. I’ll let you figure out the rest.”

The internet took the quote and ran for the hills with it, with the rumour mill hoping that the mysterious title is none other than a remake of Demon’s Souls.

With Demon’s Souls being one of the best games of its generation, players are eagerly awaiting some sort of confirmation that this is what Thrush is referring to.

Now Thrush has opened up about the project once again, this time chatting with Segment Next.

“We originally remastered Shadow of the Colossus for the PS3 and then remade it for the PS4,” Thrush told the publication.

“It’s the only one we’ve touched twice and to date it is our greatest achievement, so it’s easy to say that is our personal favorite. However, there’s no question in our minds that our current project will become the achievement we’re most proud of.”

Unfortunately, the Bluepoint boss didn’t offer much more insight than that, though he did mention how the company has invested its time and money into remakes and remasters.

He went on to add: “Fortunately the Bluepoint Engine and toolset has been in development for many years. We have significantly invested in ways that allow our process of remastering or remaking games to be powerful and efficient. It is flexible and able to take advantage of any hardware.”

Whether or not the secret project really is FromSoftware’s Demon’s Souls remains to be seen, but hopefully we’ll hear more about it soon!
