Shadow of the Colossus (2011) Platforms and PC Availability

PlayStation 2 classic that never made it out of the Sony game system. An eerie and surreal tale about sacrifice and cruelty that the world contains.

Play as Wander -- young warrior that roams vast and hollow game universe that’s surrounded by sharp cliffs and endless water. He is on the mission to kill 16 gargantuan colossi all scattered around the game world.

Each colossus is a puzzle and can be killed only after solving it. At Wander’s disposal are his sword and bow that helps him climb the beasts. Each one requires the player to come up with a cunning strategy to topple each behemoth. The story is told in a very ascetic way and consists of only two in-game cutscenes. Nevertheless, it helps to build up the atmosphere mystery in the game epos.

Developers are no strangers in the dark, atmospheric games such as this: they also behind critically acclaimed ICO that also had been published on PlayStation 2.
