Everything We Know About 2018's Most Mysterious Video Games

4. Shadow Of The Colossus Remake

Why didn't Sony make a bigger deal of the fact that Shadow of the Colossus - considered to be one of the best games ever made - was getting a remake when it broke the news at this year's E3?

A painfully short clip accompanied with a tentative release date was all we got to see, leaving questions regarding how extensive the remake would be and whether there was potential for additional content wholly unanswered.

Only now, following the conclusion of Paris Games Week, do we have a solid idea of just how much care and attention Bluepoint Games is pouring into the remake of Team ICO's classic to ensure it retains the illustrious gleam that saw it attract adoration back in 2005. Marvel at the remake's visual improvements for yourselves below.

As for all-new additions, GameSpot reports that nothing drastic has changed, though tweaked controls and a potential increase in overall gameplay speed are duly noted. The important takeaway is: this is the fantastical journey you remember from over a decade ago, only far, far prettier.
