Bluepoint Confirms Next Project Is a Another Remake

Shadow of the Colossus PS4 was a major hit, with the updated flooring many gamers with how well Bluepoint Games modernized the graphics for the current audience. Now the studio is starting a new project and it's another remake.

In a conversation with Digital Foundry, Bluepoint's president Marco Thrush was asked if the new art team members hired for Shadow of the Colossus would be used for an original game. Thrush stated:

“Well, we could but we’re doing another remake. This project served us as a great point of growing the art team to the point where we can take on a full triple-A game major scope of art content. So now our next step is, let’s improve the art pipeline, let’s improve the engine, let’s improve workflow for artists, let’s grow on the art side some more to handle our next project because it’s a bit bigger. And our next focus is, all right, let’s work on design and add new stuff to get to the next remake, because now that can be our sole focus of making sure that’s where we put the time and everybody else, they’re already at a level where we can perform.”

It's interesting to see that remakes are becoming much more in demand. Not only with Shadow of the Colossus but Crash Bandicoot. What the new remake could be is a mystery, maybe they plan to remake Ico?

Shadow of the Colossus is now available for PS4, PS3, and PS2.
