The latest PlayStation 4 exclusive is a gorgeous throwback to a PlayStation 2 classic
The best game to launch in 2018 thus far is a game from over 10 years ago.
That game, of course, is "Shadow of the Colossus" on the PlayStation 4.
When the game originally launched on PlayStation 2 way back in 2005, it endeared a legion of fans. That dedicated fanbase enabled Sony to successfully re-release "Shadow of the Colossus" on the PlayStation 3 in 2011.
And now, in 2018, "Shadow of the Colossus" is back once again — this time on the PlayStation 4. The latest iteration is a fully re-built game, with stunning 4K/HDR visuals. But what do you actually do in the game? What is it about? Here's the deal!

"Shadow of the Colossus" is a gorgeous, third-person action game.
The game was originally developed by Sony's Japan Studio, led by a man named Fumito Ueda. It's part of a trilogy of games that are all exclusive to Sony's game consoles.
The other games in the trilogy from Ueda are "Ico" and "The Last Guardian." They're not direct sequels to each other, but share common themes. Each game is set in the third-person, in a land shrouded in mystery, often filled with puzzles.
The point of the game is straightforward: Hunt and kill sixteen "colossi."
Colossi are massive creatures, sometimes carrying equally massive weapons. The colossus above, for instance, carries a large club.
