Shadow of the Colossus’s 4K remake looks too good

I’ve just started playing the Shadow of the Colossus remake on PlayStation 4 Pro, and I’m worried that the game has lost some of its magic in the translation to its new ultra HD resolution.

Developer Bluepoint Games rebuilt the new version of Shadow of the Colossus from the ground up — it’s not just an enhanced port. And, technically speaking, it all looks stunning and cinematic. You can see what I mean in the video I captured at the top of this story. That is 4K footage of the game’s introductory 15 minutes. I’m curious about whether other people who played the original Shadow of the Colossus — or even the PS3 upgrade — will agree that something is missing in the remake.
