The PS4 version of “SotC” comes with two play modes for PS4 Pro owners: cinematic and performance. Its overcoming those obstacles and learning how to beat these immense monsters that makes defeating the colossi so satisfying. At first that can be as easy as latching onto its fur, but as you progress through the game, you need to put more and more thought into figuring out how to find a colossus’ vital point.Įssentially, the colossi serve as moving puzzles that can also crush you, blast you with giant electrified orbs or suffocate you with poison gas. See, in order for Wander to take down a colossus, you need to figure out how to uncover its weak spot. And that’s the other reason “SotC” is so loved. Naturally, killing a colossus isn’t as simple as shimmying up its leg and poking it in the head. See that dam in the distance? You can go there. Grab onto a colossus and climb up its back and its fur will react properly as the beast tries to shake you off. You spend a lot of time looking at this fur, so it makes sense that Bluepoint put a good deal of work into ensuring that it looked and behaved as fur would in real life. The titular colossi are equally stunning with their enormous, lumbering bodies, stone-like armor and huge swaths of life-like fur. It’s not just the environments that are beautiful, though. Even smaller details like individual blades of grass sway in the wind as you ride past the Shrine of Worship. Streams running through the lush forests of another portion of the forbidden land are inviting enough to dive right into, while the geysers and discolored earth of another region look as inhospitable as a distant planet. The PS4, however, allowed Bluepoint to create a desert with undulating sand dunes and dust storms that cloud your vision, but don’t obscure the distant cliffs surrounding the forbidden land.
