Original Shadow Of The Colossus Director Would Like To Make Changes To Remake
Fumito Ueda, the director and lead designer for games like Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, and The Last Guardian, has officially submitted a proposal for changes to Sony upcoming PS4 remake of Shadow of the Colossus, but he doesn't know if these changes will be made.
Sony announced at E3 that Bluepoint Games is working on the remake of Shadow of the Colossus. The publisher also said that it wasn't planning on making any big changes to the game and that Fumito Ueda wasn't involved in the project, but that hasn't stopped the creator from making some suggestions.
"Those things of the remake that I would like to change, I can't mention, because if I say one thing and in the final version that thing is not included, it's a problem," Ueda told Eurogamer.
The remake of Shadow of the Colossus is slated to release in 2018. In the meantime, Fumito Ueda is currently working on an unannounced project, which he hopes to finish "as quickly possible."

Our Take
Shadow of the Colossus is widely considered a masterpiece, but it does have a few flaws. This remake sounds like a good chance to make some updates to the game. We'd be curious to learn more about Ueda's list of suggested changes.
