![]() The game does not yet have a release date. Prey for the Gods will be released on PC and Mac. So we’ll keep an eye on this one but for now it looks like it could be great fun. With Shadow of the Colossus‘ level designer Takeshi Asano having given the game his blessing a lawsuit doesn’t seem likely (for now at least) and while the game is clearly in the same vein as SoC, other parts might be totally different. However, while we’re in favour of the game being the SoC sequel that never was, others are worried that Prey for the Gods riffs off of the PlayStation-exclusive too much, with some even suggesting that No Matter could be sued. And, the game will also feature “questions that not even a God knows the answer to” so it sounds like Prey for the Gods will capture some of Shadow of the Colossus‘ emotional brilliance as well. No Matter seems to be aware of them as not only was the three-man team founded “with the simple goal to create colossal moments” but they describe Prey for the Gods as having “colossal dangers” too which is surely more than a coincidence. And, as her “only chance of survival is to destroy the very gods in” conquering the elements and handling these foes is going to be a tough task.Īs for the comparisons to Shadow of the Colossus these aren’t necessarily a bad thing. Our leading lady has only got the clothes on her back, says No Matter, along with her trusty bow and arrow and some mean climbing abilities. In Prey for the Gods, we’ll be playing as a “lone” yet currently unnamed hero who is on the “edge of a dying world” trying to find out why her world has plunged into a “never-ending winter”.

While little is known about the just announced game, it looks like it could occupy the space in our hearts where a Shadow of the Colossus sequel should be. Unfortunately, despite how universally loved the game is, the developer has never blessed us with a sequel.Ī game that could fill that void, however, is Prey for the Gods from indie developer No Matter. ![]() Praey for the Gods will be available on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.It’s hard to believe it but Shadow of the Colossus was released 10 years ago (almost to the day) it feels like just yesterday when we were playing through Team Ico’s beautiful adventure, taking on its gargantuan foes and bringing them down. No release date is currently available, but during its closed alpha period, No Matter Studios was aiming for a 2018 launch. Given how few games of the type exist, that's not a bad thing, and the snowy landscape certainly helps it stand out visually. Story elements seem to be minimal - at one point in the video, you can see cave drawings that give backstory - but the gameplay is clearly heavily inspired by Shadow of the Colossus. ![]() Praey of the Gods depicts a female protagonist trapped on a snow-covered island, who tracks and hunts down the massive creatures that roam it. The player will need to manage stamina to keep from getting exhausted, as spending too long in the cold or without food will slow you down - perhaps enough for the giants to catch up with you. The real difference, as seen in a new gameplay trailer (thanks IGN), is that you'll also need to worry about survival elements. But Praey clearly bears a much stronger resemblance to Shadow of the Colossus, right down to climbing through the hair of giant monsters. Last year, Praey for the Gods face a minor legal difficulty with Bethesda forcing it to drop the "Prey" from its name. Praey for the Gods's latest gameplay footage shows a Shadow of the Colossus clone where you need to worry about food and the elements.
