Ever since I played Shadow of the Colossus for the first time, I have dreamt of fighting more of these magical beasts. Many of us hardcore SOTC fans are aware that there were supposed to be more colossi than the 16 that are in the final game. At one point, there was a very distinct possibility that there was going to be 24. Unfortunately, those extra 8 had to be cut out of the game due to artistic constraints.

However, there is a fan project in the works that is attempting to make those 8 beta colossi a reality. Listen on to find out more...

    I also forgot to point out in the video that the team currently has 15 people working on it.
  • @MadDannyWest
    The passion people still hold for this game is astounding
  • @colinstacy2085
    Everyone: “omg I wish I could fight the beta colossi” These madlads: “fine... I’ll do it myself.”

    If we can fight Spider, Monkey, Roc, Phoenix, and Devil alone, I'd die. Have you seen Monkey's actual size?? He's HUGE!
  • I'm glad that there is interest in our fan project! I originally joined BtFl in its very infancy with my janky old Dam extension model, and in retrospect I can't believe the amount of progress that has been made! My hope is that I will soon be able to come out with some better quality models; currently I am at work remaking the Spider and Devil's lairs, both of which I was no longer satisfied with my older ones (in time I plan on also remaking other Colossi arenas!). Using a new technique my current work is much more of a match with Team Ico's "style" of modeling; so once I am finished it should hopefully be a close approximation of how these areas once looked! I am also tweaking Sirius' base model in preparation for texturing and animation rigging, so with any luck it will soon be functional! There is a lot of work ahead of us, but with the support of the wonderful SotC community behind us I'm absolutely confidant we will be able to make it a reality! (In addition there have been numerous new beta discoveries that have been made while probing SotC's inner code - just something you all might be interested in too!)

    Take a shot for every time I say 'umm' in the interview. XD
  • @LordFlaggy
    if this gets shut down by sony im renouncing pacifism, super hyped.
  • @JestAnAnimator
    Due to this video existing I decided to apply for animator for the colossi and actually got it! Excited to bring these big boys to you all
  • I just finished the PS4 remake last week, and 15 years later SotC still holds up as my favorite game of all time. I look forward to see this project completed!
  • A giant worm and spider, you had my curiosity but now you have my attention.
  • @georgelee5786
    for those who don't know ocelot got kicked out of the project

    Hey folk! Just keep note; before you actually message me, make sure to read the #open-positions channel on the Discord server so you can see what positions are open or closed.

    When you mentioned that you dreamt about new colossi, I couldn’t help but mention a colossi I dreamt about myself. Imagine a deep, long valley, with a temple door at the Corrie similar to that of the quadratus door. And when you step on a platform like the one at the phalanx fight, a massive alligator colossus crashes through the door. The alligator proceeds to chase you through the valley at a high pace, and you need to use Agro to outpace it. When it gets close it tries to snap it jaws at you, dealing massive damage and knocking you off Agro. I’m currently thinking of a way to damage it but currently it’s just fun too put the idea out there.

    Oh my god, this will be amazing. Here I am hyped beyond charts for the possibilty of new playable content for a game released 15 years ago. Shadow of the Colossus is beyond time. Thank you Ocelot and everyone working on this project and you Max, because there's no way I'd know about this if it weren't for your channel
  • I'm just out of 3D graphics school and I'm definitely applying to work on this. Shadow of the Colossus is without a doubt one the game that made me realize I wanted to work in the video game industry when I was a kid.
  • PSA: Just so everyone knows if you are getting to this video late like I did, ocelot has nothing to do with the current Beyond The Forbidden Lands project and is actively sabotaging it.
  • If they made another remake for the PS5 I would pay double. It’s in my top 3 favorite games of all time. It’s the vibe of the environment, the ambience, the score, the puzzle.. everything about it I love.

    This game has been on my hit-list for ages now
