Your journey will begin by way of a cutscene in which you see that Jack the Ripper is preparing to perform a ritual upon himself after all of his ritualistic murders did not end up unlocking the mystical power he seeks.

And then, there’s the big one: content that was cut from the original game has now been added to Shadow Man: Remastered! That means not only new stages to play (Summer Camp, Florida – Day and Night, Salvage Yard, Mojave Desert – Day and Night -, and Asylum Station 2 – Experimentation Rooms – as well as new audio from original games composer Tim Haywood, but also new enemies, new weapons, and restored voiced dialogue. What are we getting for this new version of Shadow Man on PlayStation 4 – playable on PlayStation 5 by way of its backward compatibility – to earn it the Remastered in its name? Well, there’s support for 4K widescreen, dynamic shadow mapping, dynamic per-pixel lighting, antialiasing and additional post-process effects, higher density of particle effects, refined art, audio, and assets, refined gameplay experience, and HRD rendering. This is an excellent way to experience the game both for those of you who got a chance to take it for a spin back when it was released on the Nintendo 64, the original PlayStation, and the beloved Dreamcast. After giving us excellent new takes on Strife: Veteran Edition, as well as Powerslave Exhumed, this time around, Nightdive Studios is taking us on a trip back a bit over two decades to give Shadow Man a new chance to shine in a new console generation.

Shadow Man: Remastered from Nightdive Studios and Valiant Comics is a revamped take on the 1999 classic based on the Shadow Man comic book, now ready to go on PS4.
