Grasshopper Manufacture·Released Oct 31, 2024·Single player
Shadows of the Damned, an action-adventure road trip through hell, has been remastered at last! Get ready for a story about rock, love, and just a little bit of demon slaying.
A 360 throwback that revels in its immaturity and ends up just as fun as it is profane.
Throw in the crisp texture work — blended with less impressive ones — and rock-solid performance with modern resolutions and frame rate, and you’ve got a winner.
A funny, goofy shooter that ultimately feels just as much of a missed opportunity as it did in 2010. Visual inconsistencies and frustrating mechanics aside, Shadows Of The Damned can still offer a good time for those looking for one, but it's a shame that this remaster doesn't do enough to polish Grasshopper's cult gem and make it palatable to modern audiences.
Shadows of the Damned: Hella Remastered will please returning fans and capture newbies after a 7/10, but it's also home to some awful misogyny.
