Grasshopper Manufacture has announced that Shadows of the Damned: Hella Remastered will launch this year for PS4, PS5, PC, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S. A playable demo is currently available at PAX East 2024, where attendees can go hands-on with the title until March 24th.
Available to wishlist on Steam, the Xbox Store and PlayStation Store, the title is a remaster of Grasshopper’s 2011 cult-classic shooter. It sees demon hunter Garcia Hotspur and Johnson traversing the underworld to save Paula, his lover. Written by Goichi Suda and produced by Shinji Mikami, players fight through hordes of demons, using the light to exploit their weaknesses.
Of course, given the creative minds involved, there are all sorts of other mechanics, including side-scrolling levels. Grasshopper hasn’t revealed what kind of improvements fans can expect from the remaster, though it should support 4K/60 FPS on current-gen platforms. Stay tuned for more details, and in the meantime, check out our review of the Xbox 360 version here.
