Shadow Man Remastered
Unlike the highly anticipated Gotham Knights, this one may not already be on your radar.
Shadow Man Remastered is a remastered version of the Nintendo 64 title, Shadow Man. The game originally released in 1999 and was developed by Acclaim Studios Teesside.
Based on the Shadowman comic book series published by Valiant Comics, the game puts you in control of Michael LeRoi, the current Shadow Man. The Shadow Man comes from a long lineage of voodoo warriors tasked with protecting world of the living –known as Liveside– from threats crossing over from Deadside. Threats such as the game’s main antagonist, Legion –a man looking to collect all of the Dark Souls to bring upon the Apocalypse.
Shadow Man Remastered is being developed by Nightdive Studios, who recently worked on another one of Acclaim’s legacy titles, the Turok Remasters.
The Remaster will be bumping everything up to a crisp 4K resolution, improved shadow mapping and lighting, anti-aliasing, and even additional content that was cut from the original release.
It might not be the first title that comes to mind when you think of superhero games, but it is one worth keeping an eye out for.
