A remastered release of a TPP shooter with horror elements from 2011. Shadows of the Damned: Remastered stars Garcia Hotspur, a demon hunter delving down into hell to save his beloved.
Shadows of the Damned: Remastered is a remastered version of a creative shooter with horror elements from 2011. It was developed by the same studio as the original game, Grasshopper Manufacture.
Shadows of the Damned: Remastered stars Garcia Hotspur, a motorcyclist and professional demon hunter. When he learns the ruler of hell - Fleming - has kidnapped his beloved, he embarks on a private crusade and delves deep into the underground. Fortunately he's not alone, as he's ed by a talking (and helpful) skull named Johnson and other allies met along the way.
Shadows of the Damned: Remastered is a third-person game (TPP). The game is set in numerous diverse, atmospheric locations full of enemies. In aside to numerous regular foes we'll also face much more powerful bosses. Our primary weapon is Johnson, able to transform into a torch (used in melee combat) or firearms - pistols, shotguns and machine guns. The game has no regenerating health; to heal, we must drink alcohol. As we progress through the game we develop Garcia and Johnson, increasing their combat potential.
Apart from fighting enemies we must also frequently solve environmental puzzles. Puzzles task you with dispelling darkness, which drains Garcia's health and makes his foes invulnerable. To get rid of it, we must usually fire light at the nearby goat head or get rid of the demon generating it.
There are also occasional action platforming minigames.
Shadows of the Damned: Remastered stands out from the original game with its enhanced visuals.

TechRaptor: 7 / 10 by Joe Allen
Shadows of the Damned: Hella Remastered doesn't reinvent the wheel, but it offers a new glimpse at a fascinating relic of the seventh console generation.
Analog Stick Gaming: 4.5 / 10 by Jeff M Young
Shadows of the Damned was a fairly mediocre release back in 2011 and a proper remaster or even a remake to change a few design choices that were forced upon the creators, could have really made this something special or at least improved elements of the game that needed it. Instead, this “Hella Remastered” release is nothing more than an up-res’d port with a few costumes and a newgame+ mode. The Adaptive Triggers and Gyro Aiming on the PS5/Switch might be able to entice some players to jump in, as well as the cheaper buy-in price of $24.99, but this is still nothing more than a straight port of a 13-year-old game that wasn’t that great to begin with.
SteamDeckHQ: 3.5 / 5 by Noah Kupetsky
Shadows of the Damned: Hella Remastered is a faithful remaster of the 2011 release, which is both a great change-up from newer releases and sadly missing some nice quality-of-life features that make third-person shooters more enjoyable.
