Shadows of the Damned was applauded for its personality and style when it landed back in 2011, but the gameplay was panned for being middling and shallow. Revolving around a road trip through hell to rescue the protagonist’s girlfriend, Hella Remastered sports overhauled graphics and a new game plus mode, but otherwise seems mostly like the same old game that No More Heroes designer Goichi Suda and Resident Evil designer Shinji Mikami cooked up together all those years ago. We’ll see if that alchemy hits different in 2024.
