Heavy Spectrum, the UK studio that in the past has worked on Dungeon Keeper, Star Fox and Need for Speed, has revealed they are developing a remake of Amiga classic ‘Shadow of The Beast'.

The new take on the 25 year-old game is exclusively for Playstation 4.
Writing on the Playstation blog Matt Birch, founder of Heavy Spectrum, commented: "We want to create a magical combination of unique combat and gameplay to enthral you as a player, with a mystical world that can engage you as a person."

The new Shadow of the Beast looks set to be a violent and visually stunning update of the original game. Check out the extremely gory and hugely entertaining trailer below.
