If back in 2009 you got hooked onto the first version of Shadow Complex, you can't miss out on the chance to try out the new remastered version of the platform shooter game developed by Epic Games based on Empire, the novel written by Orson Scott Card.

With stunning graphics that make that most of Unreal Engine's capacity, we'll submerge into the story of Jason and Claire, and their accidental encounter with underground facilities in the North Pacific, where a group called Progressive Restoration is conspiring to cause a Civil War in the USA using advanced military technology.

An incredible adventures you'll never forget.

Like a Super Metroid reimagined by J.J. Abrams

As you can see, it's the same plot as the original game and the same typical side-scroll of this game that will remind us of Super Metroid and Castlevania, but with improved graphics and characters, new elements, more achievements, greater challenges and a new dynamic one-on-one combat system.

Throughout the game the player will move around 3D settings, although his character can only move in 2 (that's where the concept of 2.5 dimensions comes from), using all sorts of futuristic weapons to face up against enemies while he acquires experience points to purchase weapons and exoskeletons, as he completes missions and kills bad guys.
