Discover the 5 classic games that are beloved and adored by many players, that deserve a remake with our list.
While remake culture has become more prevalent in the last few years, there are still a few games that deserve to be remade. Additionally, these games are cult classics, and their impact on the gaming industry as a whole is massive. So, here are five games that deserve a remake as they changed gaming as a whole.
1. ICO
Fumito Ueda’s first-ever masterpiece, ICO, is a simple game. On paper, it is an escort mission with few enemies in a castle. However, in reality, it is one of the best games we have ever seen. It inspired Hidetaka Miyazaki to change his career and become a game developer. Additionally, the looping level design and lonely aesthetic of the Souls series are directly inspired by ICO.
As this game had such an impact, it deserves to be remade for modern consoles. While Bluepoint Games has made a gorgeous remake of Shadow of the Colossus, we believe that their next big remake should be ICO in order to bring all Fumito Ueda games to modern consoles.
2. God of War
The original God of War on the PlayStation 2 kick-started a series of games that made an impact on the action genre. It was brutal, action-packed, and featured amazing boss fights and beautiful environments. With how successful the series is now, it is right to revisit the game that started the Greek Saga and bring it up to modern standards.
Additionally, many fans have been asking for a God of War remake for years now, with rumors constantly giving them hope.
3. Devil May Cry
The original Devil May Cry is another instance of a series that led to us receiving some of the best action games of all time. Additionally, this series has also provided us with one of the most iconic rivalries in gaming—Dante vs. Vergil. So, it feels right to remake Devil May Cry, as it feels outdated now compared to its sequels. Also, the aesthetic of the original Devil May Cry is something that only Devil May Cry 3 came close to but could not surpass.
4. Assassin’s Creed
The game that kick-started one of the biggest franchises in gaming, Assassin’s Creed, is a great game. However, it has some features that feel outdated when revisited now. For that reason, it feels right to remake the game that made the entire series possible. While rumors suggest that Ubisoft is remaking Assassin’s Creed IV instead, we believe that the original Assassin’s Creed deserves that treatment more.
5. Final Fantasy VIII
Every Final Fantasy fan always praises Final Fantasy VII, resulting in VIII being ignored by many players. It is quite unfortunate, as VIII is a game that stands on equal footing with some of the best Final Fantasy games. If this game were to be remade, it would bring it the glory it deserves. However, we can only hope that Square Enix decides to remake this eventually.
