One filter to rule them all.
The remastered edition of Shadow of the Colossus comes along with a bunch of cool features. Ranging from specialty items, weapons, as well as filters.
There's a total of 15 filters you can mess around with. You basically have a filter for each colossus, or if you really have a lot of free time, you can just play the game 15 times to check each one out. Whatever floats your boat.
