Robert Seddon has made us to notice about an interesting article at Team ICO Gamers Blog: they have discovered an huge, unused architecture hidden in the Eastern area of the game map. This discovery was made by Pikol, thanks to some codes, and as they wrote on the article this unfinished building “looks unlike anything else in the game. Architecture wise it looks much more modern than the temples and arenas where colossi roam. It actually looks more similar to the castle in ICO.”

As Robert said, we can only wonder if this place was going to be used for one of those unused colossi that were made in the beta of the game. Huge props to Pikol for this find! Take a look at these pics and especially at the video:

Here’s also a version of the map with the eastern lands included, and no clouds obstructing any of the areas. It was ripped from the PSU demo of the game:
