Shadow Warrior was a tongue-in-cheek remake of 3D Realms’ 1997 first-person shooter of the same name. Developed by Flying Wild Hog, it quickly became a cult favourite, migrating from a PC-exclusive in 2013 to a multiplatform console affair on PS4 and Xbox One in 2014.
From now until launch, you can pre-order Shadow Warrior 2 for 10 percent off. You get the Razorback chainsaw katana as a bonus. If you own Flying Wild Hog’s previous games Shadow Warrior and/or Hard Reset Redux, you’ll be getting another 10 percent off.
Check out the Video:
“What’s happening on the screen at any one time is almost irrelevant. Hold down the trigger and then bad guys explode, genius.
Bombast on its own is not a problem. The real issue with Shadow Warrior 2 is how dull it feels in spite of the explosions. The world feels lifeless, even when populated by raging cyber-demonic forces. For all their visual splendor, the guns feel like cheap toys, lacking any palpable impact. Aside from the always-welcome damage numbers, I never had a solid indicator of how much pain I was dealing. After a scant few minutes inside the world of Shadow Warrior 2, I felt myself itching for the demo to end so I could do something more interesting with my time.”
