July 2025
don't get the hate this game got. Although I am someone that did not like the direction that they went with Shadow Warrior 2, so I am quite glad they went back to what they did with Shadow Warrior 1. From the gameplay to the graphics style (amazing vistas) the game is such a treat, espacially with the funky soundtrack.

June 2025
Shadow Warrior franchise suffers from having an identity crisis since every single installment is different than the previous one, and Shadow Warrior 3 decides to carry on the tradition by simplifying the gameplay and heavily copying DOOM Eternal by adding grappling hook, glory kills that replenish HP and provide new temporary weapons and mixing it with heavy platforming elements. The gameplay is actually enjoyable; I had a lot of fun while playing it. Therefore, it’s not necessarily a bad thing to be inspired by something successful and implement certain mechanics into your own work with a twist. I could even say that this was the most fun Shadow Warrior game I’ve ever played. Yeah, it’s short, but it doesn’t overstay its welcome, which is a good thing. I just wish it had more than 2 boss fights, though. The previous entries were longer, and they offered a lot more content compared to this one, but I didn’t really like the second one since it was more of a looter-shooter with heavy ARPG mechanics, and there were barely any unique missions in it. I’m glad they went back and implemented new stuff while they’re at it. However, the first Shadow Warrior will always have a special place in my heart. Unlike its predecessors, the achievements are very easy to get, and I’m surprised they didn’t add any when they updated it to the Definitive Edition. The Hero Mode returns, a game mode that grants you one life only, but this time, you can earn up to 3 by performing glory kills. Since the game is about 5 hours long, the mode itself doesn’t offer any challenge at all, especially considering that you can play it on any difficulty you want. Your reward for beating it is a weapon skin, which is kind of disappointing. There is also New Game Plus, and it gives you a chance to replay any chapter you want to complete the remaining challenges and collect the rest of the upgrades. The Arena Mode offers a bit of replay value, too, but playing each of them up to wave 10 is enough to earn yourself their dedicated weapon skins. The new challenges they add after beating the game only advance your rank, which rewards you with 2 more weapon skins. The humor is still there, and it’s better than ever, but the guy who delivers killer one-liners isn’t. They recast Jason Liebrecht because he is white, and it’s apparently offensive to some white folks for a white person to represent an Asian guy. Out of all the games out there, I never thought Shadow Warrior to devalue itself by falling into such a trap. The tragicomedic part of it is the fact that the new voice actor Mike Moh is Korean and Lo Wang is Chinese. You fired the original guy almost a month before the release and recorded new lines with a guy who isn’t even Chinese!? Flying Wild Hog and Devolver Digital, I thought you were better than this. I’m deeply disappointed because those guys aren’t even a part of your audience. TL;DR A very fun entry to the Shadow Warrior franchise that is heavily inspired by DOOM Eternal, but a bit short and offers only 2 boss fights. Performing executions, swinging around with the grappling hook, and platforming are very fun, though. The sad part is that the original voice actor of Lo Wang has been fired to be replaced with a Korean guy to fix the inconsistency with Lo Wang’s cultural background. The only problem here is Lo Wang is Chinese, not Korean. Maybe that was a joke, too, huh?

Shadow Warrior 2 took a step back from the Shadow Warrior series becoming a looter shooter for no reason and Shadow Warrior 3 took it back. This is what you should be expecting from a Shadow Warrior game, a linear FPS with some fun weapons and raunchy humor. I was hesitant to get this because the reviews were even worse than 2 which I did not like but it's a return to form. This is basically what Shadow Warrior 2 should have been. The game is rather short at just about 5 hours to complete so grab it on sale but it's definitely a lot of fun. I just wish the katana combat was more focused like it was in the original.

The story may be short but this game is a lot of fun. Also they added a survival mode you can play after you beat the game to keep things interesting. That being said I did get the game on sale for about half off so if you can wait but still a fun over the top shooter game. Lot of doom influence that actually shines in the shadow warrior universe.

Shadow Warrior 3 is the third installation of the Shadow Warrior trilogy. Unfortunately, it was also the weakest child of the family. While I mostly enjoyed it, there are several issues that just brings the game down a grade. There are some bugs that are quite annoying, unlimited waves of enemies until I had to reload the checkpoint, some wall clipping issues, issues that didn't even exist in Shadow Warrior 1 and 2. The story was really short as well. Nonetheless, this game is action-packed and I love the gore that fills my whole screen up. I love the weapon choices and upgrades, they complement the game really well. I got this game heavily discounted so I got my worth out of it. I would recommend this game if you are looking for some mindless fun, although it was only satisfactory because we had such banger games in Shadow Warrior 1 and 2.
