And this bad boy (or, is that girl?) is basically the living embodiment of the end of the world. And I don’t mean any old dragon, but a gigantic dragon that’s as big as Manhattan island. I didn’t play much of SW, remember? In any event, and if you didn’t either, Shadow Warrior 3 does an excellent job filling in the gaps.Īpparently, there’s a dragon.

Where last we left out heroes… actually, hang on, because I don’t really know where we last left out heroes. Halo Infinite (yes, I know it came out last year), Serious Sam: Siberian Mayhem, and Dying Light 2 are all in that mix, and I’d easily say Shadow Warrior 3 was right there with them. Each one was really different, and to all of their benefits. I’ve had the good fortune of playing a bunch of great FPS titles to kick off 2022. Oh, and maybe just as important than all of that, a personality that differentiates it nicely from pretty much every other modern FPS. Shadow Warrior is loaded with awesome weapons, fantastic good-looks, and solid control.

As to why, I can’t really say, but I see now that I’ve been missing out. I had a cup of coffee with the original reboot, but that’s about it. I have to admit, I haven’t played much of this series before this newest title. The new Shadow Warrior features a young Lo Wang (punny), who is a self-styled superhero that’s always getting into a little too much trouble. It’s still comedic for sure, but that and the base themes are pretty much all the twin sets of games have in common.

A far cry from the spoof that the name embodied back in the 90s, developer Flying Wild Hog’s rebooted series has a personality all its own. Maybe one of the most under-appreciated first-person shooters in the modern catalog, Shadow Warrior just keeps rolling. Of course, it’s an apocalypse he brought on, but you get the drift. Lo Wang is back once again, and this time is up against the apocalypse itself.
