Release Date: October 13, 2016
A sequel to a first-person action game, which in turn was a remake of a popular FPS from 1997. Polish developer Flying Wild Hog comes back with a continuation set five years after the events of the first game. In Shadow Warrior 2 you play as Lo Wang, who now leads a lonely life of a mercenary working for the local Yakuza.
Shadow Warrior 2 is a direct sequel to a 2013 game, which, in turn, was a remake of a popular FPS from the 1990. The original game was created by the legendary developer, 3D Realms studio, and run on the same game engine as the iconic Duke Nukem 3D. The aforementioned remake and its sequel, released on PC, PS4 and XONE, were created by a Polish developer, Flying Wild Hog, who previously had a pretty good debut releasing the futuristic shooter Hard Reset.
Shadow Warrior 2 is set 5 years after the events of the first game. During that time the world has changed a lot, since people learned to coexist with previously hostile demons. Once again you play as Lo Wang, the protagonist of the first Shadow Warrior, who now leads the lonely life of a mercenary working for a local Yakuza. However, something goes wrong, and the hero has to face armies of evil once again.
When compared with the previous title, the gameplay did not change much. Wang takes on the demons using a wide arsenal of melee weapons and firearms. While wielding various types of blades he can make precise cuts to chop off parts of the enemy's body. The game also includes the progression system known from the first game, as well as weapon customization.
What is new in Shadow Warrior 2 on PC, PS4 and XONE is a co-op mode for up to four people, in which a group of players fights off enemies while trying to complete mission objectives (including optional ones). Each hero can be customized by picking his weapons, armor, and extra items, which you gradually unlock as you progress. It is noteworthy that, in both single player campaign and the co-op mode, the locations are procedurally generated, which makes each playthrough unique.

Game Ratings for Shadow Warrior 2 Video Game.
GameSpot: 8 / 10 by Mat Paget
Shadow Warrior 2's unfunny story gets in the way of an otherwise great game.
TheSixthAxis: 7 / 10 by Jim Hargreaves
Flying Wild Hog has gone well beyond churning out a simple sequel to its rebooted series. Shadow Warrior 2 stands on its own as a frenzied yet fresh blending of genres that can easily enthral groups of players for hours at a time. For lone wolves, the looting and shooting will be slightly less appealing. This, and a few smaller hitches, hold the game back from greatness, though die-hard fans of the genre will certainly get their fill.
Attack of the Fanboy: 4 / 5 by William Schwartz
Shadow Warrior 2 is a worthy successor to the 2013 reboot. Flying Wild Hog obviously put more work into some of the gameplay systems for the game, while keeping the original's great combat system and charm. If you're up for some bloody fast-paced first person combat, this ultimate power trip won't disappoint.
