About
Shadow Warrior 2 is the stunning evolution of Flying Wild Hog’s offbeat first-person shooter following the further misadventures of former corporate shogun Lo Wang. Now surviving as a reclusive mercenary on the edge of a corrupted world, the formidable warrior must again wield a devastating combination of guns, blades, magic and wit to strike down the demonic legions overwhelming the world. Battle alongside allies online in four-player co-op or go it alone in spectacular procedurally-generated landscapes to complete daring missions and collect powerful new weapons, armor, and arcane relics of legend.
Five years have passed since Lo Wang shattered the alliance between his deceitful former boss and the ancient gods of the shadow realm. Despite noble intentions, Lo Wang’s efforts to annihilate the darkness corrupted the world, creating a strange and savage new order where humans and demons live side by side.
The once feared warrior now lives in the shifting wildlands outside the reach of his enemies and the neon glow of Zilla’s cybernetic metropolis, scratching out a meager existence as a hired sword for the local Yakuza clans. When a simple mission goes wrong, Lo Wang is drawn into a volatile conflict between a brilliant young scientist, his nemesis Orochi Zilla, and the demonic forces that have become unsettled in our world. The sharp-tongued hero must once again wield lethal blades, staggering firepower, and archaic magic to purge the world of evil.
Blades and Bullets: Lo Wang delivers his own brand full throttle brutality with an expanded array of over 70 lethal blades and explosive firearms to overcome the demonic opposition. Become a whirlwind of steel and blood with razor sharp katana, short swords, crescent blades, and hand claws or unleash a hellish symphony of ornate firearms to decimate your enemies.
Four Player Co-Op: Battle through the expansive campaign alone or team up as a four-player typhoon of destruction online in campaign co-op mode. Tackle challenging primary missions or thrilling side quests while maintaining your own ninja style with customizable armor, items, and valuable loot from your triumphs.
Procedural Environments: The breach between the human and demon realms created an interdimensional hernia resulting in constant shifts to the world of Shadow Warrior 2. Procedurally generated landscapes and paths bring new twists and turns to once familiar terrain and routine missions.
Brutal Damage System: Choose your weapon based on the situation at hand and then dismantle everything that stands in your path with an advanced gore system. Use precision blade strikes to separate limbs and heads or switch to heavy ordinance and blow a hole right through colossal beasts.
Custom Upgrade System: Upgrade weapons in your arsenal with up to three stones at once to improve performance or augment them with devastating elemental effects. Collect karma, amulets, and armor to enhance Lo Wang’s power and shift his death-dealing artistry into overdrive.
The Shadow Warrior series started back in the 90s with Shadow Warrior Classic that was remastered and released on Steam by Devolver Digital and 3D Realms as Shadow Warrior Classic Redux. Then in 2013, Flying Wild Hog and Devolver Digital released the bold reimagining of the legend of Lo Wang with the modern classic Shadow Warrior.

[h1] You got the touch You got the power When all hell's breaking loose You'll be riding the eye of the storm You got the heart You got the motion You know that when things get too tough You got the touch [/h1] [h3] Минусы: [/h3] - Страшный дизайн оружия. - Стрельба пластмассовая, оружие вообще не ощущается. - По моей памяти это самая медленная двухстволка, пока он выстрелит, пока перезарядится, это ппц. - Улучшения оружия с помощью перков, чтобы купить перки, проходим доп. квесты, мдааа. То лучше или же лучше это купить, Господи, ненавижу это. - Сеттинг уг это уже какое фэнтези: непонятные роботы, анимешки самураи. Господи боже помилуй. - Лук как оружие вообще бесполезное создание. - Расчленёнка выглядит мегадёшево, не понимаю, на скриншотах игры она выглядит намного лучше. [h3] Плюсы: [/h3] + Оптимизация пойдёт. + Графика более-менее, но для 2016 года какой-то позор, тот же Дум 16 выглядит в десятки раз приятнее. + Неплохие задники и пейзажи. [h3] Итог: [/h3] Всухую проигрывает думу шестнадцатого. Оценка — 4/10.
玩起来和一代感觉是两个游戏,爽感略有提升,但是和一代一样的堆怪问题太严重,怪物种类太少,很多时候都是同种怪反复刷,武器系统做的还不错,想体验割草爽感的可以一玩
Очень быстро и не очень понятно, и зачем надо было продолжать первую часть вот таким вот странным образом, сюжетка крайне короткая, побочки однотипные, на диалоги и персонажей на 99% пофиг в виду их неинтересности. Сеттинг тоже немного поменялся, теперь присутствуют кислотные неоновые высотки на некоторых локациях что плюсов игре не прибавляет, чисто игрушка на 3-4 часа пробежки по сюжету, каких либо сложных паттернов нет, из-за чего смысла проходить на более высокой сложности чем средней смысла мало. Боссы же представляют огромную мишень которая заставляет бегать по кругу на арене и тыкать пока нет фреймов неуязвимости :\
If you liked SW1 but really dont like looter shooters, do not get this one. If you do like them, ignore this
Shadow Warrior 2 — это идеальный выбор для тех, кто хочет расслабиться и получить дозу адреналина. Это не философская притча и не шедевр нарратива, а честный, бескомпромиссный экшен, который знает, в чём его сила: в скорости, крови, юморе и море оружия. Если вам нравятся DOOM, Serious Sam или Borderlands, эта игра точно придётся по душе. Оценка: 8,5/10 — мощный, стильный и безумно весёлый шутер, который не даст заскучать.
Turns out, combining first person POV and gun-fu gameplay is not always a good idea. Especially if you have a motion sickness (I'm not). Whole gameplay feels like a chore. While it has a lot of arsenals of mayhem to choose for your gameplay, it doesn't cover the bad story, repetitive quest, boring gameplay, and graphic issue. I was planning to continue it to the third game, but I think I give up. 4/10
It's pretty rock-solid. Funny. Cool guns. Everything a dude would want in a game. Two thumbs up.
This sucks. Non stop annoying enemies. I have no idea wtf is going on ever. Is there a story? Maybe, but that sucks too. The weapon upgrades would be okay if not for like a billion you have to tediously sort through constantly. There is just nothing good about this game.
Amazing coop FPS game, feels like a mix of DOOM and Borderlands. Gameplay is smooth (there are a lot of melee and ranged weapons, which you can also mod and upgrade to your liking), graphics still look nice in 2026, story and side missions are great and it is actually kinda funny (had a lot of laughs during cutscenes). Sometimes it is glitchy and buggy, sometimes weird ping spikes happen. But other than that, grab it with some friends (in sale it goes for 3€) and go slay some demons!
还行吧,不知道是不是优化问题玩起来有点卡。
