Independent developer Flying Wild Hog and rogue game publisher Devolver Digital unleashed Lo Wang all over your current generation consoles today as the 2013 hit remake of Shadow Warrior is now live on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 consoles in North America and Europe.
Flying Wild Hogs’ Shadow Warrior is a complete reimagining of the 1997 3D Realms cult classic released last year, gaining critical and commercial success at launch. The PlayStation 4 version adds touchpad support for more intuitive controls, combos and special moves. Also, Wang jokes.

Shadow Warrior tells the offbeat tale of Zilla Enterprise’s corporate shogun, Lo Wang, who is ordered by his employer to track down and acquire a legendary blade known as the Nobitsura Kage. Forced into a timeless battle, Lo Wang learns of the blade’s connection to ancient gods from another realm, pushing our world to the brink of destruction. Aided by Hoji, a banished spirit from this mysterious world, Lo Wang must use a masterful combination of gun, blade, magic and wit to discover the truth behind the demonic invasion and banish the encroaching forces back into the darkness.
Shadow Warrior is available now for next-gen consoles for £29.99.
