Dan Courtney writes - "Shadow Warrior is the newest release by Polish developer Flying Wild Hog. It’s a remake of the ’97 release of the same name by 3D Realms, who are the same guys who brought you Duke Nukem. I was blissfully unaware of this when I picked the game up, but as soon as the story’s protagonist Lo Wang started spouting obscenities and poorly-constructed witticisms, I thought “Wow, he’s like a shitty, vaguely racist Duke Nukem.” What drew me to this game was the promise of awesome sword fighting and hacking countless hoards of demons to death as I cut a swath of destruction through hell and back. The game falls flat on the former while delivering on the latter- sort of."
The Shadow Warrior reboot debuted on PC 10 years ago today. Thankfully, it's still compatible with modern PC, PlayStation and Xbox formats.
Shadow Warrior debuted in 1997, an unlikely Duke Nukem 3D follow-up that later birthed a respected modern FPS series.
