Definitive Edition packs new modes including brutal Hardcore difficulty, Survival waves, New Game Plus challenges, and Hero Mode's permadeath stakes alongside Lo Wang's signature wisecracking humor.

Experience the Definitive Edition of Shadow Warrior 3, an ultraviolent blend of fast-paced gunplay, razor-sharp melee combat, and a spectacular free-running movement through a mythical Japanese realm. Test your skills in Survival Mode, New Game Plus, and Hardcore Mode, and WATCH OUT FOR THAT DRAGON!

Fallen corporate shogun Lo Wang and his former nemesis Orochi Zilla return in Shadow Warrior 3, the latest entry in the gore-soaked, wisecracking FPS series. Embark on an improbable mission to recapture an ancient dragon Lo Wang unwittingly unleashed from its eternal prison, tearing your way through a fractured land infested with demons using a dynamic arsenal of blades and bullets.

NEW FEATURES include; NEW GAME PLUS, bringing with it additional challenges, weapons skins, and rewards; SURVIVAL MODE, allowing you to put your skills to the test against waves of incoming enemies, a new HERO MODE game modifier offering an even greater challenge; CHAPTER SELECT for rapid replayability; and finally, HARDCORE DIFFICULTY - the most intensely punishing version of Shadow Warrior yet!

Bring a Katana to a Gunfight


Conduct a symphony of death with each encounter by mixing overwhelming firepower with devastatingly precise katana strikes as you dash in and around the demonic hordes.

Fancy Footwork


Flow between nimble movement techniques, including air dashes, wall running, and double jumps, and the fancy new grappling hook busts your combat and movement options wide open in every battle.

Execute Then Annihilate


Execute spectacular finishing moves to claim a piece of your conquered foe and unleash its powers back on the horde in a burst of unstoppable fury and powerful magic.

Dynamic Combat Arenas


Each environment is lined with hazardous structures and devices that can be activated to add another layer of creative choice to the offensive strategy.

Neo Feudal Japan


Trek across a mythic Asian land infused with the magic and technology of ancient samurai, now overrun by the demonic yokai from Japanese folklore.

Funny Business


Brace for expertly delivered one-liners from Lo Wang, pointed banter with Zilla, and an intense thrill ride of absurd predicaments on the way to turning doomsday into a new day.

Step up your Lo-Wang game!


Survival Mode is a completely new game mode allowing you to play in 3 new battle arenas providing hours of new gameplay! 3 new weapon skins will be up for grabs for those who can complete the challenge! Survival Mode becomes available after finishing the game!

Relive magical moments!


The Chapter Select menu lets you go back and collect missing upgrade points and relive some of your favorite moments that defined your adventure with Lo-Wang in whichever order your heart desires!

Give Lo-Wang’s mojo some additional pazzazz!


New Game Plus gives you a new way to play the game. Enjoy additional challenges, rewards, and skins to give Lo-Wang that much-needed confidence boost!

GO VULGAR, OR GO HOME!


The new Hardcore Difficulty lets you experience the most intensely punishing version of Shadow Warrior yet! Not for the faint-hearted.

LOSE A LIFE, LOSE A SAVE

Not a bad game as people say it is. It is different compared to the first two titles but hey, I’m a simple guy that enjoys fun and Shadow Warrior 3 is just THAT. The humor is present despite being dumbed down, the gameplay is fun yet challenging, and the title is well optimized. My issue however is the story’s length which involves double-thinking via price tag. I have beaten the first two Shadow Warrior games and I will admit, the third entry is the weakest however, it still remains a fun yet silly game.

This iteration of the Shadow Warrior series is an arena shooter ala Doom. Plays well, guns feel good, movement is clean. The story mode is entertaining enough but very short (5 hours for me on normal).

I honestly can't get behind how much hate this game got. As someone who played the original remake back a few years ago, came back and played it AGAIN before gunning a playthrough of SW2, doing all the quests in that one, and then going to this one.. this one was EASILY the best. The gunplay was tight, movement was fast, and the DOOM: Eternal arena based approach was intense and kept the action at a high the whole game. The ability to rip weapons from enemies was also a neat concept. I even liked the little platforming/wall run/grapple interlude bits. The weapon roster is smaller but I prefer it, each gun felt like it fulfilled a role in combat (I thought SW2's approach had just too much weapon bloat from it being a looter shooter with none of the guns really behaving different from each other unlike in something like the Borderlands franchise). Now it's not a perfect game, but it's Shadow Warrior, it's not trying to be the next DOOM overthrower and I can respect it. It's got the same old cheesy humor as the other games did (saw some other review saying the humor got worse...literally half the jokes in SW2 were fart jokes, and then 80% of those were just milking how much Wang desp…
