Shadow Warrior 3

Shadow Warrior 3 is an upcoming first-person shooter developed by Flying Wild Hog and published by Devolver Digital. As the sequel to "Shadow Warrior 2" (2016), the game is set to be released for Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in 2021.
Gameplay.
Like its predecessors, the game is a first-person shooter and the player assumes control of Lo Wang, the series protagonist. In the game, Lo Wang has access to a large arsenal of firearms which can be used to defeat enemies. In addition, he also wields a katana, which is limited to close-quarters combat. At close range, players can execute wounded enemies. They can also use the environment to their advantage. As the player progresses in the game, they receive new weapons and gadgets which aid them in combat, all of which are meant to be unlocked and available by the time the player reaches the mid-point of the campaign. The game features more linear levels and a more streamlined upgrade system when compared with "Shadow Warrior 2", though it introduced new movement options for Lo Wang, such as giving him the option to wall run, double jump, air dash, and utilize a grappling hook to quickly transverse between platforms and vertical surfaces.
Story.
Set in a world described as "Neo-Feudal Japan", corporate enforcer-turned-freelance mercenary Lo Wang and his former enemy and employer Orochi Zilla are on a quest to track down and defeat an ancient dragon that they have accidentally awakened, along with hordes of new and deadly demons. Jason Liebrecht returned to provide the voice for Lo Wang.
Development.
"Shadow Warrior 3" is currently in development by Polish studio Flying Wild Hog. Game designer Paweł Kowalewski described the game as the "upgraded" version of the 2013 reboot, adding that the game is "over-the-top" and that it will make players "feel overpowered". The new movement options were added as the team "wanted players to be able to move freely like a ninja from their favorite animes". This also allowed the team to craft combat arenas that are more vertical in design. Many systems in "Shadow Warrior 2", including weapon stats, procedural generated maps, and character progression, were streamlined or removed altogether in "Shadow Warrior 3", so that players can focus on the action and need not to worry about their combat efficiency.
The team drew inspirations from both Japanese and Chinese cultures when they were creating the game's universe. The game's humor also became more mature, with the team saying that they wanted to "modernise" Lo Wang as a video game character by giving him more backstory. Devolver Digital officially announced the game on July 6, 2020. It is set to be released in 2021 for personal computers, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
