Man, reading that sentence back does it a disservice. So, with the furor of some corners of the right fresh in my mind, I booted up Shadow Warriors, not knowing what to expect and after a clever introduction which fills you in on a little bit of backstory, dragon this, betrayal that, swearing-a-plenty – it looks beautiful I might also add, I was dropped straight into what serves as Shadow Warrior 3’s training level. Hi-Octane beginnings That shotgun is going to cause a mess with these frozen enemies

Basically, if they choose to carry out their threats of boycotting the game, well I’m certainly not going to lose any sleep and I doubt the good folks at Devolver will either. Obviously, parts of the internet reacted with predictable outrage about the removal of a white actor from an Asian role, but the less said about them the better.

Moh’s most notable TV work was as Steve Cho in Empire, but he also has some martial arts experience as Bruce Lee in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Also arriving are Andromeda Dunker (Motoko) and SungWon Cho (Zilla). You play Lo Wang (yes, I’m assuming it is the first of the many penis gags), but this time, obviously the real world has changed and Flying Wild Hog has changed the voice actor of Wang to Mike Moh from Jason Liebrecht.ĭevolver said on announcing Moh that the voice changes were part of an effort to “correct our mistake” of not casting Asian actors for Asian roles. I hadn’t played the other two games in the rebooted series, although I did play the original waaaay back at the end of the 90s and, even though Shadow Warrior 3 continues the story, it hardly matters. I’m not going to dwell here, there’s no point. Get out kid, I’ve got demons to eviscerate. My 13-year-old daughter came into my home office while I was playing this to ask me to tone down my language.

Not just the swearing the game’s protagonists spew out, but the swearing pouring from your own face as you die, and die, and die again. Gore, adult humor and visceral mind-blowing action are all ahead of you as you boot this threequal from Flying Wild Hog and Devolver Digital. If you are looking for a game to enjoy with kids, yeah Shadow Warrior 3 probably isn’t the one.
