There’s even some footage of the game’s grappling hook, which Flying Wild Hog admit isn’t the most original mechanic but adds another layer of movement options and capabilities to a formula that already looks fun as hell. It also delves into the game’s Gore Weapons mechanic, which incentivises the player to use finishers on enemies in order to turn their fleshy instruments of death on everyone else for a limited time. The blog post goes into more detail about the gameplay, showcasing a never-before-seen level in the form of The Dragon’s Nest. 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. This is still a huge get for PlayStation Now subscribers, as Shadow Warrior 3 is shaping up to be a mighty fine FPS indeed.

You’d think an announcement like that would get a little bit more fanfare within the blog post, but that’s another story. In the clashes we use a rich arsenal of firearms and katana, as well as environmental elements and the hero’s agility. We observe the world from a first-person perspective (FPP), and the fun comes down to battling hordes of enemies. The news comes from a PlayStation Blog post from Flying Wild Hog themselves, with lead producer Bartek Sawicki confirming it as a throwaway line in the first paragraph. Shadow Warrior 3 uses a scheme developed by the creators of the previous two installments in the series. Fans looking forward to continuing Lo Wang’s adventures in slaying demons will be excited to learn that the upcoming release of Shadow Warrior 3 will be launching on PlayStation Now as a day one title on March 1st, alongside its launch on PC, PS4 and Xbox One.
