Yes, well, that didn’t take long, did it? Only a day after Shadow Warrior developer Flying Wild Hog started teasing a potential sequel to its old-school shooter, publisher Devolver Digital has announced that one is indeed on the way.
Shadow Warrior 2 will continue the adventures of wise-cracking, ass-kicking series protagonist Lo Wang, who’s glimpsed in a brief cinematic trailer, along with an old geezer suffering some kind of fit.
The game’s also got its own teaser website, though information is non-existent there and very short on the ground everywhere else just now. You don’t announce a relatively high-profile game this close to E3 without taking it to the show, so expect to find out more soon.
2013’s Shadow Warrior was a reboot of the cult 1997 shooter, which saw Lo Wang taking on both demonic hordes and the local Yakuza. All while managing a pesky demonic possession. No platforms have been announced for the sequel, but PC and next-gen consoles would be a safe bet.
