This becomes repetitive fetch-quests make up a large portion of the game. This is the part of the game that becomes drawn out as your sent on plenty of quests to go retrieve something or another. Sounds like paradise, doesn’t it? So what’s a Wang to do? Well, if you’re him, you do whatever you’re told to get this person out of your head. Thankfully, you’re able to recover her, transport her to someone who saves the only way to save her is to temporarily put her soul into yours? What? Yep, Wang’s not going solo this time as he’ll have a partner in his head for the duration of the game who’s just as much of a pain as he is. You’re sent to recover a missing person of interest, and along the way, that person is inflicted with some sort of demonic presence that threatens to kill them. The premise of Shadow Warrior 2 is pretty simple to take in. He’s my kind of hero or anti-hero if you like that sort of thing. If he and Deadpool were in the same universe, they would be total buddies. A foul mouth, kick-ass, “don’t say crap to me or I’ll knock you out” character.

Oh, and they made Lo Wang even more hilarious this time around. As a fan of the original Shadow Warrior, I was smitten when Flying Wild Hog took it and brought it into the modern gaming world, and I was looking forward to what they would do in part two. Oh boy, I’ve been waiting to get my hands on this game ever since I had a chance to check it out during PAX East 2016.
