Shadow Warrior 2 in the works

A follow-up to last year’s Shadow Warrior reboot is on the way.

Published Devolver Digital and developer Flying Wild Hog have announced that Shadow Warrior 2 is in development. The action title is set for a 2016 release, and features four-player online multiplayer.

The game will be on show at E3 next week.

Devolver Digital CFO Fork Parker added: While the game is bursting with stunning visuals and exquisite combat, it’s the near constant barrage of Wang jokes that is going to move product. The kids love thinly veiled dick jokes. Love ‘em.”
