A reboot to the 1997 video game Shadow Warrior. It follows a younger Lo Wang, an assassin at the employ of corporate mogul Orochi Zilla. Lo Wang is tasked with retrieving an ancient sword called the "Nobitsura Kage". However Lo Wang's assignment proves difficult when a demon invasion happens - the demons themselves also seeking the sword, forcing Lo Wang to team up with the banished demon Hoji (who doesn't remember WHY he was banished) to find the Nobitsura Kage before Zilla, repel the demon invasion, and find out the truth behind Hoji's banishment.The game was developed by Flying Wild Hog of Hard Reset fame. Greater emphasis was put on sword combat (with the MacGuffin being a Cool Sword), with Lo Wang now capable of doing devastating combos and using Ki Manipulation to great efficiency, on top of his arsenal of guns. The game stays true to the tongue-in-cheek tone of the original, while going for a more developed, complex story.An expansion to Viscera Cleanup Detail about cleaning up the first level after the events of the game was released 11 Oct, 2013.A sequel, Shadow Warrior 2, was released for PC, PS4, and Xbox One in 2016.The third installment, Shadow Warrior 3, was released on March 1, 2022. | |

Villain: Exit, Stage Left: After losing his hand in the duel, Zilla stumbles away from Wang while he's fusing the Nobitsura Kage and is picked up by a helicopter piloted by the Kyokagami twins. Wang wants to stop him but agrees to help Hoji instead. Come the sequel, Zilla is as powerful as ever. | |

Katanas Are Just Better: It is the game's primary weapon, capable of disarming (literally) enemies and shearing off heads, and as Lo Wang grows in power and skill, it's capable of potent Ki Manipulation like a Spin Attack and a Sword Beam. In addition, Lo Wang can find and assemble the legendary Nobitsura Kage, which is designed to kill demons. | |

The Exile | |
| Shadow Warrior (2013) (Video Game) / int_1b8c7503 | comment |
The Exile: Hoji was banished from the Shadow Realm two hundred years ago, though he has no memory of why. Near the climax it's revealed he poisoned Ameonna, thus stopping the rain vital to the Shadow Realm, and then created a Whisperer which Enra viewed as an abomination. For these crimes he was banished. | |

Suicidal Cosmic Temper Tantrum: The loss of the Shadow Realm's rain and its following spiral into destruction is the result of Hoji, driven mad by his love and hate of Ameonna, deciding he no longer cares what happens to the world or himself so long as he can get revenge for her making him feel so intsensely and Enra taking her away. | |

Poor Communication Kills | |
| Shadow Warrior (2013) (Video Game) / int_1c445e86 | comment |
Poor Communication Kills: The plot might have turned out a lot differently had the villains bothered to talk to the other characters (bonus points with the villains being the only ones with enough memories of important events to even do so). For instance, if Enra had bothered to give his side of the story in the first three-quarters of the game, he might have convinced Lo Wang that Hoji was a villain long enough to complete his plan, especially since it's not exactly untrue. Zilla might have won if he didn't try to treat Lo Wang as a traitor for managing to pull his off job even better than what he was hired for, which only happened because Zilla decided to stop supporting him to begin with after blaming him for Mizayaki being unwilling to sell the sword. In other words, Enra and his brothers die because he didn't tell anyone why he was invading, and Zilla lets that invasion grow out of control because he doesn't keep Lo Wang in the loop or tell Mizayaki what was at stake until it was too late. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Shadow Warrior (2013) (Video Game) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: When Lo Wang reaches his lair, he gives himself a haircut, shaving himself bald, but leaving his beard intact - just like the original Lo Wang. Like the original one, he is bare-chested at this point of the game. The common demons greatly resemble the Uzi-wielding ones from the original - just a bit more spikey. Killing too many rabbits will spawn a Killer Rabbit that's similar to the one from the original. The various secrets areas lying around are directly taken from the original, low-res textures and all. You can also find the original game as an arcade machine in various places. Upon reaching the final level, Lo Wang will shout out "WHO WANTS SOME WANG?!" The original's Riot Gun is implied to be the military version of this game's shotgun, according to its flavor text - the Riot Gun was full auto and had a proper magazine, unlike this game's shotgun. Orochi Zilla escapes yet again. | |

Sliding Scale of Anti-Villains: Of the Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds kind, Hoji caused the near-destruction of the shadow realm by poisoning his sister/lover out of heartbreak and revenge. Said sister/lover had promised to stay by his side, but left him after he was horribly disfigured as punishment for causing a drought in the Shadow Realm, as her tears of sadness nourish it with rain - and him being with her stopped the tears. | |

My Master, Right or Wrong: Mezu is by far the most loyal to Enra, and was the one who stopped Hoji's plot to depose him and put Xing on the throne of the Shadow Realm as revenge for separating him from Ameonna. Hoji mocks his loyalty as being of the unquestioning "yes sir, no sir, three bags full sir" variety that Gozu had. | |

Ooh, Me Accent's Slipping | |
| Shadow Warrior (2013) (Video Game) / int_35b241c0 | comment |
Ooh, Me Accent's Slipping: A dramatic version. Towards the end, Hoji loses his weird nerd lisp and becomes much more morose, serious, and clear. Given that he just became nearly suicidally depressed at finding out what he did, it's probably why he stopped being silly. At the same time, Lo Wang loses his accent occasionally. | |

Cut His Heart Out with a Spoon: Following Wang's betrayal of the Kyokagami twins, the radio comes on as one of the twins starts expounding on how she's going to have Wang skinned, slowly, stuffed, and mounted on all fours. The radio cuts out before she explains what exactly is going to be shoved in his corpse's mouth. | |

Adaptational Heroism | |

Adaptational Heroism: A very downplayed example, but in the original game Zilla was just a bad guy without any redeeming traits or characterization. Here, he's still a bad guy, but seems to have some respect for Lo Wang, as well as claiming at one point that Zilla Industries has invented a lot of things that benefited humanity (which is technically true, even if he had them invented for completely self serving reasons.) | |

Gameplay Grading: Your performance in larger battles is rated when the last enemy dies on a five shuriken scale. More shurikens results in a better karma bonus for the fight. Aside from that, each chapter receives a score on your overall performance including the percentage of available cash you collected and your average battle ranking. | |

Credits Gag | |
| Shadow Warrior (2013) (Video Game) / int_4af55b78 | comment |
Credits Gag: A rare non-comedic example. The credits roll endlessly, looping back to the beginning, as the camera does a flyby of the final level... When it departs from Lo Wang kneeling above Hoji's evaporating form, we see his sister looking up at Wang. When the camera rolls back to this staircase the first time, we see Wang kneeling in the same pose above her unmoving body. The second time, Wang is gone, leaving the Nobitsura Kage embedded into the stonework next to the girl's body. However, these changes between flybys no longer happen as of version 1.5 on the PC. | |

Losing Your Head | |

Losing Your Head: Xing lost his head to Gozu on Enra's orders after he conspired with Hoji to poison their sister and try to overthrow Enra. But as an Ancient Xing cannot be killed by any means except the Nobitsura Kage, and so losing his head is just an incredible inconvenience to him. You encounter his head late in the game, when you journey to the Shadow Realm to rescue Hoji and stop him from creating a Whisperer of you and sacrificing his memories of you, and he proves to be quite the amiable and chatty fellow. The second game has him getting a new lease on life thanks to Zilla's Chi technology. | |

Improbable Use of a Weapon: Equipping the Serious Sam sledgehammer doesn't change the attack animations. This gets odd when executing Divider of Heavens, where Wang stabs with the hammer. Same with the Excalibat from Rise of the Triad and the Penetrator from Saints Row IV.note At least the latter was made with thrusting in mind. | |

Heroic Sacrifice: Two. First Hoji saves Lo Wang by throwing the Nobitsura Kage to him, knowing fully well that merely touching it will kill him, all while defying Enra that it will not be his blood to awaken their sister Ameonna. Not much later, when Xing is killed and the last Whisperer is destroyed, Enra surrenders and allows Lo Wang to slice open his throat to revive Ameonna, bringing back rain to the Shadow Realm. See Alas Poor Villain above. | |

You Will Not Evade Me | |
| Shadow Warrior (2013) (Video Game) / int_649345a2 | comment |
You Will Not Evade Me: The warlord's left arm allows him to shoot out grapple that temporarily stops Wang from moving before dragging him across the room to the warlord. This is doubly dangerous as other demons can wail on Wang while he's trapped and the warlord will immediately follow up the move with a ground pound. On the other hand, this can lead to Hoist by His Own Petard, as nothing prevents you from charging Divider of Heavens before getting grappled, and then ramming your katana through the warlord's face on impact. Or just using the shotgun's altfire. Either works. | |

Bullfight Boss | |
| Shadow Warrior (2013) (Video Game) / int_66a52e25 | comment |
Bullfight Elite Mook: Berserkers. They can turn towards you if you dodge out of the way, but they won't stop if you hide behind a wall or tree. They're stunned when slamming into a wall, which is almost required to kill them as everything except their back is bulletproof. Gozu, whose armor has a bull motif, turns into this during the second phase of his fight when both of his arms are destroyed. He charges at Wang in an attempt to crush him, leaving his chest vulnerable briefly while he's reorienting. | |

Meaningful Name | |
| Shadow Warrior (2013) (Video Game) / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: The large fuck-off revolver is named "Tosainu". The Tosa Inu is a very large, extremely aggressive breed of Japanese dog, which is considered by most professional dog handlers to be unmanageable and useful only for tearing people you don't like into giblets. It's even referenced in it's Flavor Text. Ameonnanote who is named after a type of Youkai that calls forth rain literally translates into "Rain woman" which makes her name both this and Exactly What It Says on the Tin. | |

Demon Lords and Archdevils: The Ancients, the rulers of the Shadow Realm, are immortal, and cannot be killed by any mortal means. The only thing that can kill an Ancient is the Nobitsura Kage, and such is its nature that even in its incomplete form, no being of the Shadow Realm can touch it without dying. | |

Brother–Sister Incest: Due to the nature of the Ancients, all of them but Xing and Enra had the hots for their sole sister, Ameonna - but the biggest example out of them all would have to be Hoji, who truly made her happy and loved her so much that he was willing to devastate the Shadow Realm for her sake. | |

Black-and-Gray Morality: Wang is a ruthless assassin looking to live out a superhero fantasy and Hoji is a petty Jerkass out for revenge, but Zilla is a Corrupt Corporate Executive that sold out humanity to demons and Enra is a demonic tyrant unleashing Hell on Earth. In the end, Hoji turns out to be much blacker than he seems as he doomed the Shadow World out of heartache and spite and Enra turns out much grayer as he was trying to prevent said doom. Enra even sacrifices himself in the end to make things right. | |

This is also true the second time you fight it, as it is left with half health, making it obvious that you will fight it a third time. A minor one occurs with the sword. When you get the revolver, you're taught about upgrading weapons with money, but the sword's upgrades are locked. As you acquire other weapons, the sword remains as the only weapon that doesn't tell you about its upgrades or allow you to purchase them. This makes it not so much a surprise when you get the first upgrade as part of the plot, and further that the other two legendary swords are simply part of the true Nobitsura Kage, since they must be upgrades to a single weapon. | |

The large fuck-off revolver is named "Tosainu". The Tosa Inu is a very large, extremely aggressive breed of Japanese dog, which is considered by most professional dog handlers to be unmanageable and useful only for tearing people you don't like into giblets. It's even referenced in it's Flavor Text. | |

And I Must Scream: Subverted. Xing got decapitated with his head left on a pedestal in a corner of the Shadow Realm for several millennia, but is still alive, being an immortal Ancient. All things considered, he's taking it very well, since he no longer has to deal with his family's squabbles. He's gotten bored of staring at the same wall, though, and asks Lo Wang for a change in scenery. | |

Alas, Poor Villain | |
| Shadow Warrior (2013) (Video Game) / int_ac09dc0f | comment |
Alas, Poor Villain: In the end, Enra just wanted to save his world by killing the one responsible for almost destroying it. He lets Lo Wang kill him in order to revive his sister and allow her tears to bring back the rain. He could have sacrificed one of his other brothers whom he used as pawns anyway, but he admitted his defeat and made himself a noble sacrifice in the end. This also applies to the one who kicked off the disaster Enra was trying to fix, Hoji. Literally driven mad by a love for Ameonna that could never be satisfied, he came to hate her for making him feel and hurt so intensely. He lashed out by poisoning her and then sealed away his memories in a Whisperer simply to making the hurting stop. All the deaths in the game can be laid at his feet, but it's hard not to feel some sympathy. | |

Pinned to the Wall: A kill with the crossbow will blow the enemy back and will pin them to a wall if one is close enough. This gives a "Nailed" modifier to your score and counts for an achievement. | |

Retcon: In the original game, Zilla sends his men to kill Lo Wang soon after Lo Wang resigns. The 2013 reboot, however, has Hoji and Enra pit Lo Wang and Zilla against each other because both Hoji and Enra have their own conflicts against each other. Lo Wang has gone from a Dirty Old Man with a heavy accent who'll hit on anyone with breasts and spouts off sex jokes like no tomorrow, to a young, slightly accented man with no interest in women. Especially not ones who might try to kill him. | |

First-Person Ghost: Played straight and averted at the same time. You can see your legs if you look down, but Lo Wang doesn't cast a shadow and isn't reflected in water. Only once he's reflected in a mirror but it's because of the Important Haircut scene. The legs even clip with the arms if you move while looking down. | |

Transformation Is a Free Action | |
| Shadow Warrior (2013) (Video Game) / int_b9616deb | comment |
Transformation Is a Free Action: Averted in during Lo Wang's first Cutscene Boss fight with Zilla. Lo Wang just slashes Zilla, injuring him, when he stupidly stands still and tries to charge up some kind of power attack. This is also possible in the updated version where he is an actual fight, as his charging for attacks is a great opening. Also averted with demons when they go berserk. This process involves floating into the air while crackling with energy and their skin changing color, but they're completely vulnerable being unable to move or attack. | |

Standard FPS Guns: To be fair, they're quite stylized with a number of upgrades and curious secondary attacks, but in the end, you pretty much start with a melee weapon and finish off your arsenal with a Rocket Launcher, in that order.

A.K.A.-47 | |
| Shadow Warrior (2013) (Video Game) / int_c2b28f75 | comment |
A.K.A.-47: Only a couple instances. Zig-zagged with the Tosainu Type 13. While it's an oversized version of the Chiappa Rhino 60DS revolver, it's so heavily customized that it almost counts as its own weapon at this point. Its costumizations are a katana-styled grip, an 8-round cylinder instead of 6, and re-bored to fire .455 Webley rounds instead of the typical .357 Magnum, .40 S&W, or 9x21mm IMI. The Zilla Industries PDW is a straight-up MP7. Lampshaded in the flavor text, which states Zilla Industries was forced to stop distribution of the gun after being sued by a German arms manufacturer.note Heckler and Koch, for the less gun-inclined, make the MP7 and are based out of Germany. | |

Harder Than Hard: Heroic difficulty warns the player when chosen about the dangers. Auto and manual saves are disabled aside from saves at the start of each chapter, meaning the entire chapter must be completed on one life. Enemies have more health and hit harder than on Insane, the highest of the normal difficulties. And it cannot be run in EX mode, meaning Wang has no upgrades and cannot acquire them all due to limited resources. | |

Shout-Out | |

Shout-Out: "Do you feel lucky, chump? I mean, punk? Damn, I always fuck that up..." Lo Wang singing along to "The Touch" in the beginning. Also doubles as a shoutout to Saints Row IV. The pre-order laser katana makes lightsaber noises. Lo Wang later refers to himself as a "simple moisture farmer". The killer rabbit is in this game also. As are the scantily clad anime babes from the original game - mostly in areas TAKEN from the original game! One of the demonic rabbits (this one is always in the game instead of randomly spawning after the death of a rabbit) can be found in a secret area, standing in a cave between a beheaded knight and a golden chalice. Two achievements are called "The Touch" and "The Power" referencing Stan Bush's "The Touch" note "You've got the Touch, You've got the Power!, the theme song of the 1986 The Transformers film. Lo Wang will also mention in the intro he might have to employ "The Touch". Doubles as an homage to Saints Row IV as "The Touch" plays in the lead-up to the final boss fight. Many of the fortune cookies make references to famous people in humorous ways, ranging from Bill Hicks to George Carlin. invoked After an incredibly Ho Yay-filled moment where Lo Wang manages to convince Hoji not to give up his memories of Lo Wang to a Whisperer to undo what he'd done to the Shadow Realm and his beloved sister and defeat Enra instead, Hoji, complete with cowboy twang, says "I wish I knew how to quit you." One of the fortune cookies contains "You're the best. Around. No one's ever gonna let you down." Another cookie reads "Help! Help! I'm trapped in a video game factory!" The flavor text for the rocket launcher says that the rockets it fires are named Nuke Dukems. On finding it, Wang declares "Hail to the king, baby". The comics in the Wang Cave are designed to evoke the cover of various real life comics. In particular there is a french comic depicting a cover based on the cover of one of the Tintin comics, especially on Tintin: Explorers on the Moon (it even is the 2nd part of a series, according to the cover), although it is set on Mars and the Tintin's Expy is a zombie. One of the levels has a few retinal scanners which are blatantly modeled after HAL. They're even labeled as "Dave"!! The same level has a short tram ride with the automated announcer following the same (albeit condensed) script as the one in Half-Life's intro. In one level, Lo Wang and Hoji chat about the Rocky movies: Beside posters and arcade cabinet of Hard Reset, there's another and quirky reference to Flying Wild Hog's previous game. At the very beginning, if you walk down the road on each side, at some point you cannot move further, as the road further down is in truth just painted on a large tarplaulin which has a hole - and through it you see the world of Hard Reset. On finding the pistol Wang declares "What's this? You want me to take this? I guess it's dangerous to go alone". | |

The Zilla Industries PDW is a straight-up MP7. Lampshaded in the flavor text, which states Zilla Industries was forced to stop distribution of the gun after being sued by a German arms manufacturer.note Heckler and Koch, for the less gun-inclined, make the MP7 and are based out of Germany. | |

Spin Attack | |

Spin Attack: Circle of Iron spins a full circle with the katana. On lower difficulties this can one-shot any regular demons surrounding Wang as the blade is positioned perfectly for decapitations on standing enemies. | |

Hoist by His Own Petard | |
| Shadow Warrior (2013) (Video Game) / int_d397657d | comment |
On the other hand, this can lead to Hoist by His Own Petard, as nothing prevents you from charging Divider of Heavens before getting grappled, and then ramming your katana through the warlord's face on impact. Or just using the shotgun's altfire. Either works. | |

I Know Your True Name: Lo Wang demands to know his demon companion's name because he read that knowing it will give him control over him. When he gets it, Hoji is shocked that Wang could pronounce it, stating that he must be the one the prophesies spoke of - someone who will believe any goddamn idiot thing made up on the spot. | |

Action Bomb: When flying demons enrage they hurtle themselves at Wang while spinning in a ball, exploding on impact.

The Mothers themselves explode when killed and will curl up and roll at Wang at high speed when enraged to explode. | |

Last of His Kind: Averted. It might seem like this, but it is explicitly mentioned by Hoji that draining the Ki of his brothers is in no way lethal, and that only the Nobitsura Kage can kill them. Still, aside from Ameonna, their sister, only the Dumb Muscle variety of Ancient is still alive, while one of those three might have actually also died when Lo Wang killed his body with the Nobitsura Kage while his head was alive and laying on a rock. All in all, not a lot of them left. | |

Turns Red: Demons regularly do in combat, making them faster, more aggressive, attack more often, and have more health. The ability wears off after a certain amount of time or can be removed with a chi ability. Regular demons literally turn red with black skin and red claws while the fireball-spitting demons turn a dark green. | |

Love Makes You Evil: The reason behind most of the plot... Hoji and Ameonna fell in love, which caused her to stop crying. As her tears are the source of the Shadow Realm's vital rain, this caused a drought. The two were discovered and separated, with Hoji's face being cut off as punishment. Driven mad by losing her and the intensity of the feelings she had awakened in him, Hoji came to hate Ameonna and Enra. He poisoned Ameonna to sleep eternally, not caring what happened to the Shadow Realm, and sealed his memories related to Ameonna in a Whisperer. | |

Video Game Cruelty Potential | |
| Shadow Warrior (2013) (Video Game) / int_f87c42d4 | comment |
Video Game Cruelty Potential: The most efficient way to kill an enemy is with a headshot, but why stop there? Slice their legs off with your katana, then set them on fire while they're lying helpless on the ground. Blow off their arm and, while they're clutching their stump, knock them on the ground and tear their torso apart with a shotgun blast. Ignore the enemies screaming in agony as they burn or pound their head into a bloody pulp to escape you and turn a mini-boss into a porcupine with crossbow bolts. It says something that letting an enemy bleed or burn to death earns you a "Merciless" modifier while putting them out of their misery gets you "Merciful". | |
