Flying Wild Hog has recently become known for its memorable FPS efforts, including the successful Shadow Warrior revival and the futuristic Hard Reset. For its third project, the studio has opted to move away from the FPS genre and move into classic platforming with Juju, which is set to hit PC and consoles later this year.
What happens after the Shadow Warrior Lo Wang sweeps through a building, lopping off limbs and showering everything with blood? Why, someone calls the Viscera Cleanup Detail, of course. Devolver Digital has released a special version of RuneStorm's mop 'em up for owners of the bleed 'em up, letting you clean up Wang's mess.
Who wants some Wang? How about a purple one, thanks to some cross-promotion between Deep Silver and Devolver Digital? Saints Row 4 owners can unlock the series' Penetrator for the upcoming Shadow Warrior.
If you were concerned about the Shadow Warrior reboot toning down the racism, hey, chin up you silly sausage: it still cracks jokes about how the hero's surname is Wang. 2 (two) such jokes feature in a new trailer fresh out of Gamescom, which also reveals the FPS will arrive on September 26.
An E3 closed-door demo of Shadow Warrior shows off how Flying Wild Hog stays true to the spirit of the original title, while simultaneously updating it for a modern audience.
Devolver Digital's Nigel Lowrie and Flying Wild Hog's Jan Bartkowicz talk about their plans to update Shadow Warrior and frontman Lo Wang for a 2013 audience.
The announcement of Shadow Warrior was a pretty low-key affair, really just a teaser site and a short blurb. Today's the big day Hard Reset developer Flying Wild Hog and publisher Devolver Digital finally lifted the wraps off their "total reimagining" of 3D Realms' classic FPS of the same name and, well, they don't reveal much but it's certainly looking pretty.
Hard Reset developer Flying Wild Hog is making a new Shadow Warrior, the company has announced.
Hard Reset: Extended Edition has been announced for a March 2012 PC retail release in the UK, published by Kalypso Media.
Shiny sci-fi shooter Hard Reset was criticized by some for its short length, and developer Flying Wild Hog's has now added a new mode built for replayability: wave survival. Support for Nvidia 3D Vision and multiple monitors has also arrived.
