Devolver Digital and developer Flying Wild Hog have announced the release date for Shadow Warrior 2.
The over-the-top and hyper gory action shooter will launch for PC on October 13th. Featured above, a new trailer was released to celebrate the game’s new release date.
Pre-orders for the game will nab you a 10% discount, even on PC, where it will be available via Steam, GOG, and Humble. If you own the original Shadow Warrior and / or Hard Reset Redux you’ll get a further 10% off the game.
Devolver also showcased roughly 12 minutes of gameplay for the game, which you can view below:
Expect our hands-on preview of the game forthcoming. The game will get a PlayStation 4 and Xbox One release sometime after its PC release.
