Shadow Warrior 2 aims to put as much chaos and filth as possible on your monitor and in your ears, and it’s an absolute blast as a result. Then again, if you’re playing the second iteration in a series with a narrative that continues across sequels, the hope is that you’d understand what you’re getting into. It’s for this very reason that the mentality you go into this particular title with is imperative. If you go into Shadow Warrior 2 hoping to be moved by an emotional story that’ll make you contemplate your mortality, then disappointment is soon to follow. My idea of fun could be very different from yours, but in general, if you’re the type of person that enjoys playing games, the difference between a serious game and one that’s hoping to simply be a blast is somewhat obvious. Quantifying fun in a video game review is one of the toughest things for a writer to do, and it’s a practice that’s generally frowned upon.

It might not do everything perfect, but considering the general seriousness of all of the fall releases this year, Lo Wang’s return provides a healthy dose of lunacy, stupidity and a hell of a good time. In a nutshell, if you combined 2016’s Doom with a lighter version of Diablo III‘s loot system and a whole host of South Park humor, you’d wind up with Shadow Warrior 2. There’s a segment of the gaming population, however, who appreciates self-aware stupidity (read: anyone who enjoyed Doom earlier this year), so if you fall into this contingent then you’re in luck. If toilet humor or ultra-violence doesn’t equate to dumb fun for you, then this isn’t your type of game. Shadow Warrior 2, much like its reboot predecessor in 2013 and said reboot’s original version in 1997, is not for the easily offended. Editor’s Note: This article mentions a piece of the ending of 2013’s Shadow Warrior.
