Looks like the Shadow Warrior 3 release date is set for March
Shadow Warrior 3, developer Flying Wild Hog and publisher Devolver Digital’s upcoming action-fuelled FPS game, could be due to launch in less than two months. That’s according to a store listing on the Xbox shop for a ore-order bundle that gives the game an early March release date.
The store listing gives the Shadow Warrior 3 release date as March 1, and there are some other exciting details, too.

That’s a pretty good deal, especially if you’ve yet to try the 2013 and 2016 shooters and fancy giving them a whirl now the latest is on the near horizon.

The gameplay is all about flying bullets, nimble dashing, big finishers, and “overwhelming firepower”, as fans have come to expect from the series. There’s a new grappling hook for this entry which adds extra combat options into the mix, and you can dish out “spectacular finishing moves to claim a piece of your conquered foe and unleash its powers back on the horde in a burst of unstoppable fury and powerful magic”, as the store page outlines.
