It introduces different enemies, weapons and then there's "gore weapons". Balancing the two is key and quite honestly, using only the katana got the better of me purely because of how fun it is. Shoot a demon, and they'll drop health, slash with your katana, you'll get ammo. You can double jump, dash, crouch slide, all while aiming your gun in the arena style environments that set up the fights. The gameplay however is as Hoji says, "If it's worked once, it will work again." Shadow Warrior's an extremely stylish shooter.
The story plays out in minor cutscenes in the game though there are some minor audio lags that may play out, however the game ran perfectly fine Dance like a butterfly, sting with your Katana Shadow Warrior 3 picks up right from the ending with the previous game where the damn dragon has almost had its fill of the shadow realm and Lo Wang is forced to work with his former enemies to deal with it. Shadow Warrior's reboot does away with this and I'm happy to say that Shadow Warrior 3 does focus on Lo Wang a bit more and the fact that all he rather do is be a huge nerd and his bromance and borderline obession with his best friend, Hoji who's back to provide you with some commentary. Shadow Warrior as a series was notorious for portraying some Asian stereotypes because of its titular character Lo Wang.
It's a shame though given that this world is more cartoonishly and creatively designed and I wouldn't have minded an open world to explore but for those of you who are experiencing the fatigue of spending 200 + hours to finish a game 100% percent, Shadow Warrior 3 will definitely provide some light respite. Shadow Warrior 3 now goes back to its linear experience instead of opting into open arenas in the world that give you these high octane moments of action. It was a change getting used to given that the focus changed slightly despite having the same crazy gunplay the series had. While Shadow Warrior 2 turned the series around with a more slightly open world with a looter shooter mechanic attached to it. A gameplay change in direction, for the better
