Double the katana, double the attitude.

UPDATE: Did you get the regular Wang and realised he's not shiny enough for you? Now you have the option to <span class="bold">upgrade to Deluxe Edition</span> and get all that extra swag that was missing from your life!

<span class="bold">Shadow Warrior 2</span>, the bombastic sequel to the notoriously cheeky FPS, is now available, DRM-free on GOG.com, with GOG Galaxy support for achievements and multiplayer, plus cross-play across all PC platforms.

He will slice, he will dice, he'll make the demons pay the price. Lo Wang is once again caught in the middle of a cataclysmic fight that involves dark magic, dark science, and a whole bunch of misshapen monstrosities. But the talented death-dealer is now packing an expanded selection of murder weapons, including his katana, daggers, and hand claws, alongside some nasty magic powers and dependable firearms. The 4-player co-op, the procedural environments, and the brutal damage system will make using these new toys all the more rewarding and Wang's trash-talking all the more justified.

NOTE: Shadow Warrior 2 supports cross-play for public multiplayer matches, allowing GOG Galaxy players to team-up with friends from Steam against the ugly minions of darkness.

Carve up some nasty demons with your edgy swagger in <span class="bold">Shadow Warrior 2</span>, DRM-free on GOG.com. Want to add some more style to your mayhem? The <span class="bold">Deluxe Edition</span> comes with the soundtrack, the artbook, and the Solid Gold Pack.

In the press:
"Holy shit, I need some more of that!"
USgamer
"Shadow Warrior 2 is an energetic shoot 'n' loot with great melee and ranged combat, co-op, and a pile of dirty jokes."
8.6/10 – IGN
"Shadow Warrior 2 is a blood-soaked triumph packing more weapons than an army"

Tyrrhia: Take that, Obsidian / Paradox! :P
Wait! You mean it doesn't take a billion man hours, landing a rocket on the moon and solving world hunger to create a DRM-free upgrade? No way, I don't believe you. It's just unpossible!

Is SW2 more demanding for the hardware compared to SW2013?

Is anyone else who pre-ordered Shadow Warrior 2 Deluxe Edition seeing that GOG shows owning the base game plus the Deluxe Edition Upgrade while not owning the Deluxe Edition itself? It just seems odd to me. :)

At least one person I know actually found it less demanding (same engine, better optimization).

Yep. Same problem.

So, while fighting the end boss, you hear the track "Stan Bush - Warrior". Yet I buy the "Original Soundtrack" and it does not have it. What a ripoff.

Yes, I do.
And I'm not even surprised. The games with more than one variation are a mess on this site...

That would be great. For me, SW2013 is just about playable on the lowest settings at a low resolution.

(Also hi, I'm sorry I haven't had time to join your streams recently)

Text from attachment is incredibly universal:

"Upgrade Paths on DRM Free
Just because another studio or game has upgrade paths on DRM Free, doesn't mean it's immediately a possibility for us or Pillars of Eternity. Assuming as much is incredibly naive. Every team's processes, resources, and games are innumerably different.

Almost every single piece of conjecture about ways we could have or should roll out our upgrade paths on DRM Free have either been wildly off course or avenues we've already investigated.

Now, of course it's theoretically possible to have upgrade paths on DRM Free, I mean, there's a robot taking selfies on Mars right now. So sure, given infinite resources and time we could undertake the task of rewriting the underlying architecture at the core of this decision, but that's straight up not feasible for a vast number of reasons that are unique to Paradox, Pillars of Eternity, where we're standing right now and where we see Pillars of Eternity's future."

You see, Paradox? I made a statement for you. No thanks needed :P
