GOG Offers Exclusive Incentives For Shadow Warrior Pre-Orders
Gamers who pre-order Shadow Warrior at GOG will get an exclusive katana drawn from the original game.
The Escapist recently had the chance to <a href=http://www.escapistmagazine.com/articles/view/editorials/reviews/previews/10524-Shadow-Warrior-Preview-All-the-Wang-You-Can-Handle>take a peek at Flying Wild Hog's reboot of Shadow Warrior and what we saw left us fairly impressed. It looks bloody, it looks fast-paced and, above all else, it looks fun. Suffice it to say we wouldn't be sad to have a little more Shadow Warrior in our lives. Lucky for us, GOG and the game's publisher, Devolver Digital, have teamed up to dish out a deal that will do just that.
Gamers who pre-order the Shadow Warrior reboot at GOG will find themselves sitting pretty on a complimentary copy of the GOG version of free on Steam, you might want something else to sweeten the deal. That in mind, a GOG pre-order will also net customers an exclusive in-game item, a katana rendered after the one from the original game. The online retailer is also offering a pre-order discount that drops the price of the game to $33.99 (original price $39.99). The fact that the game will, per the retailer's standards, be DRM-free doesn't hurt either.
When you get down to it, pre-orders come with an inherent risk. There's no solid way to tell how good a game will be prior to its release. That being the case, pre-orders can come with perks and, as far as we're concerned, a free game is a pretty decent extra. That being the case, if you're among the "wait and see" camp, we'd still recommend you give Shadow Warrior Classic a try. Some elements, like it's blatant political incorrectness, haven't aged the best. That said, it's still fun game and well worth a play through.
