Whisking into a mission is as easy as selecting it on a map, doing a spiritual wave of your hands (what, we're not driving?!) and getting to work. The game utilizes an open-world hub in which you can pick and choose missions, whether it's following your master or doing something for other folks around town. Teaming up with a rather spiritual partner (and one, surprisingly enough, that can put up with Wang's terrible sense of humor), it's your job to complete tasks, earn some new weapons, and deal with the odds, ranging from dynamic samurai warriors to high-tech machinery that won't hesitate to go all Terminator on your sorry butt. Those bothersome Oni have made a return, along with a whole lot of demons and even a few gunrunners for good measure.
As you might recall from the original review, Shadow Warrior 2 is all about dealing with trouble.
