Shadow Warrior 3 will now launch at some point in 2022 for PlayStation 4, but Devolver Digital being the way it is wasn't about to let the chance of doing something fun with the delay announcement slip. As such, the new trailer embedded above certainly looks cool, but then two invisible talking heads pause the action and explain developer Flying Wild Hog needs a little bit more time. That's okay, though, because this FPS looks pretty darn cool.

Supposedly the official release date in 2022 will be announced soon alongside lots of footage, so at least we have that to look forward to. Shadow Warrior 3 is currently just slated for PS4 in terms of Sony's family of consoles, but the PS5 owners amongst you will be able to get in on the first-person action through backwards compatibility.

Past Shadow Warrior titles have performed fairly favourably with critics, as the sequel improved upon the original with a Metacritic rating of 78 on PC. If the series continues its upwards trajectory then Shadow Warrior 3 could be something very cool. It'll be next year when we find out if that's the case or not.
