This comes as a surprise: Blowfish Studios has the action-adventure Shadowman: Dark Legacy announced and at the same time the sequel a video game series that is now 24 years old. The information about the latest offshoot is not too extensive, but we’ll summarize it for you the most important details together. In 1999, Acclaim Entertainment released the first Shadow Man game (then written separately) based on the comics of the same name. Released for the Sega Dreamcast and the Nintendo 64, the story revolved around the interplay between the World of the living (Liveside) and the dead (Deadside). The successor came three years later Shadown Man: Second Coming for the PS2 on the market.
This is what awaits you in Shadowman 3
You slip into the role of the still quite inexperienced Shadowman Jack Boniface, who must face the fight against evil. The Deadside kingdom also plays an important role here. During his adventure, the protagonist gets it with a variety of creatures as hideous as they are deadly to do. Sometimes fanatical cultists and necromancers get in his way.
The battles describe the developers of Blowfish as “challenging but rewarding”to come elaborately staged boss fightswhere a little more tactics are required.
Furthermore, the focus is on the interaction between the Liveside and the Darkside: the two kingdoms are similar in structure, but they are very different in detail.
These geographical conditions serve as the basis of a variety of puzzlesthat Jack Boniface must solve. In addition, as with the predecessors, you can expect one very dark and spooky atmosphere. Shadowman: Darkque Legacy is released for the year 2024 planned, there is no concrete date yet. The game will be released for PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.
