Shadow Fight 2

Shadow Fight 2 is the second installment of the trilogy. Released worldwide in 2014 for mobile devices and ported to computers and eighth-generation consoles, the sequel is more story-driven than its predecessor. The plot follows a warrior known only as "Shadow", who was once a legendary warrior, renowned for never losing a battle. While seeking a worthy opponent, Shadow accidentally opened the Gate of Shadows, a pathway to another realm, unleashing powerful demons into his world. Reduced to a faceless silhouette, Shadow now fights to reclaim his lost honor and physical body.

The game consists of multiple acts, each of which involves the player leveling up by taking part in battles against AI-controlled opponents, earning currency to upgrade Shadow's arsenal. While the first acts revolve around Shadow battling the demons he unleashed upon the world and looking for a way to seal back the Gates of Shadows, and also defeating the demons.The final part of the game sees Shadow venturing into the Shadow World, where he must defeat an alien warlord called "Titan". The game also includes a multiplayer mode, where rather than fighting each other, players must work together to defeat various bosses in the Underworld.

Shadow Fight 3 is a fighting game with action role-playing elements. It was announced in April 2017 with an expected release in the fall of the same year. [2] After extensive beta-testing, the game was released in Canada [3] on July 17, 2017, in India on October 27, 2017, and worldwide on November 16, 2017. [4] It is playable in many languages.

Unlike its predecessors, Shadow Fight 3 does not represent fighters as silhouettes. Instead, they are rendered as lifelike three-dimensional characters in an animated environment. Players build up a gauge during combat, which allows them to temporarily enter 'Shadow Form'. This allows them to use shadow abilities. Shadow abilities are based on the player's current gear and faction. Items are acquired in the form of collectible cards that can be earned or purchased.

The game takes place years after the events of Shadow Fight 2, and revolves around a conflict between three distinct factions. The player starts the game as a member of Legion, which uses mostly European weapons like swords and hammers and has slow but powerful attacks. Later, they escape to Dynasty, which has a faster, more acrobatic fighting style and uses weapons from around Asia like Nunchaku and Guandao. The final main faction is Heralds, who have more precise attacks and mostly Japanese weaponry like Naginata and Katana (of which two variants exist: normal Katana and ones used in a manner similar to Iaidō).
