The game is more story-driven than its predecessor and follows a warrior known only as 'Shadow', who fights to regain his lost honor and physical body after accidentally opening the Gates of Shadow and unleashing six demons into his world, who reduced him to a faceless silhouette. The player starts out unarmed, but as they level up, they unlock more advanced weapons and equipment. The game uses the same graphics as Shadow Fight, which depict the player character and their opponents as 2D silhouettes. It was then released to Windows 8 and 8.1 on January 26, 2015, and to the Nintendo Switch as a downloadable Nintendo eShop title on September 13, 2018. The full game was released worldwide on May 1, 2014, for both the Android and iOS operating systems. It is the second installment in the Shadow Fight series and was soft-launched on October 22, 2013.
Shadow Fight 2 is a role-playing fighting game published and developed by Nekki and Banzai Games.
