Hi all,

We have a BUNCH of updates for you for the entire Shadow Warrior series here on GOG :)

Shadow Warrior 2013

Before doing ANYTHING at all, please refresh your account as we have included a separate installer, compatible with Galaxy's autoupdates should you choose to use that particular feature found in Galaxy once it gets released.

This separate installer with the snazzy black cover is the Direct X 11 version of the game for those of you who would like to enjoy the game in native DirectX 11.

To refresh your account, please click this link: https://www.gog.com/account/refresh

Along with the DX11 version, you should now see a Mac DMG and a Linux tarball for Shadow Warrior 2013. If you use Mac or Linux, please download the snazzy new Mac and Linux files, they're fresh out of the oven :)

Bonus content

Viscera Cleanup Detail: Shadow Warrior has been updated. Please take the time to redownload this mini-game :)

You also have the soundtrack in MP3 or lossless FLAC.

For those of you who like artbooks, there is an artbook included in the bonus goodies section of the non-DX11 version of Shadow Warrior 2013.

Changelog for Shadow Warrior 2013:

1.5.0:

- optimized 32 & 64 bit build
- DirectX 11 based graphics
- modified gameplay

1.1.2:

- Fixed rare crash when using alt-tab
- Fixed rare Gozu crash
- Fixed saving weapon fx's when using non standard katana

Shadow Warrior Classic Complete

We've uploaded a new DEB and a tarball for your Linuxing pleasure :) We hope this venerable classic plays well for you under Linux :)

Thanks and have a nice day :)

edit: the non-DX11 version version did not receive patch 1.5.0 so if you would like the latest version, please play the DirectX 11 version Shadow Warrior 2013 :)

Geralt_of_Rivia: Refreshed my account twice right now but only one Shadow Warrior shows up. But that seems to have the new update as well as the artbook so the content seems to be mixed. Should I write to support?
Yes, please :)

bratmaxe: The 2013er Shadow Warrior is missing the Linux-'Tag', so it does not show up when filtering for 'linux' in the search box on the shelf.

Account refresh did not work for me either, btw...
The tag should be fixed in about 5 or so minutes. That one was on me :P

shmerl: Thanks! Was delay with the Linux version caused by GOG QA ironing out issues, or developers not submitting it to GOG right away?
It was a case of a lot of devils in a lot of details :P

DyNaer: Windows XP doesn't supports DX11 , so what you said is somewhat incorrect.
avatar
MarkoH01: Ähm...we are saying the same so why is my statement (DX11 won't work on XP) wrong and yours (WinXP does not support DX11) not?
The DX9 version is available now, Marko :) The DX11 installer is kept separate and the game is labelled as being a DX11 game on the shelf (once it appears for everyone).

Tannath: Also Judas, didn't the Viscera Cleanup Detail use to come bundled in a standard GOG installer? Now it's a zip file with a third-party installer. Is this intended?
Yes, it is.

RadonGOG: BTW: Support isn´t a help right now, recommended me to visit the refresh-link...
...I guess that this is exactly what everybody around did numerous times!

Atlantico: Ugh, I really don't want to contact customer support just to have them telling me to refresh my account which I have done 5 times already...
Then don't :)

All I can say right now is that we are working on getting this issue fixed once and for all for everyone :) Unfortunately, I do not have an ETA but I hope it will be very soon. The silver lining in this cloud is that we do know who is to blame for this and that would be...me as I tried to take a shortcut where I shouldn't have with the intent to get out an update that everyone's been waiting for so long.

seppelfred: Please don't take the criticism personal! We're just a bunch of enthusiastic nerds with no patience. I really appreciate this site and your work.
I am not :) Just letting you guys know who to yell at about this update :P

RadonGOG: Does it have something to do with the new Galaxy-Update?
It´s awesome BTW, my first comment through GalaxyCommunity/ Forum Stuff! :)
Nah, nothing to with the Galaxy update :) Just something on the part of the back end I work on, basically I dun goofed and that's all :)

MarkoH01: (I was not asked but I'd like to answer anyway)
The shelf is nice but it would look more real if there were also wood in the background like in the library.
Then you would't see all that nice background art our designers make :)

Hi all,

So, you remember that pesky Shadow Warrior 2013 update fiasco? Yes, well, it appears to have been fixed :) So, the old gamecard with all of the reviews and GOGmixes and such is back so you should see a proper "Owned" on the game if you've already bought it, the DirectX 11 version is now properly accessible after you refresh your account :)

Please note that if you are on Windows XP that the non-DX11 Windows version of Shadow Warrior 2013 does NOT contain version 1.5.0 of the game. The DX11 Windows version has the latest version of the game.

Another thing: the Mac and Linux versions are at version 1.5.0 so non-Windows users should be all good to go :)

If you are experiencing any more weirdness with Shadow Warrior 2013, please do not hesitate to contact our absolutely smashing Support department so that we can properly investigate the matter at hand :)

classic-gamer: I downloaded it last weekend (v2.2.0.9, DX11 wasn't available in my library), today I can download v2.2.0.1. Which one is the right one and newest for WinXP?
An will a german DX11 version follow?
2.2.0.1 is the newest Windows XP-compatible version.

The DX11 version is the one with the black cover and has the following offline files:

setup_shadow_warrior_dx11_2.0.0.1.exe
setup_shadow_warrior_dx11_2.0.0.1-1.bin
setup_shadow_warrior_dx11_2.0.0.1-2.bin

As for German being available, the installers contain all of the languages listed on the game card and those should be available via the game's own Options menu :)

Protera: It's the same for me. The installer it wants to download is 2.2.0.9, and I don't have the second box for the DX11 version that other people are describing.

Actually, why isn't there a patch download for 1.5? I'd really rather not have to redownload 8GB just to get the latest version.

EDIT: Just tried downloading the version that I can see in Galaxy (and on the site), and internally it's version 1.1.2 according to the _version console command. Why am I not seeing the new version? :\

EDIT 2: I've contacted support, hopefully they'll be able to get back to me about this soon.

fossilfern: Did they get back to you ? I still have nothing on my shelf.
