The Shadow Warrior Collection (Xbox One)
A stylish melee-and-guns FPS that swaps the cover-shooter formula for aggressive close-quarters combat. If you've tired of tactical retreats, Shadow Warrior's lo-fi ultraviolence might scratch that itch.
GamerScout Verdict
For action fans who want an FPS that rewards aggressive melee play over cautious gunplay, despite rough stealth sections.

Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About The Shadow Warrior Collection (Xbox One)
I went in expecting another cover shooter and got something way more personality-driven. Shadow Warrior trades positioning and distance for pure forward momentum. You're rewarded for closing gaps and mixing sword slashes with shotgun blasts instead of hanging back. It's crude, loud, and doesn't take itself seriously, the story and characters are B-movie schlock, but that's the point. The combat loop works when you lean into it: parry, execute, reload, repeat. Levels are tight enough that running straight ahead feels less suicidal than it should. Where it stumbles is in pacing and some genuinely rough stealth sections that kill the aggressive vibe. If you want an FPS that remembers melee weapons exist and plays to that strength, this is solid. Just don't expect depth beyond the surface-level fun.
