The weapons come in the form of a variety of guns such as a revolver, uzi, crossbow, shotgun, flamethrower and occasions of mounted weaponry such as a machine gun in Lo Wang’s underground cave beneath his home, alongside melee combat with various swords available along with a choice of which weapon you start out with from the options menu ranging from your normal katana through to the Nobitsura Kage katana, Zilla Z45 Laser katana and even themed swords from other games such as the Shadow Warrior Classic katana, Hotline Miami katana and a Serious Sam 3 sledgehammer which all have their own unique style to them as well as shuriken blades that can be thrown at enemies, and many more weapons besides. The challenges feature provides players with 53 challenges to overcome ranging from killing 100 enemies with a particular weapon such as using a katana special attack in campaign mode, killing 50 or 100 of a certain enemy type to finding 25 secrets and even destroying 1,000 destructible items in campaign mode, while on the road to completing the game. will receive a katana and a revolver with weapon and ammunition drops arriving periodically and positioned around the environment to help the quest for survival, although there are no weapon upgrades, powers or skills at your disposal unless you earn them within the Survival Mode itself, regardless of what has already been earned in the story campaign. The Survival Mode tasks the player with surviving for as long as humanly possible in order to earn the highest possible total score from surviving as many waves as possible and killing as many enemies in the process as possible too, which is certainly easier than it sounds as hordes of enemies from throughout the game will run straight at the character with the express purpose of killing Lo Wang as quickly as possible with a new wave spawning within seconds of killing the entirety of the previous wave. The Heroic Mode which is another different play through of the story campaign, but this time the ability to save progress is disabled as are mid level checkpoints therefore players will have to approach each level strategically as if Lo Wang dies just once, then they will be returned to the beginning of the current level and have to battle through all of the enemies all over again. The story campaign spans seventeen chapters with a progressively unfolding storyline, while the Ex Mode is a further play through of the story campaign, although players are able to retain all of the powers and skills they have attained throughout the first play through, therefore allowing players to maximise their impact on every enemy across the entirety of the game. There are four game modes including: a Story Campaign, Ex Mode, Heroic Mode and Survival Mode with the Ex Mode and Heroic Mode being unlockables. The story follows Lo Wang who is sent to retrieve a $2 million katana sword by a rich and powerful industrial magnate Orochi Zilla under the express orders of not leaving the premises without the desired object, although Lo Wang unfortunately does not know exactly what he has let himself in for or what is to come.
