Overview

Shadow: War of Succession, known in Japan as Shadow Warriors, is a 2D crime-themed fighting game developed by Tribeca Digital Studios (Company) and published by The 3DO Company (Company) (and by Tandamp;amp;amp;E Soft in Japan) for the 3DO (Platform) on September 1994.

A fighting game similar to the 1992 arcade game Mortal Kombat (Game) (with digitized actors and a fatality system), Shadow takes place in the criminal underground of New York City (Location), as seven combatants join an underground tournament in order to become the new kingpin of the world's largest criminal organization (the Syndicate of Hate, Anarchy, Destruction, and Organized Warfare, or S.H.A.D.O.W.) after the leader's assassination.

Riggs Riddick - One of the organization's top drug dealers before being executed due to greed, only to get a second chance at life by making a deal with the devil.
Gabrielle St. John - The organization's top bodyguard prior to the leader's death, entering the contest to restore her reputation.
Anvil Stiles - A Navy SEAL who enters the contest hoping to shed light on the fate of his brother, who worked for the organization before his disappearance.
