Supreme Warrior is a full-motion video fighting game. The game, or interactive movie, is set in China hundreds of years ago. You are tasked with protecting half of a magical mask. The wearer of the mask will be granted untold power. Unfortunately, the villainous Wang Tu has the other half of the mask and wants your half badly. So, you must fight off Wang Tu's minions, and eventually Fang Tu himself.
The gameplay in Supreme Warrior consists of digitized video with interactive elements. At many points during the video, you can unleash a punch, kick, or block. If your timing is correct, you inflict damage on your opponent. If your timing is off, your opponent hurts you.
A SEGA Saturn version was in development, but was ultimately cancelled.
Film location
The video for Supreme Warrior was shot in Hong Kong at the Shaw Brothers' film studio, where many classic kung fu movies were made in the '70s and even reused a few of the same sets.
Game footage
Portions of the game footage were used in a made-for-TV movie called Maximum Surge, also released on DVD by York Entertainment under the name Game Over. The movie also used footage from Corpse Killer, Prize Fighter, and Quarterback Attack, all FMV games created by Digital Pictures.
