Xiaolin Showdown is an action-adventure video game based on the Kids WB/CW4Kids cartoon of the same name. It was released on November 14, 2006. Players are able to play as the Xiaolin Apprentices, and one of the game objectives is to get the Shen Gong Wu. It is possible that new Shen Gong Wu were made specifically for this video game. The Shen Gong Wu require the use of "Chi Energy" from the player.
There are 6 playable characters in the game: Omi, Raimundo Pedrosa, Kimiko Tohomiko, Clay Bailey, Jack Spicer and Chase Young, the latter two of which must be unlocked first. When Xiaolin Showdowns take place, the competitors get transported to an arena where they face off in a random mini-game. Master Fung appears in some parts of the game giving tips for the player.
A GameCube version was in development, but was cancelled. This was the last game to be released for the Xbox in Europe.
