Ninja Gaiden 4 announced, Ninja Gaiden 2 remaster released

Developer_Direct showcased more than just DOOM: The Dark Ages; the highly anticipated Ninja Gaiden 4 also made a splash. Set for an autumn 2025 release, the game promises a thrilling return to the action-packed slasher gameplay fans love.

The reveal trailer highlighted Ryu Hayabusa's return as the protagonist, navigating a stunning cyberpunk city perpetually drenched in toxic rain. New mechanics, such as zip-lining across the environment using wires and rails, were showcased, adding a fresh dimension to the classic Ninja Gaiden formula. Players will confront waves of genetically modified soldiers and terrifying creatures in their quest to break an ancient curse plaguing the megacity.

Adding to the excitement, a significant remaster of Ninja Gaiden 2, already available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S (including Game Pass), was also announced. Team Ninja's UE5 port boasts completely overhauled character models, visual effects, and environments, incorporating elements from later games in the series and adding three new playable characters.

Koei Tecmo's efforts on both Ninja Gaiden 4 and the Ninja Gaiden 2 remaster are undeniably impressive and deserve significant community recognition.
