Ninja Gaiden hasn’t seen a full release since its third instalment, and that game definitely divided opinions. Personally, Toby loved Ninja Gaiden 3 (He did play Razor’s Edge) and he has been left wanting more of the ridiculous, bloody action the series has become known for. A new Ninja Gaiden probably won’t win any awards, nor will it sell particularly well, but there is a place in his heart for games like it. Devil’s Third was released fairly recently, and that goes someway to scratching the itch for an over-the-top, graphic action game, but it is not as good as Ninja
Tom Lee, Creative Director, Team Ninja: "We’re excited to announce that The Two Masters DLC for Ninja Gaiden 4 will be released to ninjas of all skill levels on March 4, 2026! This story-driven expansion continues Yakumo and Ryu’s battle against fiends that once again threaten to take over the world. After completing the main story, players will unlock new story chapters that push both characters into battles against even deadlier enemies, challenging bosses, and new trials that will test the skills of even the most seasoned master ninja."
VGChartz's Lee Mehr: "Whether cleaving with an axe, slicing with dual daggers, or something else altogether, action games are the go-to for undistilled wish fulfilment; that can come in the form of wiping out legions after leveling up or practicing aerials and precise combos for hours on end. 2025 saw a healthy mix of disparate personalities that capture a certain itch. Not merely satisfied with ports, Nintendo had the foresight to craft a new Hyrule Warriors for Switch 2's launch year; also, Microsoft found some change between the cushions to revive one of the most celebrated action franchises of all time. It truly was an interesting year of resurrected IPs and standard sequels – across the AAA and indie space."
If you like playing as unstoppable warriors and skilled assassins, you won't want to miss these hits of 2025.
NG3 was a disaster.NG2 is still best one to date.
The new Team Ninja doesn't seem like they fully understand what NG is supposed to be in my opinion.
I really disliked the Sigma versions and 3 was just terrible
Ninja Gaiden should most certainly be brought back, always, every-time.
this would be a great addition. same with a new bushido blade and a new shinobi and a new tenchu. we need great ninja games!
