Controllers beware: The much-loved and much-hated Shinobi series is being revived

Wanna play an action platformer about a badass ninja named Joe Musashi? Streets of Rage 4 developer Lizardcube is reviving the much-loved and much-hated Shinobi series this year, as announced by Sega at Sony's recent State of Play. The return of the famous ninja action series will happen this year, on August 29.

2D action platformer Shinobi: Art of Vengeance will focus on speed and precision, having you use sword, thrown daggers, magical ninja arts, and ninja strategies to take down foes as quickly and efficiently as possible. It'll focus on "limitless combos" customized by unlocking magical amulets and using your Ninja tools to uncover new paths.
