Ninja Gaiden 4 has shown off the first gameplay of its highest difficulty, and put to rest any fears that its lengthy hiatus would result in nerfed difficulty.
2025 has marked a massive return for Ninja Gaiden between the Unreal Engine 5 remake Ninja Gaiden 2 Black, and the Dotemu / The Game Kitchen 2D throwback Ninja Gaiden Ragebound, both of which have been well received. However, the real test is going to be Ninja Gaiden 4, a proper sequel to the Team Ninja-developed trilogy, after 13 years off the grid.
