Ninja Gaiden 4 marks the long-awaited return of Team Ninja’s legendary action series, rebuilt from the ground up for PlayStation 5 with help from PlatinumGames. Set after the events of Ninja Gaiden 3, the story introduces a new protagonist named Yakumo, a mysterious young ninja who rises to confront a spreading darkness threatening the world. Alongside him stands the iconic Ryu Hayabusa, whose experience and power play a vital role in the unfolding battle.
The game blends fast-paced, punishing combat with modern visuals and fluid motion. Players can seamlessly switch between Yakumo and Ryu in certain missions, combining agility and brute strength to overcome powerful enemies. Combat remains precise and skill-based, emphasizing perfect timing, combos, and weapon mastery.
Built for the PS5, Ninja Gaiden 4 runs at 4K resolution with up to 120 FPS, enhanced loading speeds, and full DualSense controller support for adaptive triggers and haptic feedback. Environments range from neon-lit cityscapes to ancient temples and corrupted realms, each crafted with cinematic detail.
Available in Standard and Deluxe Editions, the game offers additional skins, weapons, and in-game bonuses for collectors. Ninja Gaiden 4 delivers a brutal yet beautiful revival of one of gaming’s most revered action franchises.
