The upcoming NINJA GAIDEN: Master Collection brings together NINJA GAIDEN Sigma, NINJA GAIDEN Sigma 2, and NINJA GAIDEN 3: Razor’s Edge -- in a collection tailor made for those looking for challenging ninja-based action. The first game in the new trilogy, developed by Team Ninja and led by veteran designer Tomonobu Itagaki, is something of an action classic.
Headed to PC, the collection will support up to 4K 60fps play though that will of course be dependent of your hardware setup. The release is also coming to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S. Next-gen support looks to be via backwards compatibility so no word on any potential enhancements there.
In terms of new stuff, in addition to taking control of Ryu, four female characters from the series -- Ayane, Rachel, Momiji, Kasumi -- will be playable.
The NINJA GAIDEN: Master Collection brings the renowned action games to PC and consoles, allowing fans to once-again experience the tale of “super ninja” Ryu Hayabusa as he battles deadly fiends causing chaos around the world. NINJA GAIDEN Sigma, originally released in 2007, set the standard of high-speed action for the series – introducing dual-wielding weapons, and a Mission Mode alongside its gripping Story Mode. NINJA GAIDEN Sigma 2, originally released in 2009, continued Hayabusa’s journey alongside characters Ayane, Rachel, and Momiji, with four difficulty levels testing player’s battle techniques with every heart-stopping fight. The latest entry, NINJA GAIDEN 3: Razor’s Edge, originally released in 2012, upped the challenge with powerful new enemies and fiercely violent depictions, as well as bringing Kasumi into the action, making it the series’ most alluring white-knuckle experience to date.
Publisher Koei Tecmo is also releasing a Digital Deluxe Edition that comes with a 70-page digital art book and a soundtrack that sports over 180 tracks.
