Get ready to shred those enemies to bits because 2025 is the year Ninja Gaiden roars back with a vengeance! The adrenaline kicked in early with Ninja Gaiden 2 Black, a jaw-dropping revival with stunning modern visuals. But hold onto your shurikens, because the standout spectacle was undoubtedly Ninja Gaiden 4—the electrifying sequel fans have been waiting for! Dive into this pulsating entry, available now at Walmart for $49.99.
Ninja Gaiden 4 isn’t just any sequel. It’s a collaboration of titans, with Team Ninja and PlatinumGames crafting an action combat system that’s nothing short of legendary. This time, the iconic Ryu is joined by Yakumo, an equally fierce new protagonist! Master their epic combos as you wreak havoc across a perilous Tokyo, fending off a sinister threat with sheer ninja might.
In our heart-pounding review, we slapped an 8/10 score on it! Here's what we said: “Combat in Ninja Gaiden 4? It's a whole new galaxy of explosive action where few games dare tread. Since Devil May Cry 5, nothing hits as hard. And while the lackluster story, meh level design, and some unfriendly boss fights throw shade on the whole package, there's nothing keeping us from diving back into this slick, action-fueled ride. Imperfections aside, it's the purest thrill since {i}Hi-Fi Rush. Let's pray the next one doesn't take another 13 years!”
