NINJA Gaiden 4 Discussion & Release

Yeah. The gameplay looks awesome though. Brutal weaponry and killing looks very satisfying.
Has anyone factored the timeline?

Here's just the NG4 trailer specifically:
I guess they haven't put out a Japanese dub version of it yet...?

It's probably a placeholder price, but thought it was funny lol.
lmao, damn that tariff + inflation combo! or maybe just getting ahead of the scalpers...
I couldn't help but giggle when I heard the narrator's jab at Vanilla Ninja Gaiden 3 l0l
My little worry about the new game is that playing as Yakumo and Ryu are mission-locked. Unless they both fight the same enemy types, I wish there's an option to fight in Yakumo's levels as Ryu, and vice versa.
That was what I didn't like about the recent Devil May Cry and Bayonetta games. The characters have very different moveset and I like one of them, the other, not much. I don't really enjoy playing as the new characters in those games. Not a lot of guns + melee which what I look for in those games. But that's just me. hahaha
But in NG4, it seems both characters have similar movesets so maybe it's not a big deal.

Lots of press for Ninja Gaiden 4 today! So far these impressions from critics are really positive. My biggest issue with the game is that characters are missing that I would have loved to see return such as: Rachel, Momiji, Ayane, Kasumi and of course we are still wondering where Hayate is.
Gamespot recently gave Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound an 8/10 and they seem to really enjoy NG4. Be sure to check out my review for Ragebound if you haven't here at FSD.

IGN is calling this the final report for the game before release, so I would not expect a lot more press.

There is also a director interview that you don't want to miss spanning over half an hour.

We have more footage thanks to the bilibili.
The rail gameplay reminds me of the Ratchet & Clank games.
From the Gamespot article, I'm glad that after finishing the game, we can play all chapter either as Ryu or Yakumo. Not chapter-locked.

Right… because the annoying swimming was so much better!
Oof… trailer was leaked ahead of Gamescom. Hopefully, nobody gets in trouble for that. New villain is kind of moronic, he looks like that idiot Axel from Kingdom Farts.
Still no demo announcement yet.
