Shadow of the Ninja – Reborn revives a classic on modern consoles!
Natsume Atari Inc. and ININ are pleased to unveil their latest project, Shadow of the Ninja – Reborn. This upcoming title is the fourth installment in the 16-bit style remake series by TENGO PROJECT, following the success of their previous release, Pocky & Rocky Reshrined, which achieved global sales exceeding 150,000 units. The original game made its debut on the Japanese Nintendo Family Computer in 1990, developed by Natsume Inc. Known as SHADOW OF NINJA in North America and BLUE SHADOW in Europe, it stood out as a refined action game of its era and laid the foundation for Natsume’s prominence in action-oriented titles. Now, this beloved classic is being revitalized through an entirely new production.
The acclaimed 2D ninja action side-scrolling experience, featuring engaging simultaneous two-player gameplay, returns in this modern remake. Players can select from male or female characters and collaborate to conquer challenging adversaries. ININ plans to present the upcoming game at the Tokyo Game Show 2023, scheduled to take place from September 23 to September 24 at Makuhari Messe. Attendees will have the exclusive opportunity to engage with the game through hands-on experiences before its official release on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam. Pricing is yet to be confirmed.
