Overall, a solid game. Not a bad story. Action packed. Controls are typical for the genre. I hate the fact Ryu has been downgraded to an afterthought of a character. Because of that, I'm only giving this game 3 stars. Introducing new characters is fantastic. Treating the original character like an unwanted step child and slapping loyal fans in the face in the process- terrible idea. Would not recommend if you're a fan of Ryu Hayabusa. If you don't care, it is worth playing.

Best ninja gaiden so far. Great QoL improvements from previous games. Specially the camera, while still keeping intact what makes Ninja gaiden ninja gaiden, the difficulty and combat

I Love This Game. Very bloody and brutal. Love the special finishing moves also.

The story is lackluster and negligible at best. The gameplay is really enjoyable and responsive making me feel that every time I die for the most part, that the fault is almost entirely my own. The level designs feel dull and bland most of the time with most of them being just flat areas to use as a set up for enemies. If you enjoy challenging mindless combat I recommend playing it. Otherwise I'd suggest to skip out on it and go play Ninja Gaiden 2 instead.

Great, fast paced action game. Been waiting a while for a new Ninja Gaiden and this did not disappoint. If you enjoyed the other games, you will love this one.
