Ninja Gaiden 4 Reviews
Ninja Gaiden 4 is a great return for the series. Its strong level design and fast, fluid combat make it a very satisfying experience for hack and slash fans.

Ninja Gaiden 4 returns with a vengeance. With PlatinumGames at the helm, Combat is the best Ninja Gaiden has ever been, bringing back the challenging but satisfying gameplay that was missing from vanilla Ninja Gaiden 3, with blazing fast combat which includes dozens of heads and limbs that go flying as you slash through enemies in oh so satisfying ways with the variety of Devil May Cry-like weapons at your disposal. It’s not all good. In a medium where Ichiban Kasuga can carry the Like a Dragon torch just as well, Ninja Gaiden 4’s new protagonist, Yakumo, feels like a downgrade to Ryu and feels shoehorned into the spotlight. This is somewhat compensated for by Yakumo’s cast of characters, with whom he interacts throughout the story, but he still feels like an uninteresting character whose uncaring edginess serves as a crutch for his character development. Overall, Ninja Gaiden 4 is still a great game to play, and I hope this new Ninja Gaiden connection for Team Ninja and PlatinumGames is the start of a new trilogy.
"A Successful Return of a Legendary Title" Ninja Gaiden 4 is more than just a return; it's a rebirth of one of the greatest action franchises. Team Ninja and PlatinumGames have redefined precise, masterful combat, delivering an experience that blends Japanese rigor with modern cinematic flair. It's a game that rewards skill and punishes complacency, restoring action to its original place in an age of simplification.
