Ninja Gaiden 4 release date set for 21 October

Mark of the ninja... and mark your calendars.

The Ninja Gaiden 4 release date has been set for 21 October, Microsoft and PlatinumGames today announced at Xbox’s Summer Game Fest livestream.

The legendary ninja action franchise returns in Ninja Gaiden 4, a high-octane fusion of Team Ninja’s signature combat and PlatinumGames’ dynamic flair,” Microsoft said on its blog.

“The trailer that debuted during the show provides a deeper look at Yakumo, a young ninja prodigy, and an array of new weapons at his disposal as he battles through hordes of enemies.”

“From seamless weapon switching and obliteration techniques to the explosive return of Bloodbind Ninjutsu and Ninpo arts, the trailer teases a brutal, stylish evolution of the series,” Microsoft continued. “With a sneak peek at new characters like Seori, massive boss battles, the mysterious connection to the legendary Ryu Hayabusa, and a near-future Tokyo struggling in the grips of an overwhelming evil, Ninja Gaiden 4 is set to deliver a legacy reborn.”

Expect Ninja Gaiden 4 on Windows PC via Steam, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, and PS5 from 21 October. It’s also available via Xbox Game Pass and Xbox Play Anywhere.
