Ninja Gaiden 4 gets 1 hour of amazing new gameplay; The Ninja team explains the partnership with PlatinumGames

The new media explosion for Ninja Gaiden 4 came out yesterday, and YouTuber Gamersprey has uploaded an hour full of new gameplay without any comments attached. This is a party for the eyes of all fans who are afraid of the franchise is dead. They have the right to believe this, given that the previous entry, Ninja Gaiden 3, was launched in 2012 and received medium reviews for boot.

Now, the action series will return, and do it with a kind of ‘dream collaboration’ between the Ninja historical development team and fellow Japanese Platinumgames developers, also known for well -known action titles such as Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance and Bayonetta franchise.

Speaking of this partnership in an interview with Podcast Iron Lords, the director of the game Masakazu Hirayama from the Ninja Team explained:

Well, for Team Ninja, Ninja Gaiden is an IP and a very important title, so we always want to make a new Ninja Gaiden game. Initially, our company president, Mr. Ono from Team Ninja, and Mr. Inaba from Platinumgames, which is actually from the same generation and has carried out ongoing exchange, discussing whether the two companies can collaborate on something new. Considering that Platinumgames track records are excellent with action games like Nier and Bayonetta, which we are very respectful, we think it will be a big challenge to work together in the title of the new Ninja Gaiden. Furthermore, as you mentioned, with the support of Phil Spencer on Xbox, this project can come together with three -way collaboration.

Announced during the Xbox Direct 2025 developer, Ninja Gaiden 4 is scheduled to be launched on October 21 for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series S | x. On PC and Xbox, it will be available in the first day through the game Pass (games will be published by Xbox Game Studios).
