May 27, 2004 - In a recent interview with EGM and in an interview with Kikizo Games, Team Ninja head Tomonobu Itagaki confirmed that a sequel to the Xbox-exclusive Ninja Gaiden was indeed a reality. However, Ninja Gaiden 2 would not ship until after Dead or Alive 4 but before Dead or Alive: Code Cronus.

Fans of Team Ninja will be all too familiar with the name Code Cronus, though there remains little actually known about the game. The name, for instance, is just a a code name and not the final production title. A pet project for Itagaki, Code Cronus is not a fighting game or a sports game, but is "a game for fans of Dead or Alive." Cronus is believed by many to be an action RPG. Whatever the case, it would almost certainly ship for Xbox Next, as it likely wouldn't see release until at least 2006 if not later.
When asked about the concept behind Ninja Gaiden 2, Itagaki would only say that it would be along the same lines as the first Xbox title. If you're trying to keep up with the release schedule for Team Ninja games, here's the planned order of release:

Dead or Alive Ultimate - September 2004
Dead or Alive 4 - 2005
Ninja Gaiden 2 - Unknown (2006 likely)
Dead or Alive: Code Cronus - Unknown (2006 or 2007 likely)
