Pre-TGS 2007: Ninja Gaiden 2 Officially Announced
News from Microsoft's pre-TGS 2007 press event.
September 11, 2007 - Team Ninja boss Tomonobu Itagaki took the stage at a pre-TGS Microsoft event in Tokyo to announce Ninja Gaiden 2, the first real sequel since the original Xbox release. The sequel will be exclusive to Xbox 360 in 2008 according to Microsoft. In a TGS trailer released for the game, we find that Microsoft is tied to the game, and Tecmo's logo strangely absent. Naturally this is big news for Xbox fans.
Team Ninja's Ninja Gaiden premiered on Microsoft's Xbox in 2004. Ninja Gaiden Black, and updated version, was released for the same console in 2005. Just months ago, Ninja Gaiden Sigma was released for Sony's PlayStation 3. All previous versions were published by Tecmo.
According to our own Anoop Gantayat who saw a live demo of Ninja Gaiden 2, the action is just as frenetic as before. "The gameplay is so fast that it's hard to watch. Hard to keep up with," says Gantayat. "Lots of blood. Bodies getting chopped in half. Ryu pins enemies on the ground, thrusts his sword in, and they explode!"
The release date for Ninja Gaiden 2 is currently set for 2008.
