As a seasoned gamer who’s been around since the days of the original Ninja Gaiden, I must admit that the announcement of Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound has sent chills down my spine! It feels like coming home after a long journey, and it’s even sweeter knowing that this time, we’re not just reminiscing about the good old days but are actually getting a brand-new adventure.

2024’s Game Awards not only honored the top games of the current year but also served as a stage for numerous games to unveil their plans for the following year. Among the highly anticipated games, Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound undeniably stirred up enthusiasm among longtime fans for the upcoming release.

Title of the series, Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound, has been released by developers The Game Kitchen, who are also known for Blasphemous. Unlike its previous title Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z, Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound is returning to 2D side-scrolling action gameplay.
