At Xbox Japan’s Fall Press Conference today, they unveiled their new “cinematic action” game, Ninja Blade. With Itagaki-san leaving Tecmo, Microsoft realized they were short one ninja game. Developer From Software, creators of the Armored Core series, should make an easy transition from third-person shooter, to third-person slicer. The debut teaser trailer shows a ninja descending from an aircraft into Tokyo. Meanwhile, the Ryu Hayabusa wannabe is filleting winged demon monsters. With such little shown of the game, I’m wondering how it will differ from the Ninja Gaiden games.
