Slash A Path Across the Ninja Gaiden Franchise Before It Leaves Game Pass
Although some high-profile titles are joining the Game Pass library in September, several other titles will be to depart before the close of the month.
Action Series Leaving the Service
A trio of prominent installments—Ninja Gaiden Sigma, Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2, and Ninja Gaiden 3 Razor’s Edge—are set to disappear from Game Pass when the month concludes. These titles are the latest ports of the revitalized core franchise and were included in the 2021 Master Collection.
A Legacy of High-Octane Action
Initially launched in arcades and on consoles like the NES, the early Ninja Gaiden games featured 2D action. However, the rebooted franchise transitioned into 3D design and greatly ramped up the challenge level. Additionally, it embraced more intense violence, now grown into a signature element of the series.
Prepare for Ninja Gaiden 4
If you interested in the storyline, the upcoming Ninja Gaiden 4 has been billed as a straight follow-up to Ninja Gaiden 3. That makes the present a perfect time to immerse yourself in the backstory ahead of launch. It is published by Xbox Game Studios and will be available on the service at launch.
This year, players already experienced multiple additional entries: an enhanced version of the second game, along with a nostalgic side game that proved a summer hit.
