Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus Gets Release Date and New Screens

Ready yourself Ninjas, the eagerly anticipated Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus has finally gotten a release date for the PS Vita alongside some glorious new screens.

The worldwide acclaimed action hit Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus  that was developed for the PlayStation®3 is back and better than ever on the PlayStationVita. Combining the high speed unique action of Ninja Gaiden with the exciting new features of the PlayStation Vita console, including the touchscreen, gyro sensor, and the rear touch pad, Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus will become the definitive package for fans and action gamers worldwide. Toggling between 1st and 3rdperson views, using the gyro sensor to target your enemies and shoot projectiles, and launching stronger Ninpo using the rear touch pad are only a few of the thrilling additions to the game.****

Whether players are long-time experts or newbies to the fierce world of Ryu Hayabusa, they can relive the story from the beginning, enjoying a variety of play styles – Hero, Normal and Hard and even more. The Hero mode makes flashy weapon combat an ease, as it gives players automatic guard and evasion assists. It also allows players to execute enhanced Ninpo techniques through simple controls, giving novice players a chance to easily enjoy the rich story. Hardcore veterans are in for classic Ninja Gaiden challenge in the Normal and Hard styles, along with even more difficulties for those hard-core Ninjas out there!

[quote]“The Ninja Gaiden series lends itself to a great experience on this amazing new platform, we’re confident that gamers, both our fans and those new to the series, will find Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus to be a thrilling and challenging experience that lives up to the spirit of what the series is best known for while offering a host of new and portable gameplay mechanics” – Yosuke Hayashi, Studio Head of Team NINJA.  [/quote]

Coupled with this is an array of Ninja Trials which will test the might of the toughest Ninja. These sub-missions will have a multitude of difficulties and unique mission content- such as (among other) only using projectile weapons. The Mission Mode from the Sigma series is now bigger and better than ever!

Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus will be reborn on PlayStation® Vita on February 22nd 2012. Until then you’ll have to be content hiding in the shadows and stalking your prey silently whilst checking out the new screens below!
