The series that set the bar for hack and slash comes back with its speed intact and a new generation to convince.

Fast, and unforgiving

The high-speed combat that made the name is the whole point again: styled up, brutal, and built to be learned rather than brute-forced.

Legacy and something new

Ryu is here, and so is Yakumo, and the game is deliberately pitched at both the people who wore out the old ones and the people arriving fresh.

What Deluxe adds

The base game plus the future gameplay content The Two Masters, the Traditional Dark Blue and Legendary Black Falcon Ryu skins, the Blade of the Archfiend weapon skin, the Divine Chimera and Raven Master Yakumo skins and the Divine Chimera weapon set, 50,000 NinjaCoin and a pile of in-game items including Life Elixirs, Incense of Rebirth and Kongou Iron Brew.
