Ninja Gaiden: New Video Footage

Check out the brand new trailer from TGS along with some new gameplay footage courtesy of Itagaki-san. Plus some new screens.

Anticipation for Ninja Gaiden keeps rising. It could be thanks to Team Ninja leader Tomonobu Itagaki's caginess surrounding the project; nobody has played the game outside of Team Ninja. But those lucky enough have seen the game in action, played by Itagaki-san himself, on several occasions.

First at E3 back in May, then at a 'Developer Unplugged' session at X03 a few weeks ago - and finally at the Tecmo booth at last weekend's Tokyo Game Show. What you see is enough to whet any gamer's appetite.

Quite simply, it looks fantastic. Lead character Ryo Hayabusa knows no limit to his ninja mastery, swift in combat like you wouldn't believe.

He can take on anyone from the mortal henchman to demon-like monsters who stand several storeys high. And there are more bad-ass enemies in store for him.

You can see a lot of the nasty surprises in store for Hayabusa in the new trailer, which was revealed at TGS for the first time. Be sure to take a look as we wait for the game's release late this year.
