Story

Our story begins when Ryu Hayabusa journeys to America to honor his father's will. While he is away, the barrier between the human and the demon worlds suddenly shatters, unleashing a terrifying army upon the Hayabusa Village, which now faces an unprecedented threat in Ryu's absence. To stand against this new threat, Kenji Mozu, a young ninja from the Hayabusa Village, rises to the challenge! Trained by Ryu, he fights fiercely but soon finds himself in desperate straits. Forced to tap into forbidden power, Kenji sets aside centuries of animosity and forms an alliance with the sinister Black Spider Clan, convinced that combining their souls and skills is the only way to protect the world out of the Demon Lord's grasp!

What is happening now

Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound is a hack-and-slash platformer developed by Dotemu that launched in late July across modern consoles and PC. The game combines the series' fast-paced combat with side-scrolling action, bringing the franchise to indie development. Since release, the game has appeared in Dotemu's promotional efforts, recently featured in an eShop sale covering both Nintendo Switch 2 and the original Switch alongside other published titles. The sale signaled the publisher's push to expand the game's audience across Nintendo's hardware.
