Created in collaboration with Lizardcube, the studio behind the acclaimed Streets of Rage 4, SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance follows longtime series protagonist and master of the ninja arts, Joe Musashi, who arrives home from a previous adventure to find his village burned to the ground and his clan turned into stone.

Rife with multiple paths to discover or unlock and packed with smooth, satisfying gameplay, SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance will have players attacking and reacting on the move— and keep them coming back for more.
SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance launches on the 29th of August 2025, is available for pre-order on PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch right now and includes the Original Arcade Outfit, inspired by Joe’s debut appearance in arcades, and Fortune Hunter Amulet, granting additional gold in combat.
