Team Ninja has revealed some exciting new details for their upcoming PS3/Xbox 360 port for Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge. The biggest addition thus far to the game is the inclusion of 100 Ninja Trials, all increasingly difficult as you progress. One said challenge includes taking on two Regents of the Mask simultaneously. Have fun mulling over that, and check out the new screenshots below.
As for the weapons: Ryu will have new weapons and upgrades including Dual Swords, ball-and-chains attached to the Lunar Staff when it’s fully upgraded and even the ability to “pole vault” on enemies using the scythe of the Kusari-gama to maim enemies again and again.
Cicada Surge is one of the new Ninpo and can be used even when taking damage. The three kunoichi each have their own unique abilities as well, including Ayane’s Phantom Spead, Momiji’s naginata and Kasumi’s Mugen Tenshin attacks. Of course, to unlock Kasumi, you’ll need to clear Story Mode first.
