Tecmo Koei has officially launched Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 Plus for the PlayStation Vita. The handheld port of Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 for the PS3, itself a port of Ninja Gaiden 2 for the Xbox 360, will be arriving at UK retail on March 1st. It will also be available for digital download on PSN the same day.
Though a lot less violent and gory than the original Ninja Gaiden 2, Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 Plus will feature lots of additional content to go with its release. Players will be able to select additional characters including, but not limited to, Momiji, Ayane, Rachel and Sonia.
Aside from new touchscreen controls, there will also be a plethora of new modes like the super easy difficulty of Hero Mode; Ninja Race, where players will compete to finish a stage in the shortest time while fighting enemies; and Tag Mission, where two players can team up against enemies and utilize Dual Ninpo attacks.
