– Focuses on three strokes concept first revealed at E3
– First stroke represents the katana
– Second stroke represents consequence
– New demo shown at the conference
– New Play Style system
– This system accommodates experienced players and those who aren’t so familiar with Ninja Gaiden
– Two playing styles for the system: Ninja (focuses on action gameplay) and Hero (focuses on story, auto-guard and auto-evade support)
– Demo involved Hayabusa taking on enemies through the streets of London
– Won’t use the same kind of dismemberment system the past games have used because the developers wanted players to feel what it’s like to “cut someone down”
– Developers didn’t shy away from making the game violent and wanted players to feel the consequence of this violence
– Concept for online play: “a world of ninjas”
– Eight-player multiplayer mode
– Challenge other ninjas in the world to become number one
– Will feature close-combat fighting, online multiplayer, and both cooperative and multiplayer experiences
