The Last Ninja Collection confirmed for Switch
The Last Ninja Collection took to Kickstarter today and almost immediately reached its funding goal. In forty minutes, fans helped raise over £10,000 – and that amount is naturally still rising.
The Last Ninja Collection will contain every Last Ninja title from the Commodore 64, ZX Spectrum, and Commodore Amiga for the first time, including The Last Ninja, Last Ninja 2, Last Ninja 3, and Ninja Remix. Bangkok Knights, International Karate, and International Karate + are also available.
Mark Cale, CEO of System 3, said in a press release: “I’m really excited to bring The Last Ninja Collection to Kickstarter. Before Souls-like was a genre, The Last Ninja defined it, and to bring these titles and more, including the International Karate series to Nintendo Switch and PC is a real salute to Archer Maclean and his legacy. Video games must be preserved at all costs, and I’m thrilled we’re able to lead the way in securing a physical legacy for years to come.”
