Team Ninja will release a Ninja Gaiden 2 Black update in mid February to make “balance adjustments” and add “additional features.” The update was announced on X/Twitter but little was said about what it includes specifically.

The remake released as part of a concentrated effort from the Japanese publisher to put Ninja Gaiden back in the limelight. Later this year, a full-blown sequel named Ninja Gaiden 4 will also launch on the PS5, with development already 70-80% complete.

Ninja Gaiden 2 Black is available now, offering up a stunning Unreal 5 character action game. Here's how it holds up to Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 and the original.

The developers of Ninja Gaiden 2 Black release the first update for the action game, and hint that the title will receive more patches soon.

If you haven't already given this latest version of Ninja Gaiden 2 a go, you can purchase it from the Microsoft Store or download it on Xbox Game Pass. As for the fourth entry, it's targeting a Fall 2025 release and has apparently been in the pipeline for quite some time now.

Ninja Gaiden 2 has mostly been a big hit for Team Ninja, but it seems that the team's work isn't quite done. It recently confirmed that a big update for the game is planned for mid-February that will add "additional features".
