Ryu’s triumphant return to the gaming landscape has sparked excitement among fans and newcomers alike. While the franchise celebrated its 30th anniversary with the release of Ninja Gaiden 2 Black last year, the anticipation for a brand-new installment is palpable. Ninja Gaiden 4 promises to deliver an exhilarating experience, especially for those who enjoy the convenience of Game Pass.
Is Ninja Gaiden 4 on Game Pass?
Indeed, Ninja Gaiden 4 will be available on PC and Ultimate Game Pass from day one. Players can look forward to accessing it on PC, Xbox Series X/S, and Xbox Cloud. Additionally, it will be purchasable on Steam and the PlayStation Store.
Microsoft has officially confirmed Ninja Gaiden 4’s inclusion in its October release lineup, positioning it as the standout title of the month. It will be accompanied by other notable releases, including Obsidian’s The Outer Worlds 2 and Double Fine’s Keeper.
In a delightful twist, Ninja Gaiden 2 Black will also join the Game Pass lineup, allowing subscribers to revisit this classic. Our impressions of Ninja Gaiden 2 Black highlight it as “the prime opportunity to experience Team Ninja’s mid-2000s reboot in all its glory (and infamy) before we see the modern strides of Ninja Gaiden 4.” With the addition of a new game plus mode that allows players to carry over unlockables into a fresh playthrough, it comes highly recommended.
