SEGA's legendary ninja returns in SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance, and this time, he’s bringing hand-drawn heat and modern Metroidvania flair.
MonsterVine: "SEGA's Summer Game Fest 2025 lineup features Demon Slayer: Hinokami Chronicles 2, Shinobi: Act of Vengeance, and Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds—three hands-on demos that span anime action, retro beat-’em-ups, and customizable kart racing."
Biggest mistake this game will make is relying on Sonic characters after Sonic Adventure no one knows. Then selling SEGA nostalgia DLC characters from other games after release. People want a SEGA All Stars game using SEGA characters and stages.
The Outerhaven goes hands-on with Shinobi: Art of Vengeance at Summer Game Fest 2025. Sega’s legendary ninja series returns, and it’s better than ever thanks to the modernized updates, fantastic 2D artwork, and fun gameplay mechanics.
The latest Shinobi is a challenging but ultimately incredible platformer
I heard this game was like 9/10
