Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound – Nintendo Switch (2025)

Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound is a high-octane 2D side-scrolling action game developed by The Game Kitchen (the team behind Blasphemous) that serves as a bridge between the classic 8-bit era and the modern 3D series. Set during the events of the original 1988 NES title, the story follows a young ninja named Kenji Mozu and the skilled assassin Kumori as they defend the Hayabusa Village from a demonic invasion while Ryu Hayabusa is away in America. Gameplay masterfully blends the precision platforming of the retro originals with the fast-paced, rhythmic combat of the modern era, featuring a unique “Guillotine Boost” for aerial mobility and “Hypercharge” attacks to shred through armoured foes. Upon its release, the game received strong critical acclaim, with reviewers praising its stunning “modern-retro” pixel art and fluid controls, though some early Switch players noted minor performance hurdles that were largely addressed in post-launch updates.
