Team Ninja wants to develop reboots of Ninja Gaiden and Dead or Alive
In fact, as reported by Ruliweb with a new article, Fumihiko Yasuda affirmed during a panel at the G-Star conference , which took place in Busan just in recent days, that the Japanese development team led by him is interested in creating new chapters of the two series above.
A photo containing both classic Team Ninja series was also shown during this panel , along with the title “ The Future of Team Ninja – Reboot of the Popular Series” in Japanese. The well-known online portal Video Games Chronicle then contacted both the development team and the Japanese publisher directly, asking them for a comment on this situation, without however receiving a response yet.
And waiting to see how the situation evolves, we remind you that Tecmo 's action-adventure series hasn't seen a main chapter since Ninja Gaiden 3 , released on the market during 2012 . Yasuda , who is the director of Nioh and its sequel, was a level designer for Ninja Gaiden 2 and directed the third installment in the series, the first since lead creator Tomonobu Itagaki's departure, he said in 2021that he would have liked to make a new chapter of Ninja Gaiden , but without having specific plans about it.
