Does Ninja Gaiden still work in 2025, in a world where soulslikes dominate the high-skill action game subgenre? I played Ninja Gaiden 4 for the first time last weekend, and my answer is unequivocally, yes, absolutely, 1000%, Ninja Gaiden not only still works in 2025, but it is a high-speed, stylish breath of fresh air. It was my favorite thing I played amongst all of the games I covered at this past weekend’s various showcases, and as someone who considers Ninja Gaiden Black the finest action game ever made, I left incredibly happy.
