The Ninja Gaiden series has always been violent. Even with Tomonobu Itagaki gone from Team Ninja and off working on Devil’s Third, Ninja Gaiden 3 will be as bloody as ever.
Japanese publication Famitsu has posted a number of screenshots showing Ryu Hayabusa slicing and dicing his enemies. It’s noted by Famitsu that Ryu’s right arm begins to glow red as he kills more enemies. You can see in the screen below that his arm is looking pretty strange; we might learn more about that next week at E3.
