Shinobi Art of Vengeance (PlayStation 5)

Hello to all retro gaming fans and PS5 action game enthusiasts! The SEGA legend makes a grand return on PlayStation 5 with Shinobi Art of Vengeance. If you experienced the golden age of arcade games, this title will take you back to your childhood, but with a spectacular modernization. We find what made the franchise successful: frenetic hack and slash, precise platforming jumps, and a unique visual style that pays homage to the classics while innovating. Get ready for a demanding and ultra-satisfying adventure.

The game stands out with incredible replayability and deep customization of your ninja. Progression is paced by acquiring new powers and equipment that constantly open up new ways to play and explore the levels. Simply put, you never want to put down the controller.

What really blew me away:

• An ultra-fast-paced 2D platform gameplay with a combat system offering nearly limitless combinations.
• A unique artistic style entirely hand-drawn, a true visual achievement.
• The progression system with amulets to enhance your abilities and Ninja tools (Ningi) to discover secrets.
• The bonus content included: the original arcade costume and the fortune hunter amulet upon purchase, a real plus for purists.

In short, Shinobi Art of Vengeance is an excellent PS5 acquisition for fans of challenges and modernized retro video games. The team behind Streets of Rage 4 has struck again by respecting the legacy while breathing new life into this mythical franchise. A true breath of fresh air... and shurikens.
