    SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance is the all-new 2D action platformer created by Lizardcube, the team behind the hit brawler Streets of Rage 4, and follows the longtime series protagonist and master of the ninja arts, Joe Musashi, who sets off on an epic quest of revenge across a variety of stages and environments. With larger-than-life bosses, a deep combat system, and smooth, satisfying gameplay, SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance will have players attacking and reacting on the move – and then coming back for more.

    In the free demo, players can explore the first stage of the game, Oboro Village, battling enemies and traversing platforming obstacles through stunning hand-drawn environments. Once you’ve conquered the stage, push your skills further by replaying it – aim for the highest score in Arcade Mode and uncover hidden paths. To provide players a more exciting experience, the demo unlocks certain gameplay abilities that are normally obtained later in the full game.

    Digital pre-orders for SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance are now available. Fans who pre-order the digital version of the game will receive a 10% discount, the Original Arcade Outfit, and Fortune Hunter Amulet. Physical pre-orders for SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance Standard Edition are available across the EMEA region for PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
