Tecmo Koei Confirms Ninja Gaiden 3 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360

Tecmo Koei has confirmed its plans to release Ninja Gaiden 3 on both the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 as a part of its E3 2011 lineup of games. The publisher says that the new game will "redefine the action genre."

Players will step back into the shoes of Ryu Hayabusa, the iconic hero of the Ninja Gaiden series. Ninja Gaiden 3 promises a heightened feeling and experience during close combat fighting, and will also feature online multiplayer, both co-op and competitive, that will add a completely new experience to the Ninja Gaiden series.

The Nintendo Wii U will be getting a spinoff title called Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge.
