As a die-hard gamer, I couldn’t contain my excitement when, hand in hand with the unveiling of Ninja Gaiden 4, they dropped the news about Ninja Gaiden 2 Black! Essentially, it’s a fresh, breathtaking revamp using Unreal Engine 5, bringing back to life the iconic 2008 action title that we all cherished.
To put it straightforwardly, it appears you’ve presented us with a conundrum. Our assessment of Ninja Gaiden 2 Black for PS5, which we published, was somewhat divided. We admired Koei Tecmo’s attempt to modernize the game’s appearance, but we found ourselves hesitant about the hack-and-slash gameplay in today’s context.
In simpler terms, “Ninja Gaiden 2 Black, despite being enjoyable, appears dated due to repetitive gameplay and lingering issues from the less refined PS3 era. We give it a ‘not bad,’ rating of 6/10.
Still, Ninja Gaiden 2 Black is our Game of the Month for January 2025. Congrats!
Original Story: It’s been a long time coming, but our official Game of the Month series is back!
These pieces are titled as such because they offer a glimpse into the past, focusing on highlighting the top PlayStation 5 games from the previous month. However, we rely on your valuable input to decide our Game of the Month champion.
2025’s January didn’t see an overwhelming number of new releases, as most major premieres were scheduled for February and March. However, it still offered a taste of quality content.
Dynasty Warriors saw a highly successful return with the release of Dynasty Warriors: Origins, an installment that earned widespread acclaim and appreciation from its dedicated fanbase.
Simultaneously, Wuthering Waves emerged as a serious contender against games like Genshin Impact – a popular, free-to-play action RPG with a massive production budget.
Instead, let’s make sure we don’t bypass the upcoming titles such as Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector and Tails of Iron 2: Whiskers of Winter – these are follow-ups from indie developers that build upon their successful forerunners.
Talking about sequels, the latest installment in the Sniper Elite series, titled Sniper Elite: Resistance, was released only a week ago. However, it has been creating quite a stir and is being praised as another high-quality addition to the historical shooter genre.
