Ninja Gaiden 4: The Two Masters DLC Launches in Early 2026, Includes New Story and Post-Game Content

by

I’m so excited! Ninja Gaiden 4 is coming out really soon, and it sounds like there’s a ton to do – they’re saying around 15 to 20 hours of story stuff, plus challenges and a super hard Master Ninja difficulty. But that’s not all! They’re already planning post-launch DLC called The Two Masters, which is awesome news for fans like me.

During a conversation on the Official Xbox Podcast, Yuji Nakao, a producer and director at PlatinumGames, and Masazaku Hirayama, director at Team Ninja, revealed the game will be released in early 2026. The update introduces new weaponry for both Ryu and Yakumo; Ryu will gain a pair of claw-like gauntlets, while Yakumo will wield a large scythe.

Each one has unique strengths and many different gameplay features for players, but there’s more to it than that. The Two Masters also adds new story sections that take place after the main game, showing events from both characters’ points of view. Fans will also enjoy extra challenges that are separate from the original game’s content.

“There’s a wealth of content for players to explore, and we’re excited to reveal more information as soon as it’s ready,” stated Hirayama.

The Two Masters downloadable content comes with the Deluxe Edition, priced at $89.99. Ninja Gaiden 4 will be released on October 21st for Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC. It will also be available to play immediately with a Game Pass subscription.
