Shueisha Games and ACQUIRE announce co-op stealth action game Yakoh Shinobi Ops for PS5, PC

I’m so excited! Shueisha Games and ACQUIRE just revealed Yakoh Shinobi Ops, a new game where you play as four different ninja working together! It’s a stealth action game, so think sneaking around and being super sneaky with your friends. It’s coming to PlayStation 5 and PC (on Steam) in 2027, which feels like a long wait, but I’m already hyped!

Here is an overview of the game, via Shueisha Games:

About

Sneak in, mislead your enemies, and stay alive. In this challenging stealth-action game, you and your team of four Shinobi must cooperate to overcome overwhelming odds and escape a deadly situation.

What is Yakoh Shinobi Ops?

Four Shinobi lurk in the darkness. They silently dash across the land like shadows in the night.

What will your team of ninjas find when their mission is complete? Will they reach safety, or face deadly consequences? Skilled ninjas don’t always need to fight to win. Focus on stealth and trickery to outsmart your opponents.

Relentless enemies are chasing you. Your only chance of success is to evade them completely. A mission isn’t finished until the ninja returns safely.

ACQUIRE, the studio famous for creating stealth action games, has partnered with SHUEISHA GAMES to develop a brand-new four-player ninja game. Get ready for a fresh take on classic shinobi stealth action!

Blend Into the Night and Infiltrate Enemy Territory

Your mission will send you deep into enemy territory, filled with guards and dangerous traps. Success depends on close teamwork and each member using their unique skills.

Move as the shadows.

Synchronize with your fellow Shinobi and fade into the darkness to avoid detection.

Even a small mistake can be fatal for a ninja. Explore for hints and venture into the heart of the enemy’s fortress.

Use Unique Ninjutsu to Overcome the Impossible

Each ninja possesses a special ability. These can include things like grappling hooks for reaching higher areas, breaking through walls to create new routes, using smokescreens to help teammates, or employing flash grenades to confuse enemies.

Every ninja needs to know what they’re supposed to do and work seamlessly with the team. Together, a group of four can achieve much more than any individual. Keep moving forward!

Avoid the Specter of Death to Return Alive

Simply finishing the mission isn’t enough. A true shinobi must return alive. Avoid death at all costs and fight to escape. Work with your team and use everything you have to survive—that’s the path of the shinobi.

Escape the Keen Gaze of the Undying “Hunters”

Directly confronting the “Hunters” will almost certainly kill your Shinobi. To succeed in your mission, you must avoid them. This challenging chase offers a stealth experience that’s truly unique.
