Koei Tecmo shadow dropped Ninja Gaiden 2 Black last week, but it’s committed to continuing to update the PS5 remake.
In a post on X (or Twitter) earlier this week, the publisher said it’s “preparing a patch aimed for release in mid-February with some balance adjustments and additional features”. It added that the update will be based on the “feedback received”.
The remake released as part of a concentrated effort from the Japanese publisher to put Ninja Gaiden back in the limelight. Later this year, a full-blown sequel named Ninja Gaiden 4 will also launch on the PS5, with development already 70-80% complete.
Exactly what additional features Koei Tecmo is plotting for Ninja Gaiden 2 Black remains unclear, but we’ll update as and when further announcements have been made.

Haptic Jiggle?
Is there already a photo mode?
Waiting for a sale on this one before i bite.
Finished this last night amazing game
Ninja Gaiden is absolute nostalgia for me, just the thought that they can update something with a patch is completely foreign, gamer's have it so good nowadays.
Hoping for something fun like additional costumes instead of just fixes. It would be nice if they'd give the same remake treatment to the whole Trilogy but I'll take what i can get. Awesome seeing Ninja gaiden 2 looking this good! Can't freaking wait for Ninja gaiden 4!
They need to bring the experience closer to the original NG 2! And then fix the camera... 😉
Keep the good extra content from sigma but make the enemies more aggressive and more numerous, but with less health!
The game was all about mastering technique and risk/ reward. Every enemy should be absolutely lethal- but so are you! Ryu has incredible speed and skills, so why should it take 5 minutes to batter a grunt? (Exaggeration)
I feel like the new GoW games have this issue, where enemies are so spongey, it doesn't make sense, and makes Kratos look weak in comparison...
I want my screen full of dismembered corpses, and to feel like every combat scenario requires the full application of your ninja skills!
@z0d15g0d - Wouldn't be the first time, Sigma 2 on PS3 used the Sixaxis to jiggle the ladies bewbs.
@Pondo320 - Nowadays? Team Ninja were doing this 20 years ago. Ninja Gaiden on OG Xbox got two Hurricane Pack patches that changed the camera, added new enemies and bosses, intercept counter attacks, updated enemy AI and loads more.
All I would want is the camera to be less 1995. They've made cameras in action games so much better and this remake still feels like early 3D when they were just figuring out what worked and what didn't. This camera does not.
@Truegamer79 Hoping for that also. New costume would be a good addition just to switch it up a bit. Plus, it can be something new only connected to this version. Maybe add boss rush everyone's adding? (Black Myth/Steller Blade etc)
Up the enemy count, bring back the skins from og 2, and make the kunoichi levels separate
Fantastic game. Cannot believe I somehow missed the series in the past. But I was always a PS guy, so when they were only on Xbox I never bothered and then the older ones I missed because I was a wee lad during Nintendo and Genesis days.
I bought this and I'm still total rubbish. Don't remember Hayabusa controlling like a tank though, hard just getting him through a doorway 🤣
They used the Sigma version. I will never love again..
@Overmind Erm, what the sigma?
@Lanmanna
I don't know who Erm is, but what the Sigma indeed
@z0d15g0d "next gen realistic boob jiggle"
