Ninja Gaiden 4’s challenging adventure is being bolstered by new DLC next week. On March 4, a content update called The Two Masters will arrive and will add three new chapters to the main campaign.
This DLC takes place after the conclusion of the base campaign. A brief trailer for The Two Masters shows Yakumo and Ryu battling new threats, with each ninja wielding a new weapon: a massive scythe called Solitaire for Yakumo and a pair of bladed gauntlets called Jakotsumon for Ryu. These weapons can be unlocked and used even if you’re in the middle of finishing the original campaign.
The Two Masters will introduce new stages, enemies, and trials along with the Abyssal Road, an endurance-based challenge mode. This challenge features 100 unique combat encounters from the base game and the DLC and introduces new enemy mechanics called Special Blood Essence and Frenzied. The new Trials and Abyssal Road can only be unlocked by completing the DLC’s story missions at any diffculty. The Two Masters will also add quality-of-life improvements, balancing adjustments, bug fixes to elements such as combat responsiveness, and new weapon set customization options.
Downloading The Two Masters will set you back $14.99 and is a free upgrade for owners of the Deluxe Edition. It will be available for all versions of Ninja Gaiden 4 across PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. In the meantime, be sure to check out our review of Ninja Gaiden 4 here.
