Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 trailer from E3 2009
Tecmo released a new Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 trailer at E3 2009.
In the trailer below you can see lots of gun-toting and ninja-slashing action with a very large focus on Rachel (no that is not a pun. Get your head out of the gutter!). You’ll also get a glimpse of not only Rachel as a playable character but also of the new finishing blow system which allows you to destroy enemies with one hit in dramatic fashion.
The game will also feature Ayane as a playable character and console-Ninja Gaiden newcomer “Momiji” from the DS title Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword.
The biggest new feature of the game however is online co-op play (complete with voice chat) via 10 different stages (with 4 difficulty settings available). Rankings from each mission are also recorded and posted online, where gamers can choose their opponents based on players’ mission stats.
Key features of Ninja Gaiden 2 include:
* New Playable Characters: Ninja Gaiden’s Rachel, Ayane from the Dead or Alive series and Momiji from Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword appear as sexy new playable characters
* Online Co-op: Two people can engage in online co-op play, with voice chat, in 10 different stages (in 4 difficulty settings) to complete special missions. Rankings from each mission are recorded and posted online, where gamers can choose their opponents based on players’ mission stats
* Visual Diversity: Over 30 unique characters, 17 stages with a variety of environments, and a storyline which unfolds in 70 impressive cut-scenes
* New Enemies: A variety of new enemies and bosses have been incorporated into the stunning enhanced environments
* Variable AI: Contributing to the increased difficulty level, the gameplay differs each time you appear in a level as enemies engage in a variety of different actions as they assess the current situation
* Gameplay Innovation: A finishing blow system can be used in battle to quickly defeat an enemy in one dynamic action
* Weapon Rewards: The weapons you acquire can be leveled up to strengthen their power and gain new battle techniques
