Following its successful 2025 debut, the critically acclaimed Shinobi: Art of Vengeance is making the leap to the Nintendo Switch 2. While fans have already enjoyed Joe Musashi’s latest outing on the original Switch, this enhanced native version promises a more refined experience when it launches this autumn.
Mark your calendars for September 24—a date already shaping up to be a significant milestone for major gaming releases. The Switch 2 iteration will feature substantial graphical enhancements and will be available in both digital and physical formats. Players can choose between a Standard Edition or a feature-rich Deluxe Edition, the latter of which bundles in the highly anticipated Sega Villains Stage DLC. This expansion pits the legendary ninja against iconic adversaries, including Dr. Eggman and Like a Dragon’s formidable Goro Majima.
Crafted by the visionary team at Lizard Cube—the studio behind the stellar Streets of Rage 4—Shinobi: Art of Vengeance is a masterclass in modern side-scrolling action. Chronicling Joe Musashi’s brutal quest for retribution following the annihilation of his home, the game garnered a stellar 9.25/10 review score and earned a prestigious spot on our list of the Top 10 Games of 2025.
