Console Archives NINJA GAIDEN II: THE DARK SWORD OF CHAOS
And once again, the battle of the Dragon Ninja begins...
"NINJA GAIDEN II: THE DARK SWORD OF CHAOS" was released by TECMO in 1990 for an 8-bit home console.
In this side-scrolling action game, the Dragon Ninja, Ryu Hayabusa, fights with his katana and ninjutsu to stop the resurrection of an evil god.
The title gained worldwide popularity for the thrill of conquering demanding stages with ninja actions, combined with cinematic "Tecmo Theater" cutscenes that look just like a movie.
The “Console Archives” (CSA) series is designed to bring classic games originally released on home consoles to modern gaming platforms.
In “Console Archives” series, features such as customizable button layouts, rapid-fire settings, multiple save points, and for some titles, a rewind function have been added, to support players in completing these classics.
Additional options include screen layout adjustments and filters that recreate the the nostalgic atmosphere of CRT TVs back in the day, allowing players to customize the visual experience to their preference.
Whether it’s a title you played long ago or one you’re experiencing for the first time, we hope you’ll find a favorite and enjoy the game your way.
