He’s an engine of chaos who lost everything to the dull, gloomy Ryu. Kamikaze might be a homicidal maniac, but it lends him a Trevor Philips-style vibe. What’s remarkable is how genuinely endearing the cast are despite their utter depravity. And if you’re really dedicated, it can be cleared in a single sitting. Your opponents escalate from a mob of zombies to piercing the multiverse to fight an underworld god over the course of your journey. No sections glaringly repeat themselves, always throwing either a new enemy or combination of enemies at you. You can achieve every character upgrade in a single playthrough. Then for seven levels across six or so hours of hack’n’slash brawling, you hunt down Ryu, bash zombies, and waste no time charging ahead.Įverything here is breathlessly thrown together, presenting a singular focus that just wouldn’t fly in modern AAA games. Kamikaze is resurrected by the cybernetics of the Forge corporation who air drop him into Russia. He duels Ninja Gaiden mainstay Ryu Hayabusa, and gets cut in half by Ryu. All you need to know is it’s a zombie-filled Ninja Gaiden spin-off starring antihero Yaiba Kamikaze. Its opening instantly establishes its premise with little other context. Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z knows it’s not high art.
