Shinobi: Art of Vengeance

Since 2017, Lizardcube has become one of the go-to companies for retro Sega properties – first with the Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap Remake, and then with 2020’s Streets of Rage 4. After these successes, they were granted the keys to the Shinobi franchise with 2025’s Shinobi: Art of Vengeance, the first entry in the series since Shinobi on the 3DS fourteen years prior. (It should be noted that Streets of Rage 4 was co-developed with Guard Crush Games, who were not involved with Shinobi, as instead they developed the roguelike beat-em-up Absolum released around the same time.)
