TEAM NINJA DIVULGES DEADLY NEW DETAILS FOR UPCOMING NINJA GAIDEN SIGMA 2 PLUS



Team NINJA today unveiled new details for NINJA GAIDENŽ SIGMA 2 PLUS, the highly anticipated sequel to its PlayStationŽVita launch title which is set for a February 26, 2013 release. Faster, bloodier, and more beautiful than ever, NINJA GAIDEN SIGMA 2 PLUS takes the legendary action game to the next level with the all new "Ninja Race" mode, tag missions involving any combination of two characters, potent new weapons for Ryu Hyabusa, and a variety of pre-order offerings including limited edition female costumes. To premier these new game elements, Team NINJA has released an all-new trailer and images highlighting the modes, weapons and costumes.

In "Ninja Race" mode, a slow ninja is a dead ninja as players race through dynamic courses to beat the clock. After choosing a character, level, and costume, players can strategically choose to dash through the course or viciously kill as many enemies as possible to earn boosts and points. The mode's Combo Kill counter increases as foes are dispatched in sequence-the higher the counter, the more damage is dealt as long as the gauge stays filled. Three special essences, exclusive to the Ninja Race mode, boost the player's chance of a successful mission: Green Essence adds time to the clock, White Essence boosts the Combo Kill counter for added damage, and Purple Essence grants Ninja Speed.
