SEGA will finally bring back one of their classic franchises – Shinobi – later this year.

Confirmed during Sony’s State of Play, Shinobi: Art of Vengeance will launch on August 29 and comes to us from Lizardcube who also successfully brought back Streets of Rage 4 and Wonderboy: The Dragon’s Trap.

In addition to bringing back the classic platforming action, players can also get hold of a Digital Deluxe Edition of the game which will let you play three days earlier on August 26.

All pre-orders will also give you the Original and Classic Shinobi Arcade Outfit and a Fortune Hunter Amulet

The Digital Deluxe Edition will also include a Season Pass that includes two pieces of DLC. A Starter Pack available at launch which include the following…

  • Ghost Outfit

It has also been confirmed in early 2026 that a SEGA Villians Stage DLC will launch which will apparently feature bosses based on iconic SEGA villains.

The Digital Deluxe Edition will also include a Digital Art Book + Soundtrack.

Shinobi: Art of Vengeance will launch on PC, PS, Xbox and Switch on August 29.
