    Ninja Gaiden Master Collection is a must-play for action fans, especially those seeking titles demanding on-the-fly reactions and arduous trials of failing and learning. The first two entries are as masterclass as you can get, and the third, while questionable in several areas, also proves to be more than an adequate investment of time.

    The slight graphical improvements and the addition of a few modes, weapons and characters provide a plausible excuse to pick up Team Ninja's vigorous games, neglecting the multiplayer of the past. The base of the problems is not found in the texture and resolution update, but in the origin of this trilogy, with the negative points of the Sigma versions making themselves felt in some moments. However, there are several moments in which we experience memorable challenges and a frenzy of blows that make us stick to the screen, just like what happened 10 years ago, reanimating a series that seemed forgotten, in the hands of a new generation of players.

    The Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection on PS4 Pro and PS5 offers great value with its budget price, runs brilliantly, and is well worth your time if you can stomach some visual inconsistencies and camera issues.

    The Ninja Gaiden Master Collection is a barebones port of two of the greatest action games ever made and Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge. The fact that these are the Sigma versions, and that Team Ninja has done nothing to iron out the weaker moments of these games, drags this collection down, but it's still a good way to play Ninja Gaiden on modern hardware.

    The Ninja Gaiden Master Collection is a great value for only $39.99. Three frenetic adventures that represent some of the best action games from console generations of the past are bundled, ensuring a lot of content for almost half the price of some AAA games. While the games stand on their own as fun and entertaining, the collection is rather barebones, and the exclusion of co-op or other multiplayer modes is felt throughout. Still, fans of the series, or those looking to become fans, can hardly go wrong with the purchase of this collection.

    Hayabusa is back with a correct remaster that could have been so much better, but at least allows us to enjoy this great series once again on modern hardware.

    Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection comes off more like a series of up-ressed ports than a definitive collection of classic titles. It’s a good thing that the three included games are fun because Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection isn’t that masterful.

    This is a classic series for old school fans. Before there was Dark Souls, there was Ninia Gaiden. These games are some of the most franticThis is a classic series for old school fans. Before there was Dark Souls, there was Ninia Gaiden. These games are some of the most frantic fun that can be had with interactive entertainment, even as old as they are now. Going from lowly ninja dog to a master ninja, finely tuning your responses to the different enemy types, being punished for nearly every mistake. It is not only frantic in its approach to hack and slash combat, but it is precise. As you get better with combos the game becomes infinitely more accessible. There's a certain fluidity in the combat amongst the chaos, and when you begin to master it, you watch yourself become better. In Soulslike games you can usually grind your way out of a bad spot, whereas in Ninja Gaiden, you must simply become better. These games will not be for everyone, but if you're in need of a worthy challenge, I challenge YOU to take the title of Master Ninja.… Expand
