![]() It was really refreshing to see Ryu interact with Canna and see her slowly warm up to the super ninja. This is thanks to his relationship with Mizuki McCloud and her daughter, Canna. This may be because the story in Razor’s Edge showed a more human side of Ryu as opposed to the badass, unflappable ninja seen in the first two games. ![]() But that isn’t necessarily a bad thing as the main story was definitely more interesting in this game than the previous two. NINJA GAIDEN 3: Razor’s Edge on the other hand did not have any documents to supplement the main story. I found these documents helped add more life to an otherwise straightforward story. These books help flesh out the world and events that occur in the games prior to Ryu’s arrival on the scene. While the main story isn’t much to talk about in either game, it is supplemented by documents you can find throughout the games. The story is pretty bare bones in both Sigma and Sigma 2. Unlike the first game, NINJA GAIDEN Sigma 2 and 3: Razor’s Edge tell all of their story scenes using in-game graphics. These pre-rendered cutscenes made the transition pretty well to Nintendo Switch, not very pixelated, but you can tell these scenes were made for an older game. NINJA GAIDEN Sigma tells its story with both in-game graphics scenes and those that are pre-rendered. Ryu must find this mysterious group and stop them before they enact their plan to “change the world” in seven days. The Grip of Murder causes Ryu’s right arm to absorb his trusted Dragon Sword, and all the lives taken with the weapon slowly start to eat away and kill the super ninja. Ryu gets cursed while trying to stop a terrorist attack in London. NINJA GAIDEN 3: Razor’s Edge actually shakes up the story in that the Hayabusa Village does not get attacked, color me shocked. Why do groups insist on attacking the village of the baddest ninja around? They clearly have a death wish. Ryu must chase down Genshin and a mysterious woman, Elizébet, and stop the pair from reviving the Archfiend using the stolen artifact. In Sigma 2, the Black Spider Ninja Clan, led by Genshin, attacks the Hayabusa Village and steals the Demon Statue from the clan. In Sigma, Ryu travels to the Vigoorian Empire to retrieve the Dark Dragon Blade and seeks revenge after a dark samurai, Doku, attacks the Hayabusa Village, steals the weapon from the clan, and murders the Dragon Shrine Maiden, Kureha. The story in these games is pretty simple, especially for NINJA GAIDEN Sigma and Sigma 2.
