Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound Gameplay
The core gameplay of Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound is centered around the simplicity of arcade controls schemes, with what little gameplay shown in the game's trailer being limited to jumps, ledge grabs, attacks, projectile reflections, and projectile bouncing.
The game will feature other mechanics like a shop system that allows players to use the game's collectible currency to buy new weapons and modify the game, or even tweak their own stats. This installment also features the "Hypercharge" mechanic, which lets players instantly destroy high-health enemies by collecting them from lesser enemies.
