Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z Gets A New Dev Diary

Tecmo has just released another Dev Diary for the upcoming Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z. In this diary, you get to see the origins of a badass character Yaiba, and all the work put on him.

In Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z , players will battle fierce zombies as Yaiba, a cyborg ninja who will do anything to get revenge and stay alive. Cleaved in two, he is brought back to life with cyber-technology. Brandishing his ninja sword and the mecha weapons in his cyber arm, he slaughters zombies with brutal, over-the-top abandon. Step into a stylized living comic book where stunning graphics depict a world gone mad.

Hordes of undead can only be stopped by Yaiba’s willingness to use any means necessary to get the job done. Will he kill by turning his cyber arm into a razor chainsaw for slicing up undead—or just rip off an opponent’s arms to use as zombie nunchucks? Both possibilities fill Yaiba’s heart with twisted laughter in this upcoming collaboration between famed developers Team Ninja and Comcept’s Keiji Inafune.

The game will be available on the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 on the 21st of March. Stay tuned for more updates till then, and check out the new dev diary below!
