Team Ninja isn’t quite finished with Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 and they are on schedule for a fall release. Word is from Famitsu that Ryu will get a little help in this up and coming ninja blood-fest. Tecmo has upped the bar with the addition of “Team Mission” mode.
“Team Missions” bring a variety of online enabled single level missions designed for co-op gameplay. Each player is free to select their avatar, or AI buddies are available. Expect a barrage of enemies and some of the challenging boss battles Ninja Gaiden is known for.
