Hong Kong's biggest game publisher and distributor has uploaded and quickly deleted a listing for a Ninja Gaiden Sigma Trilogy. The product page mentioned a PlayStation 4 release in March 2021 before being pulled. That's all the information we have to share right now, but if someone in the know speaks up or the collection is officially announced, we'll be sure to update you all.
Given the title of the supposed trilogy, this would be a bundling of Ninja Gaiden Sigma, Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2, and Ninja Gaiden III. For clarity, this would not include Ninja Gaiden Black — what is widely considered to be the best version of the original game. Since the listing is no longer available for viewing, that probably means this collection is either absolutely a thing or was just a muck-up. Let's hope we learn more in the near future.

It would be welcome but its still a crying shame that Ninja Gaiden Black is so hard to come by.
If this collection becomes a reality then I hope it ships with a nerf-gamepad to toss & save your real dualshock 4 when you need to rage quit then!
Ninja gaiden is awsome.i even play the arcadegame back in 1989.make it happen.so we can get a new one.word up son
@Robocod. I never rage quit in video games.i play hard games all the times since 1981.ninja gaiden games are not hard.but extremely fun and addicted.word up son.
Maybe this will appease all the Ninja Gaiden fans who were annoyed Team Ninja were working on Nioh games instead of a new Ninja Gaiden game. Maybe this adds weight to the rumours they're working on a new Ninja Gaiden game for PS5. I might be willing to fork out for the trilogy again depending on how good a series of remasters they are.
@playstation1995 That's the way, just retry until you get it done. I do like to swear a lot if I'm dying but I'd never throw anything or just give up!
So much for the xbox exclusivity rumour then.
I loved the first 2 NG's, never played the third after how crap the demo was but hear Razors Edge was much better.
The first two games are brilliant. Shame it's not Black for the first one and Sigma for the other two. As Black was better than Sigma 1.
Very good games. I enjoyed how people asked for an easy mode with the first one so it was given to them... With a pink ribbon to wear. Gives the player choice but also makes it clear it's not the way the game was intended to be played.
Hope this is real and theres an Xbox version of this collection. As much as I'm primarily a PS gamer, the Sigma's just aren't as good as the XB versions. Especially NGS2.
"Time to show all these Soulsborne players what hard really is"
But seriously these are some great games in need of a new audience and a remaster. 1 & 2 anyway.
Excellent news! I played 2 a lot on my 360, but never came round to playing the original, so I'd be interested in this a lot.
This will probably fall into the Mass Effect Trilogy blackhole.
The way remasters have been going lately, that's for the best.
They can't even get one game working lately, much less three.
Hi there fellow gamers. That is some cool news. Ninja Gaiden 1 and 2 are pretty good, especialy the first one(The OG Xbox Black version even more so, imo). Ninja Gaiden 3..........
But this does get me excited for a possible Ninja Gaiden 4 made better with all of the experience that Team Ninja has gotten with their Ni-Oh franchise. Good news for all of us NG fans.
Cheers, stay safe out there and happy gaming to us all
Fond memories of NG Black, remember completing this more than a dozen times, easily the best out of the trilogy
I like some of the Sigma exclusive stuff, but overall NG1B and the original NG2 are better. Of course Razors Edge is no question the better version of 3, which is probably what we'd get. I wonder if it's possible that these remasters could bridge the gap between the Sigma and non Sigma versions.
@MightyDemon82 Im old i have enough stress gaming is for me too relax. 😆
I would prefer a remake over a remaster. But it's a good time to start playing this franchise as I have never played it before
@MightyDemon82. Haha.ninja gaiden is awsome.word up son
@Flaming_Kaiser me too, wife keeps telling me I'll get arthritis playing games alot, been gaming since I was 7 and almost 40, should have set in by now!
@playstation1995 word up son!
Wait a minute, the source image linked from resetera to reddit is for the NES trilogy, pinch of salt for this one.
@nessisonett - NGB is hard to come by where? Ebay always has plenty of copies and you can buy it digitally.
the question is: why now, at the very end of ps4's life? sounds ridiculous UNLESS tecmo is planning to announce a next gen ninja gaiden game at the same time to be released a year later... which sounds like a real possibility.
@Shigurui It’s only on Xbox so in the sense that it’s hard to actually play without getting a specific system. Like Jet Set Radio Future!
@MightyDemon82 When i get pissed off i turn of my console and i will do something else. I had one time when i almost broke my controller i heard it crack and i thought this is too expensive better relax.
@Flaming_Kaiser i had a dualshock which i actually bit and left teeth marks in it because i got so pissed off with a game..i think it was one of the tomb raider games on the ps1 with a really ***** camera view which kept changing the direction input and causing a massive,apocalyptic chernobyl out pouring of pure unadulterated rage..the shame..
@nessisonett - So it's hard to come by in the same way that Uncharted 4 or Zelda BotW are. I don't follow your logic but have it your way.
@Shigurui Ninja Gaiden Black is literally only available on the OG Xbox. It was on Game Pass for a bit but was removed for some reason.
@nessisonett - And Uncharted 4 is literally only available on PS4. Having to buy a system to play a game doesn't make it hard to come by. You can buy NGB digitally on the MS store btw, playable on 360 or XBO.
This was my jam back in the day, not sure about now, reflexes aren't what they used to be XD
@LiamCroft I tried playing the first Sigma game on PS3 before and kept dying, shame since I did buy all four games (1-2 and both versions of 3).
I wonder which version of Sigma 3 we should be getting? OG or the re-release?
Never played a Ninja Gaiden game mainly because I can't afford to replace controllers. Might pick this up, since PS4 pads are pretty durable
@Northern_munkey I put so much pressure on the controller i heard it crack that my worst thing. I dont even remember with which game that was.
@KidBoruto - There is no Sigma 3. The Sigma games were remakes of the once exclusive Xbox titles. NG3 released simultaneously on Xbox and PS3 as did Razor's Edge after its short period of WiiU exclusivity. I fully expect this collection (if it's actually real) will have Razor's Edge.
@Shigurui My apologies, thanks for the correction! I just assumed 3 had Sigma in it due to the collection being labeled Sigma Trilogy.
@KidBoruto - It's understandable considering the name of the collection. Perhaps some new content will be added to Razor's Edge, give it the Sigma treatment so to speak, as the 2 Sigma games have some major differences from their Xbox counterparts. Time will tell.
