What is “KAGE~Shadow of The Ninja”
The Ninja action game masterpiece returns after 34 years! The original version was a home console game software released in 1990.

At that time, this work was translated as “Shadow of Ninja” in North America and “Blue Shadow” in Europe. After its release, it became a popular work all over the world. Now it has finally been resurrected as a completely new work.
