Ninja Gaiden III featured in Official PlayStation Magazine – details

This month’s issue of the Official PlayStation Magazine has a feature of Team Ninja’s Ninja Gaiden III. It contains a bunch of details, and we know for sure that it also contains the first screenshots of the title. NeoGAF member “Rated-Rsuperstar” describes the images as the following:

“The game looks to be running on a more modified Sigma 2 engine. 3 shots are of Ryu slicing up foot soldiers in a dark rainy city street. There’s another with him climbing a wall with daggers. And the final shot is him running from some giant mechanoid spider thing.”

A few details from the magazine include:

There will be both competitive and cooperative modes. One or both will support up to 8 players
