Ninja Issen is a game that first popped onto our radar in Summer 2021, as it was confirmed for Switch as part of Indie Live Expo. Originally planned for a 2021 release, it's now been shifted to a target of Summer 2022 and could be a bit of a sneaky hit to watch.

As you can see in the trailer it's heavily stylised and is aiming to deliver a 'hyper ninja action experience', which seems like an accurate description. It combines this with a cyberpunk aesthetic and seemingly a soundtrack that'll keep you awake to the action.
