Koei Tecmo recently filed a new trademark in the United States for a Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z, suggesting a possible new release to be announced in the near future.
Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z is a third-person hack and slash spin-off of the Ninja Gaiden series that was originally developed by Spark Unlimited and produced by Comcept’s Keiji Inafune in March 2014 for PS3, Xbox 360, and PC.

The trademark was filed on January 2, 2019 so we can expect some kind of announcement in the near future. Perhaps a port or remake could be announced for its fifth anniversary that is coming in a couple months.

This was a mega flop when it released. Can't really imagine them returning to this over the proper releases.

The People: "We want Ninja Gaiden on modern consoles!"

Tecmo Koei: "Ok fuckers, you asked for it."

That being said, there is one good thing about Yaiba

Spoiler

She should've come to DOA6 instead of that new scientist girl we got

Probably for XBOX One BC. Could see them adding NGII and NG3RE, and just tossing this in as well.

I'll fuck with NG2. The rest of it can die in a fire.

That is the only good thing about the game yes, and I agree, she would have been better than NiCo.

I'd rather have a new Ninja Gaiden.

Maybe Yaiba will pop up as a DLC character for DOA or in a future DOA installment?

Both DmC and Yaiba can go to hell.

I have the PS3 game. Playing it for just 15 minutes made me addicted to Monster Energy drinks and Linkin Park. I also changed my legal name to Kyle.

DmC, especially the PC and Ps4/X1 versions, aged so much better than most action games. I wouldn't knock it if I were you.

Both NGII and NG3RE are already BC.

Really underrated game, the sense of humor was great, i loved the zombie jokes.

Some funny glitches that happened to me back in the day:
