Extending the critically acclaimed gameplay experience, the new battle-oriented survival modes feature three different themes: “Weapon Master,” “Speed Master,” and “Rachel Master.”

• In the “Weapon Master” mode, the player must master their chosen weapon to fight off relentless enemy attacks. Choices are limited, so choose wisely.
• “Speed Master,” available the latter half of September, features a theme of speed. Players must defeat enemies as quickly as possible as both life and time are limited. The ability to move quickly in this acrobatic stage is the key to success.
• Available the latter half of October, “Rachel Master” features five survival battles where the player controls Rachel. Only the winner of these battles can claim to be the best Fiend Hunter. Rachel’s new hair style also becomes available with this download.

Ninja Gaiden has evolved once again for the PS3, featuring more ninja content than ever, new weapons and combos, new enemies and bosses, new stages and missions, and for the first time ever Rachel the Fiend Hunter as a playable character.
