Fans of this classic can mark their calendars for February 25th, when it will be available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5.

Armed with an impressive array of ninja skills, Joe takes on gripping missions involving sinister crimes like bank heists and hijackings. Combat menacing Mad Mask bosses, employing everything from sword strikes to grappling hooks in your quest for justice.
Key features of this re-release include:
– **Ninjutsu Abilities:** Master a variety of moves to defeat your enemies.
– **Time Trial Mode:** Challenge yourself by replaying previously completed stages in a race against the clock.
– **Progress Save:** Continue your game progression anytime.
– **Rewind Feature:** A handy option allowing players to rewind the game up to five seconds, ideal for correcting mistakes.
The game promises to deliver the nostalgic thrill and adventure of the original, enriched with features that enhance the gameplay experience.
