Ninja Blade has always been about action and, lucky, for all its fans in Japan, they will be getting the chance to sample that action very soon.

Today, FROM Software has announced that Ninja Blade will be getting a demo, or as they like to call it, a free trial in “sequential” delivery on December 29 on the Japanese Xbox LIVE Marketplace.

The demo start off in a modern-day version Tokyo called the “SHINE-MATIKKUA-KUSHONGEMU stage”, as it was translated. At the being of the sage players will take the role of the main character, which swoop down from the high-rise buildings and fights the enemy in “dive-action”.

Anyway, there was on information given on a North American version of the demo, or any onther version of the demo.

I’m not going to beat around the bush, when it comes to Ninja games Ninja Blade isn’t on the tip of the mountain. But we can at least rest today knowing the, possible, release date for the game – because we all know that games have the tendency to be delayed.

Today, From Software has shared their release target for their game Ninja Blade. The game is set to release on January 29, 2009.

When announced prior to the Tokyo Game Show, the game had shown some very high promise at the time and it still does today. And to celebrate this release date announcement, From Software has just updated the official site for the game.

Also for those who can’t get enough of Ninja Blade will be able to immerse themselves in the game through a new soundtrack, which was also announced today by From Software.

Produced by Gem Impact’s Norihiko Hibino, who’s known for his work on the Metal Gear series, the soundtrack includes 27 tracks on two discs, both of which have color picture labels. Also Ninja Blade’s main theme song, Beanstalk, which was produced as a collaboration with Yuki Koyanagi, will be distributed worldwide on iTunes and various ring-tone sites starting 12/24.

From Software has confirmed in the pages of the popular gaming magazine Famitsu this week with it’s plans to unveil a new project based on the license Tenchu. According to Famitsu, the game will be released on October 8 at the cost of 800 Microsoft Points. This game was rumored sometime back to be a multi-platform I’m unsure how this rumor was put down, but seeing since there isn’t much information our sources state that this is mostly true. Tenchu is a popular stealth action ninja game that is a hit in both Japan and America.

First this game was rumored to be revealed at E3 now, at the same press conference at which price drop for the 360 was announced, Microsoft has finally revealed the game. The game will be developed by the current Tenchu developers From Software, who also worked on the Otogi series for the original Xbox.

A 30 second trailer of the game was shown of a ninja character moving around Tokyo and fighting demons. which can reminds you of something from the Ninja Gaiden series. But, they guys over at Gamersyde have already gotten their hands on the trailer for the game that was shown at the the conference. The game is due out for a release next year as an Xbox 360 exclusive for all those Ninja fanboys.
