E3 2003: Kunoichi: Shinobi Screens
Sega's first set of screens from the forthcoming Kunoichi: Shinobi reveal a female ninja in an obvious Shinobi sequel.
Sega's Overworks studio has revealed the first screens of Kunoichi: Shinobi. Based on gamers' feedback to the PlayStation 2 version of Shinobi, the team has created an 'upgraded' version of the game, which is expected to be much better. As you can see, they're off to a good start, having replaced the main character with a beautiful Kunoichi - meaning female ninja, of course.
Whilst it would be ace to play this at E3, reports indicate that Kunoichi may only make it to the show in video form next week. Scans from Japanese Dori Maga magazine. High-res screens expected as soon as E3 kicks off on Wednesday - possibly sooner, at this rate.
