SHADOW GANGS ZERO - Retro Shinobi-style ninja action game for PC !

If you enjoyed arcade games like Shinobi (1987) and Shadow Dancer (1989), the following game series might interest you. A Shinobi-style action game called Shadow Gangs was released for PC (Steam) in 2020, and its success has now led to the development of a prequel named Shadow Gangs Zero.


The Kickstarter campaign for this prequel game has achieved full funding, but it still needs to reach a series of stretch goals, the first of which is:

Second Playable Character
Introducing Hikaru, the ninja girl! Play as this new character and experience the game from a fresh perspective.



Take a look and see if you might be able to help out!

The core campaign ended on September 14, 2024 and was a smashing success. Not only was the project fully funded, but it also surpassed the stretch goal for having the female ninja included as a playable character!

Due to extremely strong demand, the developer has decided to accept Late Pledges for those who missed out during the core campaign. Here's the exciting part... The project is only £2,000 away from reaching the next stretch goal: 2-player co-operative gameplay. This will be a revolutionary feature, as none of the arcade and console Shinobi games had this 2-player simultaneous gameplay.

In addition to the PC (Steam), the game will also be available for: Neo Geo, Sega Genesis, Dreamcast, PS5, Xbox, and Switch.

2-player co-op gameplay has been unlocked. Thanks to all backers for making this happen!

Late Pledges are being accepted for a bit longer, so make sure you join the club while you still can.

ShadowTeam has posted an update for the upcoming Shinobi-inspired game Shadow Gangs Zero. The first bit of news is that the graphics development is coming along very nicely. The second major takeaway is that the porting process to the Sega Genesis / Mega Drive has now begun. Porting to the PC will happen later this year.

Last month (April 2025), the developer finished crafting the game engine for the Sega Genesis / Mega Drive version of the game. It shouldn't be too much longer before work on the PC / Steam version begins.


The latest news for this month (May 2025) is that the game's core artwork is now almost fully complete, with just special effects and background animations left to add - these will bring extra life and energy to the levels.
