How To Beat Ninja Gaiden Sigma

This guide is pretty much for any new player who hasn't played Ninja Gaiden 1 in particular and is looking for a basic attack that'll get you through the game.

Most Deadly Technique

To beat Ninja Gaiden Sigma you must learn one basic technique, the way of a true ninja. SPAM FLYING SWALLOW! Simply jump towards an enemy and press Y (XBOX) or Triangle (PS). This move does quite amount of damage and you're most guaranteed a decapitation. It's pretty useful in almost every situation, you can also perform this while running against a wall. https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/1713038824714370981/CEA3BD4E932ED3D20DC0707C7906F4A27A01F263/?imw=256&&ima=fit&impolicy=Letterbox&imcolor=%23000000&letterbox=false

Decent advice for Hero/Normal difficulty. Beware of the recovery frames on whiffs - any enemy will be waiting to punish. I would straight-up avoid doing this during a wall run, as it leaves you super vulnerable on landing.

On difficulties higher than Normal, perform the move only when you know you can land. The path to being the Ultimate Ninja is about patience and deadly precision after all.

many enemies block this technique! When all else failse, Ultimate technique is pretty good too.
