Ninja Gaiden 3 Confirmed To Have Move Support

At this year’s GamesCom event in Germany Team Ninja and Tecmo Koei announced that Ninja Gaiden 3 will have full PlayStation Move support when it launches. Players will get to take control of the katana and feel their enemies fall before them. This will be the first title from the developer to ever feature this type of support.

We are really excited to announce this fantastic news at one of Europe’s most prestigious game events that is Gamescom”, stated the leader of Team NINJA Yosuke Hayashi. “Ninja Gaiden 3 is all about slicing and chopping through flesh and bone and PlayStation Move bring players even closer to the game’s protagonist Ryu Hayabusa.  The game will be compatible with all Move peripherals and it will feature full compatibility with this exciting new hardware.”

The only release information we have for the game is that it will be arriving sometime in early 2012 for the PS3 and Xbox 360. Kinect owners, I doubt you’ll receive any special treatment, unfortunately. It looks like PS3 owners have the upper hand here. What do you think?
