At a glance

Ninja Blade is a FromSoftware action game set amid a parasitic infestation spreading from a village in Northern Africa toward Tokyo. The story begins with peacekeeping forces investigating weapons trafficking and finding aggressive, hard-to-stop creatures. Researchers identify hookworm-like parasites beneath their skin; their larvae cause changes that make infected people larger, stronger and driven by hunger. A special team is assembled to contain outbreaks, leading into the Tokyo situation. Combat centers on three different weapons, with quick-time events and cinematic action. The game is single-player and listed for Windows. It was released in 2009, and its genres include action and action-adventure. Family Sharing is also listed as a Steam feature.
