Now, we realise that's quite a bold claim to make, so let's dive into why we think Mark of the Ninja is so good, even six years after its original appearance on PC and Xbox 360.įorgetting the action-packed story and stunning cartoon art style, the most immediately striking thing about the game is the way it feels to move around the levels. Upon discovering that this remastered version was in the works, we resolved to remedy the situation because with this game Klei has probably crafted the best stealth-platformer ever made. So, yeah, we missed Mark of the Ninja the first time around and only got around to playing it long after it was originally released. Klei's stealth platformer has been spruced up for its return and has landed in all its 4K glory on PC, PS4, and Xbox One, and as a potentially portable adventure on Nintendo Switch.
We recently got the chance to go back and look properly at Velocity 2X, for example, and Mark of the Ninja Remastered is another case in point.
One of the things we've really enjoyed about the fact that indie devs are flocking to the Switch with their re-releases and remasters is that we've gotten the chance to go back and visit a few games that we missed the first time around.
