Ninja Blade Release Date and Demo Details Revealed

From Software's ninja action game should be turning up in early April, with a demo coming in March.

Microsoft announced an official release date today for their upcoming third-person action game Ninja Blade. Developed by the fine folks at From Software -- responsible for creating Armored Core and Otogi -- this Xbox 360 exclusive should be ready to roll Tuesday, April 7. Early preorders will receive a token to download a premium Ninja Blade dashboard theme for free.

Is an April release just not soon enough for you? The publisher also revealed that a demo for Ninja Blade will be available on the Xbox Live Marketplace beginning March 9 -- only a week from next Monday. If you still can't wait that long to quench your thirst for all-out ninja mayhem, then you could always track down a copy of last year's Ninja Gaiden 2. Word on the street is that you can find it for pretty cheap these days.
