Ninja Gaiden 2 Black may have come from nowhere, but it was one of the best-selling PS5 games in the US last month. And now you already have a reason to replay it.

A new update, available now, adds New Game+ mode to the popular remaster, allowing you to enjoy the entire campaign again with all of your previous content unlocked.
