Oh really – I am soo shocked! This is just so unprecedented ;)

Yes Tecmo’s Team Ninja have revealed, via Japanese tome Famitsu, that they are hard at work porting the XBox 360 guts-fest that is Ninja Gaiden II over to Sony’s black fan heater.

Little details are available at the moment (mainly due to the fact that the mag is in Japanese :) ) but what we do have come courtesy of Gametrailer’s translation :

* It will be an upgraded version of Ninja Gaiden 2 (not a direct port)
* Set to release in autumn 2009
* The magazine will be reporting new elements in coming issues
* Producer and director: Yosuke Hayashi (From Sigma)
* Development: Team Ninja

Some of the new features for the PlayStation 3 version are:

* New weapon – spiked hammer “Genma”
* New giant boss battles not in the 360 version
* New playable character – female ninja Ayane

So it sounds very similar to the alteration that took place when Ninja Gaiden Sigma came to the system. Heres hoping they tone down the difficulty just a notch ;)
