SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance to get a resolution bump on Switch

SEGA of America has ushered in the return of the iconic SHINOBI franchise with SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance, an exciting new 2D action platformer set in a uniquely illustrated world created in collaboration with Lizardcube, the studio behind the acclaimed Streets of Rage 4. The game arrived on the Switch eShop last week, but unfortunately it seems there is a resolution issue that some players are struggling with.

Shortly after the game’s launch, numerous Switch players reached out to SEGA to comment on a rather lackluster resolution. Thankfully those complaints haven’t fallen on deaf ears, as SEGA has confirmed that due to the feedback, they are currently developing an update patch to improve the resolution. There’s no official word on when the patch will drop, but we’ll give you that info when it becomes available.

SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance follows longtime series protagonist and master of the ninja arts, Joe Musashi, who arrives home from a previous adventure to find his village burned to the ground and his clan turned into stone. Driven by vengeance, Joe sets off on an epic quest, battling hordes of enemies and larger-than-life bosses across stunning hand-drawn worlds. Rife with multiple paths to discover or unlock and packed with smooth, satisfying gameplay, SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance will have players attacking and reacting on the move— and keep them coming back for more.
