The level functions as a prequel to the main game’s events, casting players as a younger version of the elderly NPC Dosan as he works to secure the tattoo ink which will one day give the main game’s protagonist his powers. The one major gameplay addition in Mark of the Ninja Remastered is a brand new optional level called Dosan’s Tale. However, it’s still nice to see that Klei ensured the game would run silky smooth even when playing on the go. Granted, Mark of the Ninja’s high-quality presentation isn’t very surprising given how little stress its 2D graphics put on a given platform. Speaking of which, the entire base game experience can be played on the Switch in portable mode with flawless execution. Klei even took the time to reanimate many of the cinematics, adding in new visual and plot details which better help to convey the game’s story. The character sprites, background art, and cinematics have all been touched up as well. Klei went back and upped the game’s resolution to make it look less compressed and ensure it is fully 4K HD compatible. Most of the upgrades included in Mark of the Ninja Remastered are of the visual sort.
#MARK OF THE NINJA REMASTERED MOTHS UPGRADE#
The remastered upgrade admittedly doesn’t add much in the way of tangible new content, but it does at least make Mark of the Ninja worth revisiting, especially if you haven’t played it since its 2012 debut. Having now played the Nintendo Switch version of Mark of the Ninja Remastered, I can say with confidence that it’s an excellent port of an already excellent game. When I heard the game was getting a remastered upgrade, I was naturally excited, especially when developer Klei Entertainment announced the remastered edition would be coming to the Nintendo Switch console. Mark of the Ninja’s high-quality 2D stealth gameplay captivated me when the game originally launched way back in 2012.
