<p>The 2D side-scroller inspired by the original <strong><a class="external" href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/vcarcade/ninja_gaiden">Ninja Gaiden</a></strong> game will receive an entirely free DLC pack titled ‘Picnic Panic’ in 2019 that takes players on a trip to tropical paradise to defeat three bosses.
