Joe Musashi (code name Shinobi) of the Oboro School of Ninjutsu has long been in a struggle against the forces of evil. Years ago, the nemesis of the Oboro school, the Neo Zeed organization, was defeated by Shinobi, It's leaders killed or put in prison, and its criminal activities stopped cold.
Joe Musashi decides to return to Japan and recuperate after the battle in Neo City. But while he is training in the mountains of Japan, working to improve his already formidable Ninja techniques, the Neo Zeed leaders are secretly rebuilding their organization. Shinobi senses the evil power growing and starts to make his way back to fight this new danger. Neo Zeed's minions have been ordered to stop Shinobi at all costs. The rewards they've promised - riches and power. The punishment for failure - slow, agonizing torture and death at the fangs and claws of Neo Zeed's war demons. The stakes are the highest yet, and you as Joe Musashi - Shinobi - you know that unless you succeed, the world will fall into clutches of Neo Zeed ! You must not fail!
