Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound, the next entry in the legendary action platformer series from KOEI TECMO GAMES, will be launching across PC and consoles on July 31st. With only a few weeks between now and the day we can don the svelte attire of the shinobi, we now have the complete Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound achievement list.
For those who may not be familiar with Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound, it is a 2D action game being developed by The Game Kitchen, the developers of the Blasphemous series. The team is taking Ninja Gaiden back to its 2D roots, and in some of the most beautifully detailed pixel art we have ever seen. In Ragebound, players take on the role of Kenji Mozu, a student of Ninja Gaiden’s original protagonist, and arguably gaming’s greatest ninja, Ryu Hayabusa. With his teacher missing, Kenji must defend their village from an army of ravenous demons, making some unlikely allies in the process.
Back in April, the developers revealed Kumori, the Black Spider Assassin, and introduced fans to “Ninja Fusion”.
First revealed on the TrueAchievements website, there are a total of 36 achievements, with 6 kept secret, tallying up to the required 1000 Gamerscore. The full Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound achievement list is below, with secret achievements hidden to avoid unwanted spoilers (uncover at your discretion).

The achievement list for Ragebound is a solid mix, with a fair few offering unique challenges, such as Art of the Inferno, The Challenge of the Mountain, and Hanging in the Bullet. Fans of the Ninja Gaiden series will be no strangers to its brutally difficult nature, as well as the ranking system that grades your performance for each level.
The list also implies the need for several playthroughs of the game, and not just to get all the collectibles. Alongside collecting Crystal Skulls and Golden Scarabs, purchasing Talismans and Secret Arts, and of course, slaying thousands of enemies, the developers have given even more reasons for subsequent playthroughs. The Venom achievement’s description is “Unlock Ending A”, which would imply the existence of at least one other ending to Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound. That’s all the detective work we’ll be doing, and we look forward to seeing what the game has in store.
NINJA GAIDEN: Ragebound is due out for PlayStation 4 & 5, Xbox Series, Switch, and Steam on July 31st, 2025. You can wishlist Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound on Steam today.
