After deploying a video in which it talked about the upcoming Ninja Gaiden 3 game, developer Team Ninja has now posted a fresh batch of screenshots that focus on the title’s gory combat.

Ryu Hayabusa once again dons his ninja mask in the upcoming game and, as you can see in the images below, it’s a much gorier affair than the ones seen in past installments of the series.

As opposed to previous screenshots from the game, these new images depict gameplay elements like Ryu’s health bar, while also showcasing new enemies that the player needs to eliminate, including soldiers on jetpacks or big hulking statues.

Check them out below and get ready for the release of Ninja Gaiden 3 later this month, on March 20, in North America, and March 23, in Europe, for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 consoles.
