Sunday, September 8th, 2024

The same X user who leaked footage of the new Shinobi game has also shared footage of a supposed 2022 build of the new multiplayer-focused Crazy Taxi. This new Crazy Taxi title is still in development which means it may look very different to this leaked footage considering its supposed age. You can watch it on @Ryanfrombronx’s X (formerly Twitter) account by clicking the screenshot below:

The new Crazy Taxi is still currently unnamed with no confirmed developer or target platforms at the time of writing. It was previously showcased at the 2023 Game Awards.

Early Shinobi Introduction & Gameplay Footage Leaks

Sunday, September 8th, 2024

Some footage reported to be of the introduction sequence as well as some in-game action of the upcoming untitled Shinobi game has leaked. There is no word on whether this footage is legit or not, but it’s an impressive offering that looks remarkably similar to the footage previously shown at the 2023 Game Awards. There is currently no word on the game’s official title, platforms it will release on or who is currently developing it at the time of writing.

The footage is currently only available to watch on X (formally Twitter) via user @Ryanfrombronx so click here to view the video. The same user also leaked some more Shinobi footage back on the 31st of August which you can also watch by clicking here.

Here’s some screenshots of the in-game action for you to browse as well:

While there is no official word on a developer at the time of writing, the art style is very similar to that of Dotemu, Lizardcube and Guard Crush Games’s Streets of Rage 4. Fingers crossed we get to see more of the game through official means very soon.
