The ninja action game SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance will receive the paid “SEGA Villains Stage” DLC on April 3 for PlayStation 4 & 5, Xbox One & Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam, alongside a free update arriving the same day.

The new downloadable content introduces crossover encounters with iconic SEGA antagonists, as Joe Musashi faces off against Death Adder, Goro Majima, and Dr. Eggman across a set of themed stages inspired by their respective franchises. These additions bring new environments and boss battles that expand the game’s existing structure.
Alongside the new bosses, the DLC includes multiple new stages, additional Boss Rush modes, fresh ninpo abilities, new outfits, and extra music tracks, offering more variety for players looking to extend their experience. The content is included with the Digital Deluxe Edition, while standard edition owners can purchase it separately or upgrade.
At the same time, a free update will roll out for all players, introducing a Hardcore Mode and combat adjustments, as well as improvements to visual clarity and interface elements such as the map and tutorials.
