The original Ninja Gaiden for the first Xbox is known for having some rather strange, albeit powerful, enemies. Over the course of the game, the player goes up against everything from mutant cats to giant insects and ghost fish. Thankfully, Ninja Gaiden II looks to continue the trend starting with the Spider Fiend that was revealed in some of the first media for the game. And now Team Ninja seems to be expanding their monster repertoire into the more traditionally western, with the newest enemy reveal: the werewolf.
The werewolves fit into the Ninja Gaiden canon by simply being fiends, no silver, bite, or full moon required. They're just humans transformed into fiend (humans turned into supernatural creatures through cursing of their blood, according to the wiki) form. As they are still humanoid, the werewolves can be dismembered (see above) and hopefully decapitated. With the recent release of DMC4, this is the next big action game on the horizon, so we can expect the coverage and amount of new screens to increase as the release date approaches.
