Team Ninja didn't offer any information when it silently deployed these new Ninja Gaiden 3 screens, aside from some background about Ryu's curse, so we can't say for certain what's going on. be that fire dragon a Ninpo attack? A transformation? A boss? Whatever it be, it be pretty.

What's not so pretty be Ryu's arm. It turns out that, when not surrounded by an aura a blood, Ryu's newly cursed arm be just covered with gross veins or something. Good thing Ryu doesn't ever stand still long enough for us t' pillage a good look at the sea dog while playing.
