Team Ninja announced a new Dead or Alive 5 project this weekend, 'n it looks t' be a new game featuring the Momiji character from the Ninja Gaiden series. As Shoryuken reports, the brief teaser trailer shown at the "TGN Playse #1" tournament didn't divulge much beyond it "coming soon" t' Xbox 360 'n PS3.

The katana-brandishing Momiji first appeared in DS entry Dragon Sword, before gracing the series proper as a playable character in Ninja Gaiden 2. Ryu's apprentice then came t' Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge as a playable character through DLC. Unlike some a Ninja Gaiden's protagonists, she's yet t' star in Team Ninja's DoA series.

When approached, a Tecmo Koei spokesperson said she be unable t' comment.
