Ninja Assault was developed by Namco, who also created the Time Crisis series; however, this game has more in common with Lethal Enforcers, Virtua Cop, and The House of the Dead series, whereby the movement is completely "on-rails" (i.e., with no hiding pedal), and the player must shoot away from the screen to reload.
Both versions of this game support up to two players in cooperative gameplay.
Ninja Assault is advertised in in-game email message in Namco's Xenosaga Episode I: Der Wille zur Macht.
After finishing the PS2 release of the game, one would unlock a code that could be entered in the contest at Namco's website.
According to GameRankings in 2010, Ninja Assault's PS2 version received an average score of 59.54% based on 30 reviews;[1] its GameFAQs verage score was 6.3 based on 6 user reviews.
