Ninja Gaiden Sigma, the player takes control of Ryu as he infiltrates the Shadow clan fortress.
Ryu is there to visit his uncle, the clan leader Murai.
During their chat, Ayane delivers news of a raid on the Hayabusa village.Fighting his way back to his village, Ryu encounters Doku, who has killed the Hayabusa shrine maiden Kureha and has taken the Dark Dragon Blade.
Ryu is cut down by Doku with the stolen Blade, but he is brought back to life as a "soldier of revenge" by a falcon, the spiritual animal of the Hayabusa clan.

Seeking vengeance for Kureha's death, Ryu learns from Murai that the raiders were from Vigoor, so he stows away on an airship bound for the empire.
Fighting his way through the streets of its capital city, Tairon, Ryu faces several bosses including the three Greater Fiends.
He defeats Alma in a battle that wrecks the city, but leaves her to Rachel's mercy.
Conversely, Rachel cannot bring herself to kill her sister, and instead is taken by Doku, who prepares to sacrifice her in a ritual to enhance Alma's power.
With Alma's help Ryu rescues Rachel and destroys Doku's spirit, but with his dying breath Doku casts the blood curse on Ryu.
The only way for Ryu to lift the curse is to kill the emperor, so he storms the palace, defeating Marbus who bars his way to the emperor's personal realm.
Two successive boss fights must be completed to destroy the Emperor and reclaim the Dark Dragon Blade—once this is accomplished his realm starts to destruct.
Ryu must then be maneuvered up a series of ledges to escape, but in the process he loses his grip on the Dark Dragon Blade.

The fallen Blade lands at the feet of a figure, the Dark Disciple, who has been shadowing Ryu throughout the game.
Taking the Blade, the Disciple reveals himself to be the clan leader Murai.
He admits that the raid on Hayabusa village was part of his plan to restore the Blade's evil power, using souls harvested by Ryu.
Drawing on the Blade, Murai transforms himself, setting the stage for the final boss fight.
Ryu defeats Murai and shatters the Blade with the True Dragon Sword.
Victorious, Ryu turns himself into a falcon and flies to the Hayabusa village.
In the game's final scene he places the Dragon Eye, used to enhance his sword, on Kureha's tombstone and disappears into the night.

Ninja Gaiden features a large selection of weapons for Ryu to wield, each with advantages and disadvantages that affect the way the player approaches combat.
These include one-handed swords, such as the Dragon Sword and Kitetsu, which grant quick attacks, and a move called the "Flying Swallow", which allows Ryu to leap and slash through enemies.
In addition these light weapons allow Ryu to smash foes into the ground and perform his signature Izuna Drop—a spinning piledriver.
Heavy weapons, such as the Dabilahro and the Unlabored Flawlessness, are slow but cause more damage to opponents.
With flails and staves, the player can string together long sequences of attacks.
To engage distant foes Ryu can throw shuriken and shoot arrows.
In addition to using standard melee techniques, Ryu can employ essences—colored globes of energy that are released on the death of enemies and absorbed into Ryu's body when he comes into proximity with them.
Essences have an important role in general gameplay, acting to heal Ryu, restore his magic, or increase his cash.
However, in combat the player can cause Ryu to deliberately draw in essences, which can then be used to unleash powerful attacks known as Ultimate Techniques that allow Ryu to damage enemies without taking damage himself.
These techniques deal heavy damage and make Ryu immune to injury for a short time.

Ninja Gaiden also provides Ryu with magical spells in the form of ninpo spells.
When activated by the player, these make Ryu cast fireballs, ice storms, or bolts of lightning.
Functioning in a similar manner to the bombs or grenades of shooter action games, these spells allow Ryu to inflict heavy damage on enemies while potentially avoiding damage himself.
But, dissatisfied with their programmed visual effects, the game's director Tomonobu Itagaki wanted to deter players from using ninpo. He therefore tweaked the game to award bonus points when players cleared stages without employing magic.
For Ryu's defense, the player has two options.
First, Ryu can stand still and attempt to block attacks.
However, certain enemies can break his guard—either through particularly strong attacks or by grappling him.
The second option is to make Ryu dodge, by rolling away from the attack in a maneuver called "reverse wind".
