NinjaGaiden4 launched with a record-setting display event over Miami featuring gameplay streamed from a helicopter.
Sky-high Record Stunt
On 2023-10-21, Xbox, Koei Tecmo, and Team Ninja unveiled NinjaGaiden4 with an aerial stunt. Two helicopters participated: one carried a 26-foot-wide screen, and the other transported Emmanuel 'Master' Rodriguez and artist Swae Lee. This setup resulted in a Guinness World Records title for the largest video game display flown by helicopter, showcasing gameplay as Yakumo battled enemies.
Technology and precision ensured a seamless broadcast from Rodriguez's helicopter to the screen, marking a unique celebration inspired by NinjaGaiden4's themes.
