Abyssal Road is a 100-Battle Challenge in Ninja Gaiden 4: The Two Masters. Entering the Abyssal Road, players will engage in an intense challenge spanning 100 Floors. Abyssal Road is unlocked after completing the DLC "The Two Masters" story.

Overview[]

Each set of 10 Floors is counted as a Layer (except the final, which is 20 Floors). Upon completing a Layer, players can restart their Journey or start from any completed Layer. The higher the Layer, the higher the difficulty with Floors 81-100 being on Master Ninja.

Clearing a Layer with certain score for the first time, will reward the players with NinjaCoins (not usable in this mode) or accessory. You can replay certain Layers to increase your high score and overall your total high score for all Layers.

At the start of each Layer, players can purchase items with set amount of NinjaCoins. The item prices are cheaper than those from the regular game shops. Upon completing a layer, you lose all your current items. Deeper you go into the abyss, the bigger the set amount of NinjaCoins become. For Floor 1-40 you get 4000 NinjaCoin, for Floor 41-80 you get 8000 NinjaCoin, for Floor 81-100 you get 16000 NinjaCoin. You do not get any more coins on Floor 91, those 16000 are for the entirety of 81 to 100.

Special Blood Essence[]

During the abyss run, two types of special Blood Essence appear. Purple orbs fill the Berserk/Dragon Gauge, while Green orbs increase Karma earned for a short period of time. Absorbing special Blood Essence using Ultimate Guidance will charge it to the max level immediately.

The Purple Blood essence has a small chance of spawning after you defeat an enemy.

Green Blood Essence is guaranteed to spawn upon defeating a Frenzied enemy. Obtaining multiple Green Blood Essence orbs will increase your Karma multiplier and extend the duration of the Karma Bonus.

Frenzied Enemies[]

Frenzied enemies capable of performing Mega Power Attacks can appear in the Abyssal Road. Mega Power Attacks cannot be blocked, and can only be dealt with by staggering the enemy with a Bloodraven Form attack. Frenzied enemies will have red horns.

Frenzied enemies will, however, drop Green Blood Essence that grants a Karma Bonus.

Additionally, defeating a Frenzied enemy spreads their madness to other enemies. Defeating the Frenzied enemy first will spread the madness and increase your score, but leaving it for last, will make the fight easier.
