Evaluation

Mark of the Ninja originally launched as a complete stealth game with optional DLC (Dosan's Tale). On October 9, 2018, Klei Entertainment released Mark of the Ninja: Remastered, a 4K-updated version that bundled in all Special Edition DLC content — representing the definitive packaging of everything the studio had created for the game. A bug-fix patch followed on October 19, 2018, backporting fixes from the Remastered edition to the original version. There have been no developer communications since that patch, no unreleased DLC, and no announcements of future content. The game launched as a complete package and all subsequent content (the Remastered upgrade, the Special Edition DLC) has been delivered. The game is fully complete.
