    The modern Ninja Gaiden trilogy — Ninja Gaiden (2004), Ninja Gaiden II (2008), and Ninja Gaiden 3 (2012) — featured concept art by a mix of in-house and freelance artists under the direction of Team Ninja, a division of Tecmo (later Tecmo Koei, now Koei Tecmo).

    • Masaki Hirooka – Returned for additional design work.

    • Kouichi Kimura – Concept artist, particularly for enemies and environments.
