Best Outfits to Unlock First

Not every outfit in Shinobi: Art of Vengeance is easy to grab. Some require hidden keys or secret bosses, while others can be collected early with a little exploration.

  • Fire Raider – Found in Lantern Festival, this is one of the first secret chest outfits you can pick up without needing extra tools.

  • Silent Wasp – Hidden in ENE Corp Laboratory, but accessible once you’ve unlocked elevators and gates.

  • Sakura Slayer – Available for purchase once you’ve turned in enough Oboro Relics. At 8,000 Gold, it’s one of the more affordable shop unlocks.

If you’re aiming to expand Joe’s wardrobe quickly, these three are the fastest to collect without endgame requirements.

Changing outfits in Shinobi: Art of Vengeance is simple once unlocked. Outfits add variety and personality to Joe’s look, with some tied to secret chests and others to in-game shops. Completionists will need to explore every level, collect relics, and take on hidden challenges to unlock the full wardrobe.
