When the game starts, it determines the resolution that's most appropriate for your setup: either 1920x1080 (1080p) or 3840x2160 (4k). 1440p resolution is not supported, and the game appears to be locked at 60 frames per second. |
| + | |||
| + | In most games, you're able to change the resolution via in-game settings. Not so in The Ninja Gaiden Master Collection. To set a specific resolution, you have to open the game's properties from your Steam library, and manually enter the resolution you want ("720p", "1080p" or "4k") in the text field of Launch Options.}}{{Refurl|url=https://kotaku.com/ninja-gaidens-new-pc-port-is-one-of-the-laziest-i-have-1847068293|title=Ninja Gaiden's New PC Port Is One Of The Worst I Have Ever Seen|date=2021-06-11|snippet=It doesn’t have resolution options in the game’s menu. Nor does it have a pre-game launcher. If you’d like to change the resolution—and only three are available: 1280 x 720, 1920 x 1080 and 3840 x 2160—then you need to get into the game’s properties then launch options in Steam and...pick it from a drop-down menu there?}}{{Refurl|url=https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/ninja-gaiden-trilogy-now-flipping-out-and-killing-people-on-pc|title=Ninja Gaiden Master Collection is out now {{!}} Rock Paper Shotgun|date=2021-06-11|snippet=It's a double shame that the PC release sounds a bit pants. If runs windowed by default, without an option to change that - you have to click the maximise button on the window.

Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge is a singleplayer hack and slash action-adventure game in the Ninja Gaiden series, developed by Team Ninja and Koei Tecmo and published by Koei Tecmo. It is a re-release of the 2012 console game of the same name, which was itself a remake of the 2012 console game Ninja Gaiden 3 with additional content and features.
Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge was released on Steam on June 10, 2021, in the Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection, which also includes Ninja Gaiden Σ and Ninja Gaiden Σ2. Although the collection was praised for its gameplay, upgrade to 4K, and performance at that resolution, its launch was marred by critics' and players' perception that the PC port was "bare-bones".[1][2][3][4][5] Commonly criticized were the lack of graphics options, the absence of keyboard and mouse support, and the inability to change the game resolution without using command line arguments.[4][6][7][8][9] On July 12, 2021, the collection was updated with basic graphics options including in-game resolution selection.[10]
This release does not include the "Clan Battle" online PvP mode or the online co-op mode of "Ninja Trials" from the 2012 version.[11]

- "And while I wouldn't ever want to play a game like this with keyboard and mouse, I know some weirdos do, and that's not an option here."
- "Throw in the fact that a warning on the store page says it, “Requires a controller in order to play. Playing with a keyboard and mouse isn’t supported,” (you can’t even navigate the main menu with your keyboard) and you’re looking at one of the most useless PC ports of all time, maybe ever from a major publisher."
- "There's another small disappointment for PC gamers: Yasuda said that the Steam port only works with a controller, and does not have keyboard/mouse support. I think the vast majority of Ninja Gaiden players would prefer to play on a controller, anyway, but it is odd to see a PC port in 2021 without at least cursory keyboard/mouse mapping."
- "It does not support mouse and keyboard, forcing PC users to play with a controller. A controller is perhaps preferable for Ninja Gaiden, but to not provide the option of mouse and keyboard is shocking."

- "But perhaps the most remarkable aspect of this PC port is how you change the resolution. When the game starts, it determines the resolution that's most appropriate for your setup: either 1920x1080 (1080p) or 3840x2160 (4k). 1440p resolution is not supported, and the game appears to be locked at 60 frames per second. In most games, you're able to change the resolution via in-game settings. Not so in The Ninja Gaiden Master Collection. To set a specific resolution, you have to open the game's properties from your Steam library, and manually enter the resolution you want ("720p", "1080p" or "4k") in the text field of Launch Options."
- "It doesn’t have resolution options in the game’s menu. Nor does it have a pre-game launcher. If you’d like to change the resolution—and only three are available: 1280 x 720, 1920 x 1080 and 3840 x 2160—then you need to get into the game’s properties then launch options in Steam and...pick it from a drop-down menu there?"
- "It's a double shame that the PC release sounds a bit pants. If runs windowed by default, without an option to change that - you have to click the maximise button on the window. And if you want to change the screen resolution, you have to... go into the game's Properties menu in your Steam Library, and select screen options from there? (Genuinely, this solution is listed on the Steam page.) What is this."

- Tested by running the game and setting up a steep angle to check if textures become blurry. That was not the case here indicating some kind of AF being forced. I'd guess it to be 4x.
