Bored by playing so many crummy video games, a gamer discovers a wildly popular virtual reality game that launches him into the adventure of a lifetime.

A team of assassins exacts a bloody retribution on Joe Logan – a former ninja who escaped his clan – and his family for betraying their ancient code. Rising from his seeming "death," Joe will re-emerge as his former self – Ninja Kamui – to avenge his family and friends and bring down the very clan that made him.
