Ninjas, as far as popular culture is concerned, are cold, efficient killers. What better way to make them even deadlier than to take out the human factor and make them into literal death machines? Nothing makes a ninja's arsenal more awesome than some high-tech upgrades! The Cyber Ninja is the ninja of the future, but unlike your typical technologically enhanced assassin they still use the traditional ninja image with either traditional, or upgraded, Stock Ninja Weaponry, and almost never a gun - they're still ninjas after all! To keep with appearances, you can expect these ninjas to have some sort of personal cloaking device and body modifications that would enhance their already superhuman conditioning. Being espionage agents, you can bet that they would be skilled hackers when it comes to information. The heyday of the Cyber Ninja would have been the Eighties, especially with the rise of Cyberpunk mixed with Japan Takes Over the World. These ninjas would often be the perfect agents for high-tech corporate espionage or assassinations in such stories, or could even serve as a mook army for an evil tech corporation. Even after Japan's economic bubble burst, the combination of the ninjas' traditions with futuristic technology is one that sticks with popular culture to this day. A subtrope of Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot. Compare Samurai Cowboy. Will tend to overlap with Street Samurai and Corporate Samurai, but both tropes envelop more specific concepts (the former is a freelancer in a campaign against authority while the latter is a corporate agent and more civilized than the former). NOT related to Ghost Pirate, though a fight between the two would be totally awesome. |

Samurai Jack, naturally, has dabbled in this on a few occasions: In Jack Vs The Ninja, the titular ninja assassin is revealed to be a robot in the end when Jack cuts it down. The Shuriken Ultra-Bot and the Katana Ultra-Bot both fit the bill, being robotic assassins sent to kill Jack. The rest use more contemporary weapons like a flamethrower and a machine gun. |

The Cyber Dragons Trilogy: Has Keiko "Kei" Springs and her mentor, Snake, as two of these. Snake kidnapped her as a child and proceeded to train her as an apprentice assassin for a decade while slowly having parts of her body replaced with advanced cybernetics. The modern Kei is still mostly organic but Snake is a Full-Conversion Cyborg. | |

Olga Gurlukovich in Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty is forced to masquerade as one. Both Raiden and Solidus incorporate elements of the aesthetic as well — Raiden was originally intended to be revealed to be a cyborg in an early draft and elements of this do remain in his character and design, while Solidus uses similar technology to Olga and has some samurai aesthetic flourishes. | |

In Mortal Kombat 11: Having turned herself into a cyborg after allying with Kronika, Frost ups the ante by turning her defeated opponent into a Lin Kuei robo-ninja. While some of the kombatants such as Shao Kahn and Kano are unpleasant to begin with, seeing them turned into robots against their will is jarring. This is the only Fatality in the series that inflicts a Fate Worse than Death rather than just outright killing the victim. In-game banter between the kombatants show that they condemn Frost's decision to cyberize herself and betray her mentor Sub-Zero out of spite. In-story, she continues Sektor's evil work by turning her ex-Lin Kuei comrades into brainwashed robo-ninjas just to rile her ex-mentor for "under-appreciating" her potential and allying with the Shirai Ryu. When he notices what Frost has done, it horrifies Sub-Zero given he was unwillingly robotized in Mortal Kombat 9. | |

Sprawl Trilogy: The short story version of "Johnny Mnemonic" had a cyborg ninja with a monofilament wire in his thumb, disguised as a stereotypical Japanese Tourist. Johnny's new bodyguard Molly Millions kills him by challenging him to an arena fight and exploiting the environment. Neuromancer had a "vat-grown ninja" named Hideo who is also referred to as a "clone" (presumably the product of genetic engineering). He was an exceptionally deadly fighter. Molly tries to take him on, but her leg, broken in an earlier confrontation and not fully healed, breaks again before anything can really happen. |

Olga Gurlukovich in Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty is forced to masquerade as one. Both Raiden and Solidus incorporate elements of the aesthetic as well — Raiden was originally intended to be revealed to be a cyborg in an early draft and elements of this do remain in his character and design, while Solidus uses similar technology to Olga and has some samurai aesthetic flourishes. Raiden eventually becomes one for real in Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots and beyond. Subverted with Jetstream Sam in Metal Gear Rising, as he mainly draws inspiration from samurais and barely has any cybernetic enhancements, instead only having a robotic arm and nothing else. The Parasite Unit in Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain are a whole unit of them. |

Warframe: The warframes themselves are sleek space-armors capable of performing acts of stealth and agility. Ash is the purest example, with his Shuriken and Smokescreen abilities, but all 'frames are like this at least a little. Any one of them can equip shurikens and throw twenty of them in under a second, and even the most tanky 'frames are absurdly mobile and move silently. Stealth is a perfectly viable playstyle, even if it's generally considered too slow to be worth it most of the time. The game is free to play, and its tagline is "Ninjas Play Free." | |

Mortal Kombat: In the wake of Shao Kahn's invasion of Earthrealm in Mortal Kombat 3, the Lin Kuei take to cybernization in order to survive Shao Kahn's soul-ripping Depopulation Bomb at the cost of their souls, among other things creating Cyrax and Sektor and also doing the same thing to Sub-Zero's comrade Smoke. Sub-Zero, the only one who wouldn't go through with this and who was one of the warriors protected by Raiden, wound up getting hunted not only by Shao Kahn, but by his own clan as a result.

Towards the end of Mark of the Ninja you start encountering these when your boss (apparently) turns on you and equips your fellow ninja with technology stolen from the Disc-One Final Boss (technically they're only Ninja wearing Powered Armour rather than being actual cyborgs, but they still have the look and feel of this trope). | |

Kai Leng from Mass Effect 3 is never referred as a ninja but is a cyborg assassin with East Asian roots who fights using a katana. From the multiplayer, there's the N7 Shadow and N7 Slayer, both of whom use Japanese-style swords and their unique powers over regular guns. |

In Super Sentai and Power Rangers, there's a handful of ninja-themed Humongous Mecha: Muteki Shogun, Juushou Fighters and Kakure Daishogun (Shogun Megazord, Battle Borgs and Ninja Megazord) are ninja animal-themed robots. Senpuujin, Gouraijin, Fuuraimaru, and Tenkuujin (Storm Megazord, Thunder Megazord, Ninja Minizord and Samurai Star) are ninja Combining Mecha with power of the storm. Fuuraimaru/the Ninja Minizord later came back in an anniversary series and combined with Gokaioh/Legendary Megazord. Shurikenjin, Bison King, and Lion Ha-Oh are basically an example of ninja using anything that's available to them, as these mecha don't have a unifying theme otherwise. |

The various Imperial Temple Assassins of the Officio Assassinorum in Warhammer 40,000 fit the archetype of the futuristic ninja assassin in various ways. Vindicare Assassins are stealthy, long-range killers that stick to the shadows and hunt prey with silenced sniper rifles. Callidus Assassins are shapeshifters who get close to their targets and eliminate them with poisoned knives, swords that phase in and out of reality, and sidearms that project waves of brain-melting energy. Culexus Assassins are soulless psyker-hunters who can render themselves invisible to the naked eye and punch peoples' souls out with their unarmed strikes (although their primary weapon, a massive helmet-mounted contraption that fires bolts of anti-psychic energy, isn't much of a ninja weapon). Finally, Eversor Assassins are drug-fuelled berserkers who largely eschew stealth in favor of simply killing all the witnesses, ripping their victims apart in melee with swords and claws. | |

Mega Man: Shadow Man from Mega Man 3 was built from the ground up to resemble a ninja. He's even got a Fuuma Shuriken. The Mega Man X series has a few: Magna Centipede from Mega Man X2 is a ninja hacker centipede robot who can teleport, hack X's systems and throw homing magnetic mines for shurikens. He used to be from the Maverick Hunter's 0th Special Unit, who were a covert ops unit. Blast Hornet from Mega Man X3 is a ninja hornet robot who throws exploding bees in place of shuriken. Like Magna Centipede, he also used to be from the 0th Special Unit. Dark Mantis from Mega Man X8 is a ninja mantis robot who throws Battle Boomerangs made of darkness, fires arrows made of darkness, performs Wall Jumps, and has two huge mantis arm blades as his primary melee weapons. X is able to become one via the Shadow Armor in Mega Man X6, allowing him to survive touching Spikes of Doom and cling onto walls, but at the cost of using special weapons or air-dashing. Mega Man Zero has Hidden Phantom, one of the Four Guardians of Copy X and the head of the Neo Arcadian intel unit. He's a Reploid like any of his brethren, and is very ninja-like — using body doubles, Fuuma Shuriken, a tanto and shadow powers to go along with it. Mega Man ZX Advent has Siarnaq, the Chosen One of Model P. (The "P" stands for Phantom, as in the Reploid mentioned above.) He's arguably even more robotic (being mindless and talking in Robo Speak, save for one decidedly Not So Stoic moment if the player dies to him in his Boss Battle) and just as crafty as his Biometal's namesake. Mega Man Battle Network has Dusk (aka Dark Miyabi) and his NetNavi ShadowMan.EXE, proving that even in an advanced world of internets, ninjas are still good and running. |

In The Transformers: More than Meets the Eye, to contrast with the noble, stern Samurai design of Cyclonus, Whirl is given a sleeker ninja-esque design, additionally capable of both popping up and vanishing almost from nowhere. Though he's hardly stealthy. | |

Various stealth specialists in Infinity fit this trope (though in a nod to pragmatism, most carry guns of some sort), but the stand-out examples would have to be Yu Jing's various ninja troops. Or at least, they would be if Yu Jing actually had ninja, which it most certainly does not. | |

Transformers: The Transformers cartoon featured the Nightbird, a twenty foot tall female ninja robot built by the Japanese. The Decepticons make their intent to steal Nightbird and manipulate her for their own ends. Transformers: Animated has Prowl, along with Jazz and Master Yoketron. Prowl is a ninja robot, but he can combine with a sidecar forming a samurai. |
