History[]

Ninja Gaiden Sigma[]

Special Assault Teams were established to hunt down and eliminate anything perceived to be a threat to the sacred Holy Vigoor Empire. Many times over they were successful in their mission until the day when they received reports of a hostile malefactor crossing the border into Vigoor via zeppelin. A special task force of over 30 SATs under General Dynamo were deployed to eliminate this threat, over seen by Gamov who may have leaked this information. Once on the Zeppelin they attempted to ambush their target Ryu Hayabusa, but the skilled Master Ninja proved to much for them. It was a massacre as Ryu wiped out every single SAT commando on the zeppelin to face General Dynamo on top of the zeppelin in a final showdown.

Many hundreds more SATs would attempt to stop Ryu as he infiltrated the capital city of Tairon.

Strategy[]

  • SATs are one of the easier enemies in the game, and a welcome sight after the first two chapters, especially on higher difficulties. All you need to do is watch out for their grab attack.
  • They can be defensive at times but are easy to bait out of a defensive stance by making them switch weapons and chase after you or breaking their guard with strong attacks. Other than that they are easy enemies and usually used to hone your skills early in the game before it becomes more difficult with the introduction of Bast Fiends and Black Spider Ninjas.
