You spoke, and we have listened. Disc Ninja New Physics update introduces something many of you asked for – new physics mechanics for all of your throwing pleasures!
A gentle breeze over the World of Disc Ninja!
Disc throwing physics was often covered in your reviews and various feedback forms we received after the premiere. And while plenty of you liked how the game works, we have seen opinions that it should be changed! And so, we decided to gather our best shamans and summon new winds to carry your discs further and make them more responsive to your own techniques.
A keen mind to oversee the effects
But you don’t need to take our word for it. To ensure that the disc physics is accurate, we were joined by a professional disc golfer. Together we have tried to find the most optimal solution to satisfy experienced disc golfers and complete amateurs.
A willing hand to check the results
Whether you’re a new player, a Disc Ninja veteran, or someone who didn’t enjoy the game as much as we hoped for, we urge you to try the results of our work. Furthermore, to make it even easier for you to share your feedback with us, we launched a brand new Discord server, where you’re more than welcome to come, share your feelings with us, and hopefully stay longer. You can find the server here.
A soft whisper hanging in the wind
But wait, there’s more... Can you hear it? Listen carefully. There is a sound reverberating softly in the wind. What does it say? ‘New maps,’ it hums? ‘New discs’ it buzzes? ‘A more classical approach to Disc Golf? Coming soon? Ah, but it’s gone. A moment has passed, and now only silence lingers. Well, we’ll see each other soon enough and find out what it means for the world of Disc Ninja.
Steam VR Fest kicked off today, and that means Disc Ninja just received a 40% discount! Be sure to secure your copy while the offer lasts! Steam VR Fest ends on July 25.
We are also happy to tease the New Physics Update which is scheduled to release later this week. With new winds blowing over the magical world of Disc Ninja, the players will have more control over the throws, as well as more leeway to use their own techniques. All the changes were overseen and consulted with a professional Disc Golf player.
Join our brand new Discord server, stay in touch with the devs, fellow players and get exclusive access to future betas!

Also, we are currently working on a number of improvements to Disc Ninja and hope to have more to say soon. Nothing left to say, but to encourage you to train and keep improving your skills!
You never know when you might need 'em...
In addition to the Pico Store, the game is also available on Steam VR, Oculus Rift and Quest. Thanks to the crossplay feature, users of different platforms (within one region) can play together in multiplayer mode.
Ninjas! We’ve made it through the trials of Early Access and are ready for a Full Release! We’re excited to finally give you the game we imagined from the start. This momentous milestone comes with lots of content, so let’s recap what’s in store for you!
Lights, camera, action!
The map roster has been vastly expanded: from the initial six in Early Access to fifteen. Some of the stages are bigger than anything previously present in Disc Ninja. We kept making maps non-linear and worth exploring: it’s up to you to discover alternate routes, find the carefully hidden collectibles, and find the best approach to each challenge. Your feedback to map design has been positive from the beginning and it gave us the drive to keep them fresh and interesting.
Introducing Rush – a new game mode
While Disc Golf’s ruleset is well-established, we experimented with various gameplay modes and came to interesting results. Disc Ninja turned out to be plenty of fun when we simply tried to race one another across the maps. This lead to the creation of Rush – a new game mode focused on one thing only: reaching the Golden Dragon first!
Planning and map knowledge will serve you well but don’t hesitate to jump in: throw quickly, look for shortcuts and overtake your opponents!
Cross-play multiplayer is here!
In order to properly experience these new features, the Full Release comes with a 4-players multiplayer mode. And to make up for the time you had to wait for it, Disc Ninja comes out of the gate with enabled cross-play. PC VR players will be able to test their skills against Meta (Oculus) Quest and Rift users alike.
Playing together is an awesome way to experience Disc Ninja! We’re excited to finally share this mode with you so you can challenge friends and strangers alike. We made sure to include customization options for you to tailor the games to your preferences.
Key features of the full release: • 15 maps worthy of a Shinobi Master • Polished disc throwing mechanics that are easy-to-learn, but hard-to-master; • Two game modes – Classic disc-golf experience and manic race-like Rush; • Multiplayer mode that allows up to 4 ninjas to compete against each other; • Unlockable collectibles, including unique ninja costumes and disc designs to add splendor to your multiplayer games; • Various ways to play the game: standing, seated or room-scale.
Last, but definitely not least, we’re grateful to all our players for their feedback. Each piece of comment, critique, or assessment helped guide us towards the best possible Disc Ninja experience. Thank you, good luck, and have fun!
Celebrating the Oculus Quest release and the bright future of Disc Ninja
Ninjas, today we celebrate the Oculus Quest release of Disc Ninja, but that doesn’t mean we have forgotten about Steam - far from it! While the VR market remains fragmented, with plenty of different devices, our goal remains singular – to share Disc Ninja with as many players as it is doable. After all, without you, any of this wouldn’t be possible in the first place.
Without further ado, it’s time to unveil what the future holds for Disc Ninja on Steam. And let us tell you - it’s looking bright!
What new features Disc Ninja on Steam will receive later this year:
New maps – with various difficulty levels, filled to the brim with deadly traps, hidden shortcuts, and breathtaking sights to behold
New collectibles to gather! Soon you will be able to expand your Ninja wardrobe and showcase your style to other ninjas.
New game modes – the main principle of the game remains the same, but things will get hectic!
Other surprises we don’t want to share just yet but will unveil in time.
We’re working hard on bringing these features to you as soon as possible! But before we do, we need to test it on various devices and have 100% certainty that you have the best possible experience at your disposal. Stay strong, Ninjas, and soon we will celebrate Steam updates aplenty.
