The demo for Ninja Gaiden 2 has sneaked its way on to Xbox Live Marketplace.

Initially Major ‘Larry Hryb’ Nelson had whispered to gamers that the demo, released in Japan last week, would be available for the remaining Xbox Live regions except India and Germany later this week.

However, he later updated his blog to inform gamers that the demo is not available in Germany, India, Canada and the US. He did assure us that he is “going to have a few conversations with some people about this.”

Ninja Gaiden 2 will be released across Europe this Friday. It is already out in the US and Canada.
