are you kidding me? how has it been done before, off the top of my head i cant think of a single game that would be even remotely similar

dynasty warriors? genji days of the blade? lol. yakuza ishin*? (not even localized)

Might be before your time but back in ps1/ps2 days there were tons of similar ninja games. Ninja Gaiden  or Tenchu or even Bushido Blade. Heck even the true crime franchise.
