Dubbed Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm, the game will apparently evolve the head-to-head fighting in previous Ultimate Ninja titles and have players battle in full 3D environments. Most of series’ trademark elements will return, including the ability to run on water and up walls, perform various acrobatic and ground attacks, and of course unleash powerful Justus by meeting certain requirements. The game will also support the usual two-player multiplayer, and feature a cast of 25 playable characters.
New to Ultimate Ninja Storm will be the ability to freely roam around the Hidden Leaf Village and Forest of Death, exploring the environments and undertaking more than 100 missions. Missions will range from humble races and delivery errands, to large-scale battles against massive foes.
“Naruto’s PlayStation 3 system debut truly blurs the line between gaming and animation to deliver the most immersive and authentic interactive experience the franchise has ever seen,” said Todd Thorson, Director of Marketing and Public Relations with Namco Bandai Games America, Inc. “Players will marvel at the game’s jaw-dropping graphics, fast-paced 3D fighting and new open-world exploration as they experience a classic Naruto storyline with all of their favourite characters and environments.”
Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm will be released exclusively on the PlayStation 3 in America during their Fall season. At this stage a PAL release is still pending.
