later years where Naruto is a well on his way to being a full-fledged ninja,
you play through stories based in both time lines for gamers and fans to enjoy.

cards that can be customized for online play, each card comes with a special
skill that can come in handy to gain the upper hand playing against people
online. Through the entire story and game experience you get a feel for the
manga and the anime and it expressed perfectly through the main story line. The
incredible graphics come shining through in the unique battles, incredible
fight moves and massive battles from iconic characters in the Naruto universe.

get into, people who aren’t die-hard fans probably won’t be picking this off
the shelf but the game is fun and easy to get into.
