It simply consists of walking through areas from the show and talking to characters before getting into a fight. The only thing that somewhat lets Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 down is its boring exploration elements. Knowing exactly when to use a substitution, chakra dash and more means that to actually get good at the game is going to take some practise. It’s all about the big spectacle fights here though, and developer CyberConnect2 absolutely nails it here.Īlthough the gameplay may seem like it just consists of mashing the attack button and occasionally throwing out a jutsu, there’s actually a lot more strategy involved than you might think. Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 also added a few different mechanics, such as being able to fight on walls during some story fights, and some horde-battle-esque moments. The main story mode is easily the best in the series thanks to a much more breakneck pace than previous titles. Finally getting to see Naruto vs Sasuke in a playable format was, and still is, absolutely incredible. This is especially true of Ultimate Ninja Storm 4, which adapts the final chapters of the series in a big way.

Naruto has had quite a few game adaptations in its history, but none have captured the feel of both the manga and anime quite as well as the Storm games have. Now, four years later, it’s now available on the Nintendo Switch complete with the Road to Boruto expansion and some small new features.īefore we talk about the quality of the port to the portable home console, let’s discuss Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 as a game. There isn’t a Naruto game out there that’s better than Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4, and that’s been an established fact since it released back in 2016.
