Naruto can visit many different villages, especially his own, and different lands to confront various shinobi from the series. You have the main story which follows Naruto and Sasuke's storylines as they confront various enemies and explore other areas of the world. Not only is this a fighting game, it's also a platforming game. So, if you're worried about playing this game without any prior knowledge or having not played any of the other games, don't fret. By collecting Ninja World Timeline Scrolls throughout the maps, you'll be able to go through the menu and play some of the memorable battles using the various characters such as: Kakashi vs.


Not only that, but after beating the game you'll be able to relive past points in the series through the use of the Ninja World Timeline. If you're picking up this game and don't know much about the Naruto storyline, it's okay because at the beginning of the game (while it's installing for a really long time.) it'll give you an entire recap of the series. When I saw all of the jinchuriki there I was stunned and excited at the same time. You have many different shinobi to choose from from different villages and organizations within the Naruto universe. Some even have different move sets that you can choose from in character select such as Naruto or Sasuke at different points in the series. The roster in this game is simply enormous, with each ninja having their own set of skills, ninjutsu and special abilities. Kakashi looked horrible in Naruto: Rise of a Ninja. The cell-shading is just right and characters look their best in this game, matching how the characters look in the manga and show while not overplaying the hairstyles. It flows nicely and the characters look amazing as they pull off their fighting styles and unique jutsus and ultimate jutsus. The graphics in the game are stunning and perfectly captures the look of the Naruto universe. I've read the manga and knew how the story was going to play out, but to play it is a whole different adventure.
