In fact, almost every single pixel has been kept true to the originals.
The essence of this trilogy of games has been maintained. These kinds of games need a broad and varied roster, but not all fans will find recycling that big of an issue, as there are enough faces to choose from to keep most happy, and it's also easy to find a game mode that suits the way you want to play. With regards to the point about expanding the roster, the collection is heavy on recycling in the second and third games, aside from a few interesting additions. They decided to instead focus on reinforcing the great moments of the story, making slight changes to the mechanics and then polishing them, experimenting with style (like the beat 'em up sections that we experienced occasionally in the third game), and expanding the roster. While the first Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm embraced the idea of large, open maps where you could tackle different missions, the following instalments reduced the sense of freedom, making it more of a linear game. However, there are also certain weaknesses, one of them being the well-documented fact that the games took a step back during the trilogy. Whether you're an unconditional fan of the young ninja or even if you just like what you've seen and want more, you should know that the story is left unfinished, since the three games only show the events starting with he first chapter of the anime, running through until one of the key moments in the Great Ninja War, but without showing the resolution of both the war or the eternal conflict between Naruto and Sasuke. It's surprising to see that Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 is left out, the first title in this console generation (as well as seeing release on PC), which is one of the main negative points about the package.
Here we have a reunion of the first three main games of the saga, showing the events of Masashi Kishimoto's manga, leaving the door open to the grand finale that readers saw in November 2014, after 15 years of the journey.
Developer CyberConnect2 and publisher Bandai Namco released Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm on PS3 back in 2008, the first instalment in a series of games that would culminate a generation later where we learn the whole story of this troublemaking ninja with aspirations to become the great leader (Hokage) of his village.Īfter having gotten all of the different entries in the series, and even compilations and remasters, it's now the Nintendo Switch's turn to receive a game in the form of Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Trilogy. Naruto video games have achieved a rhythm that should by now be familiar to FIFA players.
