While the release for "Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 4" has been yet again pushed back, this time to February 2016, video game developer Cyber Connect 2 has released some new information about more cast players will have access to.
As seen on "Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 4" Facebook page, a new shot of a three-way battle is occurring. The battle looks like it is between Obito Uchiha, Madara Uchiha and Kakashi Hatake. According to the page, the fight will be occurring in the game's story mode as a reenactment of the fight between the three Legendary Leaf Ninjas.
As exciting as that sounds, it seems that there are new revealed characters as well for the next installment of "Ultimate Ninja Storm". Anime News Network reports that a translated version of "Shonen Jump" has stated that Perfect Susanoo forms for Shishui Uchiha and Itachi Uchiha will be in the game.
This is big news since the characters are reportedly going to be "Ultimate Ninja Storm 4" exclusive characters as series creator Masashi Kishimoto has designed them just for this game. According to the information translated from "Shonen Jump", it seems that Shishui's Susanoo will be green while Itachi's will be red instead of the purple version seen in the anime.
Neither of these characters appeared in the manga or anime, and while this isn't the first time Kishimoto has given exclusive content for a game, it's a nice addition.
Currently, "Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 4" boasts of the biggest roster for any game in the series, and rumors are circulating that there still may be more additions before the games are released. One such rumor, which has been recently confirmed, is the addition of characters from the "Boruto: The Naruto Movie" timeline. Gamers who will be able to get a copy during the launch date in Japan will be able to play as lead characters Boruto and Sarada, as well as incarnations of Naruto and Sasuke as they appear in the film.
Gamers will also have access to various uniforms for characters who do not have alternate versions. Characters like Sakura and Hinata will have multiple new costumes, some of which are not seen in the anime or manga.
Originally, "Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 4" was to be a PlayStation 4 exclusive. However, recent news stated that versions for the Xbox One and PC will be made available. The new release date for Japan is Feb. 4, Feb. 5 for Europe and Feb. 9 for North America.
