I shouldn’t even be writing this preview Naruto X Boruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Connections. I told CyberConnect2 producer Masaya Yoshizawa that I wouldn’t be covering the game if he didn’t beat me in our demo match at Summer Game Fest. “I didn’t want him to make it easy for me,” he admitted Naruto Beginner and newcomer to the long-running anime-based arena fighter series in hopes that it makes me enjoy the game more while not getting my ass kicked. Nonetheless, he let me narrowly beat him two rounds in a row with perfect precision, and I ended up having so much fun that I’ll tell you about it anyway.
Coming to PlayStation, Xbox, Switch and PC. Naruto X Boruto is a 3D fighting game about landing combos to increase the transform meter, and it carries on the tradition of its predecessor Ultimate ninja storm games. It also pays homage to Masashi Kishimoto’s shōnen manga series about a hyperactive ankle head Trained to be the head ninja of his village. The anime adaptation, which just celebrated its 20th anniversary, became a defining series for an entire generation of children in the late 2000s.
I heard about Naruto but who is Boruto?
“Just because Naruto Uzumaki, the Leaf Village’s number one ankle-headed ninja, has practically completed his journey to become the Hokage (Ninja President) doesn’t mean he and his generation of ninjas live conflict-free lives. Most notably, Leaf Village’s new concerns include raising the next generation of ninjas after the culmination of the great Ninja War. At the forefront of the next generation of ninja is Boruto, Naruto’s equally stubborn son. Much like his father, Boruto has a lot to prove not only as the new main character in the sequel to one of Shonen Jump’s most popular titles, but also as the Hokage’s firstborn child. Luckily the boy is just as moxy as his old man and has a great mentor in Naruto’s best friend Sasuke Uchiha.” — Isaiah Colbert
It was six Ultimate ninja storm Ga mes from 2008, but Naruto X Boruto
“We prioritize the uniqueness of the characters and their abilities over game balance,” Yoshizawa told me through a translator. “But that doesn’t mean we’re not thinking about game balance, which is also important.” He said that doesn’t mean that canonically weaker characters are at a disadvantage, but added that the team still wanted to try and keep the spirit of the original work to respect.
A welcome feature Naruto For beginners like me, there’s a new optional control scheme that simplifies the inputs for powerful attacks. Similar to street fighter 6With optional Dynamic and Modern control schemes, you can start having fun right away instead of waiting until you’ve gone through a learning curve in terms of input recognition and muscle memory. Performing ninjutsu attacks with ease allows me to focus on more tactical things like positioning, blocking, and countering instead. The simplified controls eventually helped me beat Yoshizawa, who claimed to be the best when asked Naruto x Baruto employees in the company.

But apart from the competitive game Naruto X Boruto it’s also about the single player storylines that tie together the most defining moments of both series. I didn’t get a chance to see these in action during my hands-on experience, but at least graphically the game is pretty enough to look at, and the in-game transformations and scripted attack sequences pulled me in. My only real gripe with the moment-to-moment gameplay is that it sometimes felt difficult to target my opponent in a large, open 3D space and that I had to smack the air.
I went into the demo full of expectations Naruto x Baruto I felt impenetrable and instead wanted to immediately dig into 20 years of epic battles, teen fears and ninjas. and unusual filler.
