Anime-themed online multiplayer action game

NARUTO X BORUTO Ultimate Ninja STORM CONNECTIONS represents yet another iteration within the massively popular Naruto franchise. Loyal players of this premium action-packed series will not be left disappointed, as it boasts detailed anime characters, intense battles, and an in-depth storyline.

Similar to other popular iterations, such as Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4, NARUTO X BORUTO Ultimate Ninja STORM CONNECTIONS heavily focuses on nail-biting battle sequences and a wide array of upgradable skill sets. Nonetheless, some new additions deserve a closer look. However, it's important to note that this game contains mature content, including violence, which may not be appropriate for younger audiences.

Playable characters

In addition to Naruto, it is now possible to take on the roles of over 130 playable characters, including brothers Indra and Ashura Otsutsuki, dual founders of powerful ninja clans,and more. With that number of available characters, there is little doubt that they will further contribute to the overall storyline.

Updated gameplay elements

The gameplay of NARUTO X BORUTO Ultimate Ninja STORM CONNECTIONS comes with additional game modes designed to keep players completely engaged. Story modes include both History Mode and Special Story Mode. In History Mode, nostalgia-seekers can immerse themselves in the story of Naruto and Naruto Shippudenall in one game. Intense and epic moments from Chunin Exams to the Fourth Great Ninja War are inserted as anime cutscenes and cinematic graphics for you to relish.

As for Special Story Mode, it is not called as such for no reason. This story mode is exclusively created for the game, which comes with an all-original story. The plot revolves around Boruto and two other characters. During the great peace in the Ninja World, Boruto discovers a popular online game called Ninja Heroes and develops a special relationship with Nanashi. Here, their mission to stop Merz from destroying the Ninja World takes off.

Apart from the two unique story modes, the game also features Battle Mode, comprising Free Offline Battle and Network Battle. The Free Battle Mode lets you play in 1P vs 2P battles, survival, tournament, league, and practice games. Network Battle includes a casual match against random players online and a rank match against advanced and competitive players within your rank. With Battle Mode, you can unleash the ninja in you and be the best fighter you can ever be.

Customization options and controls

A game is no longer fun without customization items you can collect and apply to your characters and environment. In NARUTO X BORUTO Ultimate Ninja STORM CONNECTIONS, players can win items as battle rewards to design their battle experience to their liking. These consist of costumes, accessories, stamps, backgrounds, and even character poses. Another improvement that players should watch out for is the inclusion of two control modes. There is Simple Control Mode, which simplifies and automates combos. Recommended for beginners, this mode lets you perform a series of actions with a single click. Normal Control Mode is still at hand for long-time players.

A window to the past

Another unique feature associated with this platform involves the ability for players to view Naruto's past through a series ofcutscenes. These include his famous clash with Sasuke. Of course, the graphics themselves have been updated to provide even more entertainment.

Classic anime action

This latest version has remained true to form regarding its detailed anime scenes, which is a nice touch for traditionalists. However, the graphics themselves are also smoother and much more intricate, which should appeal to an entirely new generation of players.
