#NARUTO STORM 4 REVIEW SERIES#

In terms of technical performance, I was surprised with how solid the port of the game was on the Nintendo Switch. If youвЂ™re expecting to play as anyone other than the main trio or villains of the movieвЂ¦ well, letвЂ™s hope we can get a Boruto Ultimate Ninja Storm game soon. Adding a handful of Boruto characters was fine and all, but now that the anime has been on for nearly three years, we could have gotten a few new plot points or fighters. I think the only real oversight that Cyber2Connect could have had was that it needed to add just a few more exclusive characters to the mix.

The addition of new costumes is a nice touch, as the original game wasnвЂ™t released back when the currently airing Boruto series debuted. While the two вЂњnewвЂќ villains have been repurposed from their boss fights from the expansion, itвЂ™s still great to be able to play as them now. What the other versions donвЂ™t have (rather, youвЂ™ll have to pay extra for them on other platforms) is the inclusion of two more fighters, Momoshiki and Kinshiki as well as Boruto era costumes for 11 supporting cast characters. Hey, donвЂ™t you talk to BorutoвЂ™s dad like that, Boruto. The scenario plays out a truncated version of the Boruto film, which is a teaser for the Boruto: Naruto Next Generations series that would come out in 2017. This expansion centers around BorutoвЂ™s dadвЂ¦ erm, NarutoвЂ™s son Boruto Uzumaki and his team of Sarada Uchiha and Mizuki. In addition to the story DLC (as well as the character DLC that includes the Sound Five) is the addition of the Road to Boruto DLC expansion, which was also included in the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One releases. With over 120 characters (admittedly, there are quite a few variants of the more important characters ala Dragon Ball FighterZ), thereвЂ™s bound to be a favorite team youвЂ™ll choose if you donвЂ™t want to spend time unlocking characters again, thereвЂ™s a DLC early unlock pack that will unlock most content instantly, though keep in mind itвЂ™s a $2.99 price tag. All in all, itвЂ™s a meaty package that will last you dozens of hours. The Switch version of Ultimate Ninja 4 includes all previous DLC, which means youвЂ™ll get story modes focusing on Naruto, Shikamaru, and Gaara. If you miss the days of breaking boxes for items and accepting random requests, thereвЂ™s an Adventure mode you can head into that takes place after the events of the main story (which act as an epilogue for the original series as a whole).

I do enjoy the streamlined approach of the main storyвЂ™s execution, as you can play through battles and cutscenes in order rather than taking breaking up the action to navigate an overworld.

Look, if you came into this review not knowing Tobi was Obito, I donвЂ™t know what to tell you.
