Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Revolution is a ridiculous name for a game. Let’s get that out of the way.
But really, fans of the jumpsuit-clad ninja are accustomed to the fantastical. The long-running Japanese property is full of colorful characters and plotlines, and the latest patch of screenshots from the new fighting game showcases just how close the looks of the anime and game really are.
The people at Saiyan Island have a gallery of screenshots from Namco Bandai (or maybe Bandai Namco) and CyberConnect2, focusing on the Third Raikage. This is the main who once took on 10,000 shinobi for three days, and stands as the father of the current Cloud village leader, Ay. So, he’s pretty important.
The brawler will include more than 100 characters, a variety of special moves to use in combat, and dozens of unique stages based of off the show. There’s no exact date, but you can expect to dig into Ultimate Ninja Storm Revolution sometime this year on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
