Naruto Storm 4 1st DLC Pack Details Revealed: Shikamaru’s Tale

Bandai Namco has formally revealed the details for the first DLC pack for Naruto Storm 4, called Shikamaru’s Tale.

Season Pass owners get to play it first on March 8, and everyone else starts to play it on March 15. For $ 9.99, you can play through a three hour scenario based on the events two years after the fourth Shinobi War. Of course, this story campaign focuses on Shikamaru.

Shikamaru is a major player in ninja politics in the Naruto series. It’s most likely this episode will center in the time when he becomes chief coordinator of the Shinobi Union. In this capacity, Shikamaru is the keeper of the peace in the world of ninja, and it is in this capacity that he tries to maintain the peace by investigating, and eventually thwarting, a new villain, Gengo. If this is the case, this will be the first time Gengo appears in any Naruto video game.

There will also be a Hokage costume for Naruto, four combination ultimate techniques, an item set, 10 Ninja Info Cards, 10 Matching Voices, and 10 more costumes. The 10 costumes have five male ninja in dapper suits and five female ninjas in summer wear.

Bandai Namco first revealed details for Naruto Storm 4 DLC packs in Japan last November. They also talked about DLC plans, as well as plans for the future with Boruto, in an earlier video interview. You can watch the official trailer below.
