Naruto Ninja Storm 3 Available for Pre-Order

Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 3 is currently available for pre-order on both Amazon and GameStop, although the release date is set to March 31st 2013 – a typical filler date for TBA releases occurring in Spring. It's no coincidence that this pre-order bump is following right behind the release of the mock-up box art for the intended consoles.

For a more indepth look at the validity of the March 31st claim, Saiyan Island examined past release dates for all Naruto titles. Normally, developer CyberConnect2 releases their titles on a Tuesday, but March 31st is a Sunday. Even though the release date isn't accurate, Saiyan Island believes that March will be the likely release month for Storm 3.

Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 3 is listed with a retail price of $59.99 and is slated to launch for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in Japan, North America, and Europe.
