When the tree leaves dance, one shall find flames…

Naruto: Slugfest lets players step into Naruto’s anime world, brought to life in a rich 3D open world rendering that encourages players to explore in every nook and cranny as well as experiencing animated in-game cutscenes with the original voice actors. As Naruto returns home to the Hidden Leaf Village after training with Jiraiya, he is ready for action, allowing players to immerse themselves in the journey of Naruto fighting alongside his friends as they travel through the Shippuden Arcs. The story can be enjoyed with others using the game’s Running Commentary function to leave comments and reactions for other players.

In Naruto: Slugfest, players can choose among four unique character classes to play throughout their journey as a Hidden Leaf Shinobi. These include the hardy, broadsword-wielding Earth Keeper, the medical pyromancer, Blazing Lotus, the high mobility and surprise attacking Thunder Assassin, and the agile ranged attacker, Wind Shooter. No matter the class, players will seek to master their ninjutsu abilities by defeating enemies and completing story, team, and side missions for Hidden Leaf Village. For each character class, players can choose and level various ninjutsu abilities through their respective ninjutsu skill trees and can equip gear for their characters to upgrade. Throughout story gameplay progression, daily check-ins, and the game’s Partner and Recruitment System, players can collect their favorite Naruto series characters as powerful allies and enlist their skills to assist players in turning the tides in their favor. Full screen techniques, dynamic combat mechanics, and the intense, button-smashing Slugfest battles will get the blood of any Ninja pumping!

Shinobi should always be aware of their surroundings. Through advanced cartoon rendering in an anime style, Naruto’s world comes to life masterfully including changes such as the warmth of day and darkness of night with dynamic lighting, shadow effects, and color saturation. Shinobi need to be prepared for anything and carry out their ninja way in any weather. But be wary, legend tells of massive beasts behind the changes in the weather!

With like-minded allies, players can tackle the Story Mission following the Naruto Shippuden storyline, Team Missions, Chunin Missions, Ninja Scrolls, Tower Missions, and even massive guild wars. These trying times and sacrifices build strong bonds that will carry players throughout their Shinobi adventures.
