Batten down the hatches, there’s a storm headed this way. NAMCO BANDAI Games Europe S.A.S. today announced the forthcoming launch of NARUTO™ Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and PlayStation®3, the first game based on the global hit Naruto Shippuden manga and anime to appear on the consoles. Packed with new features and enhancements, a comprehensive character line up and stunning graphics, NARUTO Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 is scheduled for launch across PAL territories in autumn 2010.
Developed by acclaimed Japanese studio CyberConnect2, NARUTO Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 is a tour de force of Naruto thrills and spills. Impressively faithfully to the universe of the anime, the game takes players through the Naruto Shippuden story arc with new battle systems enhancing the gameplay. Players must choose the right companions to fight alongside for a greater chance of winning, and together unleash explosive Team Special Techniques to lay waste to opponents.
Players will meet a host of criminal Akatsuki characters in the game, and in an astonishing story twist even see Sasuke wearing an Akatsuki costume. With the original Japanese voiceover, an almost endless number of unlockables and power ups to discover, a host of brand new environments to explore, two-player offline multiplayer, amazing visuals faithful to the anime, NARUTO Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 is an unmissable tornado of fierce ninja action.
Naruto is the #1 best-selling manga across Europe, with the hit anime TV series currently broadcast worldwide to massive audiences. Since 2003 NAMCO BANDAI Games has been the leading company selling video games based on the Naruto license.
sorry to burst your bubble psls, but its not the first naruto game on any of the consoles…
ultimate storm 1 was on ps3. so umm yeah..
@ tau_caste
the first game based on the global hit Naruto SHIPPUDEN manga and anime to appear on the consoles.,Ultimate Storms subject was based on that saga.
All I want is for this one to have Online Multiplayer and Co-Op Missions or all Missions with the ablitity to be played Co-Op.
I hope it has a good amount of character and special moves as well as online
The 1st Ninja Storm was beautiful but there was no online play, I beat the storyline in 6hours and the combos consisted of O-button mashing. Hopefully we can see improvement in all of these fields and have game play as rich and captivating as the graphics.
Also; there has been many Shippuden titles across the hand-held systems, even the Wii and the PS2. This is the 1st Shippuden title on the PS3 and 360.

“the first game based on the global hit Naruto SHIPPUDEN manga and anime to appear on the consoles”
There are many Shippuden games already out.
Did you guys ever notice whenever they make mention of Xbox it’s never simply xbox360, there’s always some long extension to make it look better than it actually is?For example,”Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft”
and Oh yea PlayStation®3 too -.-
As if the games not going to be on PlayStation. Who started the $@#% Storm series.
Ultimate Storm is awesome but my only complaint was that there were only a small amont of characters to pick from. l hope they put more characters in this and PLEASE put in Sasori
@Desh
yeah, i agree not even offline co op vs…
I must confess I was disappointing in the story mode, they strayed from the original PlayStation “kick -arse” story mode to something straight “booty” I’m not talking about booty that you like, if need be booty filled with gas and natural toxics -.-
@ Desh & @ Shadowjin
Yea, give us some replay value, if this game goes online. Heaven itself will cry tears of joy
