Unfortunately, this first entry is underwhelming at best. Being the first game in the series as well (and the only one I hadn’t played), Ultimate Ninja Storm has a lot to live up to. After all, it took Ubisoft, a company with substantially more employees, two games of vastly differing qualities-Path of the Ninja and The Broken Bond-to dish out every piece of Naruto’s younger arc. It may not be the most accurate, small story details and character development may be lost, but if you don’t want to spend months of your life watching and reading the original material this is the best way to experience Naruto’s journey.Ĭovering the entirety of the original series would be no small feat for a developer of CyberConnect 2’s size back in 2008. Taking all four of the main series games in this incredibly long-running series, developer CyberConnect 2 have packaged together the entire journey of Naruto (and even some of Boruto) into one gigantic package for fans and newcomers alike to enjoy.įrom Ultimate Ninja Storm all the way to Ultimate Ninja Storm 4: Road to Boruto, you’ll experience every second of Naruto’s (non-filler) journey in a slightly abridged and streamlined version of events. That’s not to say that it’s a bad cash-grab or a bad product actually, I’d say that Legacy is one of the best cash-grabs/remaster compilations you can buy, granted you’re interested in the franchise.
Ultimate Ninja Storm Legacy is just that: a cash-grab. But when a series as popular as Naruto finishes-despite its numerous shortcomings-fans just want more, and now it’s up to the numerous game developers with access to the license to cash-in on the series one final time. While the character is still kicking (I think) in the narrative successor Boruto, Naruto, for the most part, has finished his journey from knucklehead ninja to Hokage of the Hidden Leaf Village. The traditional story of the twenty-year-long manga Naruto has ended.
