Players can select from 14 key characters taken straight from the anime, including Naruto Uzumaki, the young ninja-in-training, and his two ninja-school classmates Sakura and Sasuke. With its opulent visual style and broad range of gameplay modes Naruto: Ultimate Ninja is a game for arcade-fighter and Naruto fans alike. Four gameplay modes - story, mission, free battle and practice - give players a chance to delve into the twisting plots of Naruto, take on the teasing mission tasks, fight 1-on-1 against friends or hone their skills, knowing that a ninja is nothing without practice and discipline.
