Namco Bandai released some new information on the upcoming Xbox 360 and PS3 rendition of Naruto’s Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 and the highlight of the game comes in the form of its online features.
According to the press release…
Staying true to the anime series, NARUTO SHIPPUDEN: Ultimate Ninja STORM 2 immerses players in the mythical world of ninja with new expansive environments, exciting plot twists, explosive battle systems and stunning visuals. The game will also feature a new and improved Support Character system where players can call upon allies for help in battle.
The online modes include playing in matches against opponents in quick matches or custom matches or getting serious with a ranked match. Let’s just hope the lag is handled better in this game than some other fighting games *cough*Tekken 6*cough*. Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 for the Xbox 360 and PS3 – making it the 11,275th game in the series – will be available this fall.
