Naruto ninja magic on Xbox 360

 

To have witnessed ninja student Naruto in action is to become a lifelong fan. Believe us when we tell you that “Naruto: Rise of a Ninja” is being created by fans for fans.

Naruto’s enchanting home of Konoha Village is presented in its entirety, exclusively for Xbox 360 for gamers to live and breathe. With Rise of a Ninja spinning like a shuriken in the disc drive you’ll accompany Naruto Uzumaki through exploits based on the first 80 episodes of the hit animation series.

Although based on a cult Japanese animation show Naruto for Xbox 360 is being developed in North America by French publisher Ubisoft. However these guys are Naruto maniacs whose dream has been to realise Naruto’s unique ninja lifestyle as a wildly entertaining videogame. Everything included in Rise of a Ninja is approved by Studio Pierrot, creators of the original animation series. Attention to detail extends to the inclusion of the original voice actors from the TV show.

Our recent demonstration of the game by Ubisoft showed Naruto approach master Kakashi for instruction. Kakashi-sensei challenged Naruto to run vertically up a tree trunk, requiring ninja magic to perform, activated by a Hand Seal using motions on both analogue sticks. We also saw Naruto leap between the trees at hair-raising speed in pursuit of another mission to fight his famous rival student Neji Hyuga.

Combat in Naruto: Rise of a Ninja is ultra fast with magic attacks unlocking hard-hitting combos or strikes focused on enemy weak spots. Battles can be taken onto Xbox LIVE versus friends, with many popular Naruto characters to choose from.

This autumn we’re supremely confident Naruto: Rise of a Ninja will give fans of the series everything you could wish for.
