Naruto Storm 4 Pre-order bonuses looking good in motion
The Naruto series is all about wrapped up at this point, (for those of us that read the manga of course) and so it’s about time for the next chapter in the games. The last few Naruto games in the storm franchise have been well received, and have even found a place in the competitive gaming space (E-Sports). The games that were released up to date were all pretty great fighting games and they’ve been tweaked with each iteration to be even more balanced than those that came before them. The version, Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 is shaping up to be the biggest, best looking, and most balanced in the franchise. The Game is set to be released on February 8th 2016 for Xbox One, PS4, and Steam. This will be the first title in the franchise that will be leaving out the last generation of consoles, which means that we should not only have a better looking game, but also a much smoother playing one as well.
like it’s predecessors, Storm 4 will include a pre-order bonus, and possibly more DLC content post release. The bonuses include Boruto, Sarada, Hokage Kakashi, and the last Naruto movie (Sasuke, Sakura, Naruto and Hinata).
