The second story is much more engaging and focuses on Shisui Uchiha as he tries to save his village from being wiped out by the Hidden Leaf. You probably won’t play through this story more than once unless it’s to acquire S rank on the battles. This story fails to deliver any type of revelations regarding character back story or the reason as to why each member joined the group, with most of them joining simply because they lost a battle where you controlled the character who beat them. The first story revolves around the creation of the evil super group The Akatsuki, showing how a number of members came to join and why The Akatsuki was formed in the first place. These stories are told through animated cutscenes that are produced by the same company that create the anime and two out of the three stories feature battles in between when appropriate.

Outside of the rather disappointing Ninja World Tournament, the game tells three unique stories through the Ninja Escapades mode. This mode features some terrifically animated cutscenes like the previous Storm games and the final boss is epic and challenging. This story has much more heart to it and contains some very interesting, touching and at times weird scenes (there is one scene where Mecha Naruto freaks out because everyone is judging him and it’s pretty creepy).

Mecha Naruto has some funny lines in his story mode, even if his delivery is a bit robotic.Īfter you beat Ninja World Tournament mode once you then unlock a separate story revolving around the game specific character Mecha Naruto, designed by series creator Kishimoto. Areas are blocked off with an outdated energy barrier mechanic, with my path also being blocked by some rocks I could have easily cleared with my standard jump but couldn’t just so I could take the linear path the game had laid out for me. The mode is very repetitive, with you basically repeating the same steps to advance through the tournament each time. For lack of a better word, this mode feels rushed and has a number of problems with it. The aim of this mode is to make your way to the final battle of the tournament where you will then be crowned the greatest ninja ever. The games main story mode is called The Ninja World Tournament and involves you picking from any of the unlocked ninja to enter this tournament with. Not being a numbered entry in the series, Storm Revolution opts to tell four unique stories rather than continue the games telling of the original story from the anime.
