Naruto x Boruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm Connections

But Why ThoKate Sánchez

65/10

As an anime fan who hasn’t watched Naruto in almost a decade and has never seen beyond one arc of Boruto, this game made me excited for the franchise in a way I honestly hadn’t felt in a long time. But my view of Naruto x Boruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Connections as my own reentry is a subjective point that the game’s mechanics don’t necessarily do enough to overtake the nostalgia and stand on its own.

The Naruto franchise has changed a lot since the previous entry in the Ultimate Ninja Storm series, as Boruto is fast approaching its 300-episode mark. Even so, CyberConnect2 still decided to put a lot of the focus here on the original two Naruto series in what felt like a speed run of the prior Ultimate Ninja Storm series, with the new Boruto Special Story just tacked on to give players something new. While the gameplay hasn’t changed much, it still feels very Naruto-like and works well for what the game is trying to do. Hopefully, this was created to serve as the last hoorah for the classic ...

A nice tip of the hat to the Naruto series after more than twenty years, Naruto x Boruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Connections is an accomplished celebratory package, albeit one that's unfortunately deficient in a few key areas.

Naruto X Boruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Connections continues the celebrated series but falls short in innovation.

6.5/10

When based on combat alone, Naruto X Boruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Connections maintains the success maintained throughout the series. Unfortunately, very little accompanies it in this package, with the only worthy exception being a short but sweet Special Story exclusive to this game. A solid discount would make buying this game worthwhile.

Legendary ninjas reunite in the next exciting entry of the STORM series! NARUTO X BORUTO Ultimate Ninja STORM CONNECTIONS is an action/fighting game with fast-paced ninja battles and two different story modes.

This is a fun yet bare boned tribute to Naruto’s long history and adventures. Almost all the features are mostly carried over from previous games.

Naruto X Boruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm Connections is a disappointingly dull entry in the series. You have to wonder where CyberConnect2 will go from here.

The anime franchise Naruto has graced our lives for 21 years. This is even longer when you consider the original manga. With that, NARUTO X BORUTO Ultimate Ninja STORM CONNECTIONS is a new 3D fighter title for the franchise all focused on celebrating the classic Shonen Jump series. For such a momentous milestone anniversary, this is an adaptation that well and truly should be better. Connections isn’t even the best Ultimate Ninja Storm game we’ve had. In short, they made a bad one.

Naruto X Boruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Connections doesn’t set itself apart from its predecessor and ends up feeling like an overpriced DLC.

5/10

For a game designed to show off the best of Naruto and Boruto, but fans are left with a speedrun through Naruto's highlights and a Boruto story that feels like he's his own side character. Combat is still fun and flashy, if a bit simple.
