Worth buying? What 300 Steam reviews say.Worth buying? Here’s what 300 Steam reviews actually say.
A flashy, cinematic Naruto arena fighter with a huge roster and a story mode that recreates the anime's finale. Skip it if you want deep competitive play, online matches, or have no controller.
Great for
Naruto fans who want a cinematic story mode and casual couch versus with friends, using a controller
Main risk
Online is dead, laggy and sweaty, and the combat is shallow button-mashing without a controller
