    Ultimately, Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker is an entertaining, competitive, and addicting game that truly captures the visual style and overall feel of the source material. Its thorough character customization allows you to create your ideal ninja, both in looks and fighting style, and its competent multiplayer action lets you unleash your powers in flashy elegance. I’m still perplexed at the choice to restrict the already minimal content, but the fundamentals of the game are solid through and through. With some additional modes and quality of life changes, Shinobi Striker has the potential to assert itself as one of the strongest, and most unique Naruto games to date.
  2. Aside from older Naruto games, Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker offers a better fighting system. However, in online matches it is relatively difficult to get used to it.

    Bandai Namco’s newest fighting title, developed by Soleil Ltd., is quite a bit different from previous Naruto titles—the Ultimate Ninja Storm series is, of course, beloved by many fans of both the game genre and the Naruto franchise. With Shinobi Striker, Bandai Namco has stepped away from the tried and true recipe, with (relatively) great success.

    Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker is a mediocre fan-base fighting game which actually won't please any original comic book fans.

    If you like MOBAs, anime, cel shading, fighting games, and things like that, you will probably get something out of the game. I, personally, enjoy almost anything with a competitive element to it. Add character creation and a beautiful presentation into the mix, and that was enough to make me feel like this is a worthwhile game.

    There is fun to be had and there are much worse anime titles out there, but there are also much better ones. Dedicated Naruto fans looking for fast-paced, gravity defying multiplayer beat ’em up action need look no further, but for those looking for a worthwhile single player experience or multiplayer with voice chat can skip this one.
  7. 60
    For those who are on the fence, Naruto to Boruto Shinobi Striker isn’t as convincing as it thinks it might be.

The character rosters are pretty good with tons of recognizable characters from throughout the Naruto franchise, and the abilities/character customization is also pretty vast. The DLC is rather balanced too since each DLC character comes with a unique move-set and fun customization items, but you don't actually have to purchase the DLC to play as the character. You only need to buy the DLC if you want to use it in your own custom character, rather than just play as the DLC character. So even people that don't want to spend extra money on DLC can still enjoy some of the aspects of the DLC, and I really haven't seen a game use this model before, and I honestly really like this system. There are also moonlight scrolls which are purchasable "high tier" loot boxes, but the rewards you can get from those boxes can still be earned by just playing the game normally. My only complaints with this game is that the hub is very small, and once you get used to the controls it begins to set in that this game should have been open world. The movement mechanics and the maps you fight on are incredibly well made and feel fairly fluid with their "easy to handle, tough to master" mechanics. So having the same system Shinobi Strikers already has, but in an open world setting, would genuinely make for one of the greatest Naruto games of all time. I would argue that future Naruto games should use this game as a model, especially if a Naruto MMO ever gets developed. Many will complain about the lack of a story mode, but personally I didn't miss that. The solo/co-op PVE missions are all fairly enjoyable and the PVP is good too. I rate it 9/10 simply for how easy and fun it is to pick up, play a few fun games, customize your ninja a bit, and call it a night. Expand

Keep in mind that it just came out and is going to have more things added to the game. The clothing and character customization is easy to use and cool looking. The game play it self has some weird buttons but you can change that easily by going into the settings, but that was just a personal preference. Overall I rate this game 8 of 10. Expand

    Unfinished, buggy, unplayable. The game had modders day one that interfered with other users greatly. The game is in extreme lack of contentUnfinished, buggy, unplayable. The game had modders day one that interfered with other users greatly. The game is in extreme lack of content and the story mode is just a recycled mob masher with a small handful of game modes, only varying in characters. There is no balance in PvP and the rank ladder system extremely flawed. This accompanying game breaking crash bugs and terrible camera and jutsu mechanics wraps this game up as something you do not want to buy. Users in this site and on the reddit all said that the game "just came out" and that more things would be "added over time" but it is six, nearing seven months after release, and it's only gotten worse.
