Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Heroes 3 PSP

Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Heroes 3 for PSP is a fighting game (similar to previous installments of the series) requiring the player to apply different ninja techniques depending on the chosen character. Apart from that, the players are able to use items, such as enlarged shurikens or poisonous bombs. Each duel takes place in two planes - the foreground and the background. The player can switch between these by pressing a simple combination of buttons.

Plot & Mechanics

The story mode, called the Master Mode, gives an opportunity to take part in events depicted in the second season of the Naruto anime series. This time, the story stretches until the encounter with two members of the Akatsuki organization – Hidan and Kakazu to be precise, which happens around episode 88. The game features two kinds of levels. "Battle" refers to duels, but "action" levels require the player to run away from different threats for instance.

The player can observe the events from Sasuke's perspective, as well as try the story created specifically for this game by the cyberconnect2 company.

Game modes

Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Heroes 3 for PSP introduces duels for up to 4 players on split-screen. In the Master Road mode, the player can invite two friends in order to complete the story campaign with them as a team.
