Solving a mystery

Through some detective work and translating, we were able to uncover a recent blog on the Namco Bandai Games official website that detailed the upcoming release of Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 3. The announcement was made at this year's 30th issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine. Namco Bandai Producer Yusuke Sasaki, detailed that fans of the series can expect a more solid story regarding the new installment.

There are not a lot of details regarding the upcoming release of Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 3, aside from that it will be released in Japan sometime in 2013. The announcement did not state whether fans of the series can expect it in North America or Europe, however we will be sure to keep you updated to any and all news as soon as it becomes available.

You could always get the party started early by checking out the previous titles in the series, Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations, and Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2

They need to stop chucking these games out so often. Its basically the equivalent to how they always give us the same dragon ball z games every year..

It's most likely going to be late 2013 so they can finish this arc which hopefully is the end of the magna just for a closing standpoint. Please don't pull a Bleach Naruto

Personally I'v avoided these games as I follow the english dub, and Generations goes just beyond the story of where I am up too.

However I love Naruto, and will get this, if only to show that anime games can have strong sales on 360.

Does anyone know roughly where Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 goes up, what episode number?

If I am remembering correctly, I think it goes to somewhere between 200 and 225. I'm not sure though. I know what event is at the end, so if you want to know that PM me, but I don't want to give spoilers.

I still need to get the achievements for 2 (haven't got Generations since it seems to be the same gameplay down to a tee). I hate the 'play as [character] 30 times' titles.

The biggest problem I had with Generations was that the single player story was terrible compared to NS2, hopefully NS3 won't follow that path.

Last game honestly did not impress basically a rehash of Ultimate Ninja Storm 2. A few new characters and a story mode told through pictures and a few cut scenes.

I think Generations was just a filler game. Thus why it didnt have a number in the title; I'm hoping this will go back to the formula of 2. Because I loved the hell out of that game.

It ends at the end of the Pain arc. Ends somewhere between 220~230 for the Japanese version if I remember well..

For the dubbed (which you are watching) version is episode 175 the final part of the game. Which is the part of the:
"The *********** Invasion" arc (******* is for spoilers)

For more info you can read it here:
http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Naruto_Shipp%C5%ABden:_Ultimate...

It contains spoilers though so read on your own risk.

I really disliked the approach to the campaign in UNSG. 2's story mode was great, I loved the cutscenes and the occasional QTEs. Loved it. Hoping for more like that in the new installment

It pretty much jammed the series into one game and progressed the story a bit. But seeing the gap in between Storm 1 and 2 that just shows that Storm 3 has been in development for some time. Generations, in my opinion, was just something to hold Naruto fans down until the next installment is being finished up. But I CAN NOT wait for this neXt game to release. I completed Storm 2 and Generations and am a HUGE fan of the series.
DO NOT critique me! What I do DOES NOT reflect you!

generations was a filler, the show has them so y not the games. i found generations to be an epic game cause a t every party we have we set that up at some point and have a massive tournament. 3 will most likely be like number 2, but as long as it keeps EVERY character from G and keeps tournament mode ill buy it day 1. (... i mean every character...)
