Naruto: Rise of a Ninja is a video game for the Xbox 360 that is currently under development by Ubisoft Montreal. The game will be specifically based off the English dubbed version of the anime Naruto, and is set to be released in North America in October 2007. Though Ubisoft is looking into the option of putting the original Japanese voices into the game, no specific details according to that have been given. So far, no plans for a Japanese release have been announced. According the June 2007 edition of Monthly Shonen Jump, this game will include both an action-adventure single-player mode and versus multiplayer. The newly released trailer also hints toward online play with Xbox Live.[2]
So far, it is the only Naruto game to be developed and published by a non-Japanese company.
Gameplay
The game itself is a RPG, where Konoha will serve as a main hub to access various missions players can go on. The main storyline will take place from the beginning of the series to the end of the Invasion of Konoha arc, with included sidequests. It will feature elements from the Prince of Persia series, like jumping acrobatically from rooftop to rooftop, as well as having one-on-one brawls much like the Naruto: Clash of Ninja series. Like with most Naruto games, it will feature cel-shaded graphics.
