Ninjastorm 4 Road to Boruto - Local Multiplayer - Kankuro vs Kakuzu (Team Battle)

• Here's some quick info on this game, Naruto Ninjastorm 4:

[Story]
The narrative follows the young ninjas Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha as they participate in a world war between shinobi – the Fourth Shinobi World War – against the terrorist organization Akatsuki and unite to defeat it. Similar to Storm 3, the game uses regular fighting systems; however, players can switch among a team of three fighters who can assist each other. Other returning elements involve boss fights, where quick time events are required to reach hidden scenes and hack and slash areas. The expansion version is entitled Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 - Road to Boruto; this version, under development, was compiled with three other series titles as Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Legacy and released on in August 2017. It adds new characters from the 2015 film, Boruto: Naruto the Movie, and adult versions of the younger fighters.

[Gameplay]
Ultimate Ninja Storm 4's gameplay is similar to that of previous games in the series, in which players battle each other in 3D arenas. A returning feature, omitted since the original Ultimate Ninja Storm, is the ability to wall-run; players can battle on the sides (walls) of each arena. A major change to the feature is the ability to have one character on the wall and the other on the field; the second player was originally also moved to the wall to keep the battle flowing and the system in check.[3] The game has the largest number of fighters in series history. Its roster includes 106 fighters from the Naruto universe, including duplicates of the same characters, such as Naruto (Part 1) and Naruto (Six Paths Sage Mode).[4] The game also includes characters from the films The Last: Naruto the Movie (2014) and Boruto: Naruto the Movie (2015).[5] There is total of over a hundred characters in the game.[6]

The option to select one of three fighting types was removed; it was introduced in Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Revolution, restoring the rest of the series' strongest attacks, Ultimate Jutsu and Awakenings system which enhances the fighting capabilities of fighter for a limited time. Another new feature is the ability to swap characters during battle, similar to games such as Marvel vs. Capcom 3. Awakenings and ultimate jutsus can be shared by switchable characters; players can build their meter with one character and switch to the other, using the same abilities with the other character (which shares the life bar). Also new to the series is the ability to break weapons and armor in free and boss battles with the ability to inflict elemental damage; fire can burn away clothing, but players can get rid of fire by moving quickly across the area or being attacked with water.[7]

A player can initially play the main story mode about the Fourth Shinobi World War set after the events of Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 3 Full Burst.[8] which it is divided into lineal chapters involving the parallel encounters Naruto and Sasuke have until reuniting. Optional chapters focused on the supporting cast's past are also available to play. Similar to previous Storm games, the history mode has boss fights with quick time events and hack and slash elements.[9] When they complete the mode, the player can travel across an open world to recreate fights from previous series installments.[10] The DLC Road to Boruto also focuses on the same open world but restricted to Hidden Leaf Village with sidequests being available besides completing its main narrative.[11]

• My friend was visiting so, like the good old days, we played some Naruto Ninjastorm until our hands were sore from mashing so many buttons so quickly haha

• At first we chose some crazy teams but eventually settled on selecting teams at random to make things more interesting.

• Funnily enough I got one of the types I hate the most -- puppet characters. I ended up with Kankuro but luckily my allies were Madara and Guy so eventually I switched out to them.

• My friend got Kakuzu, Momoshiki, and Guy as well.

• Here's a link to some info on my main character and on my friend's main character in this fight.

• It was a fun battle where I had a bit of a tough time at first and kept getting caught in Kakuzu's grab move but eventually I left everything in the very capable hands of Guy Sensei who's an absolutely beast.

• Hope y'all enjoy!
