The camera angle is still placed squarely behind the player, though it is pulled back so you can see more of your surroundings. Despite the happy reunion, Naruto finds himself in the thick of things once again as the story goes from the Gaara rescue arc all the way to the Five Kage Summit arc.Īt its core, Ultimate Ninja Impact is an adventure game similar in scope to Akatsuki Rising, where most levels are self-contained rooms blocked off by requirements, such as killing all of the enemies in the room before being allowed to progress. Like two of the other three Naruto Shippuden games on the PSP already, this one starts off with the beginning of the series as Naruto returns to the Hidden Leaf Village after a three-year training session. While it still doesn't reach the heights of the console games, it is one of the better Naruto games on the PSP. In what could be the last game in the series for the PSP, Namco Bandai Games decided to give the series one more go as an adventure game with Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Impact. PSP-owning Naruto fans have played or seen it all, including fighting games, adventure games and even a multiplayer RPG-like game.
The continuation of the original Naruto stories, the game series has used the portable system as a breeding ground for different ways to tell essentially the same story. PSP players should be familiar with the Naruto Shippuden franchise.
