Namco Bandai Games America today announced that Naruto: Narutimate Ninja is now Gold and will be released across Europe in November. Incorporating a new cell-shading technique, NARUTO: Ultimate Ninja places players in the vivid and vibrant world of Naruto Uzumaki, a student of Ninja Academy. Players can choose from more than 12 characters including Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura and master their chakra to perform deadly ninjutsu in the heat of battle. With 12 dynamic stages taken from the manga and anime series, gamers can switch stages mid-combat to outmaneuver the opposing ninja. When danger is near, gamers can unleash combos, projectiles and super attacks to ascend the ranks and become Hokage - the greatest ninja of all.
