Most Worthwhile Naruto Games

The Naruto series has been delighting ninja fans around the world since its inception with the manga in 1999 and anime in 2002. Though both are mostly done at this point, with Boruto carrying the torch, there are plenty of video game adaptations to play. Fans who want to play as Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, and the like should check out the most worthwhile Naruto games below.

Best Naruto Game for Fighting Fans: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4

It’s no surprise the bulk of the most worthwhile Naruto games are fighting titles, but it can be a bit overwhelming with how many there are. If you are looking for the best of the bunch, try out Ultimate Ninja Storm 4. This has gorgeous graphics similar to the anime, but in 3D with excellent effects, great fighting mechanics, and a solid cast.

Best Naruto Game in Terms of Story: Path of the Ninja

If you want something a bit different than a fighting game and something more story-driven, this is the game for you. This Nintendo DS game offers a turn-based RPG formula with cutesy pixel graphics. It feels like an immersive and slower-paced way to experience the anime’s story.

Best Naruto Mobile Game: Naruto x Boruto Ninja Voltage

There are plenty of Naruto mobile games, but the best of the bunch is this one. It is a free-to-play fortress defense game. Players upgrade and fortify their base for attacks from other players or go on the offensive and attack others themselves. The intense multiplayer action provides plenty of hours of fun.

Best Naruto Game for Boruto Fans: Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker

Boruto fans don’t need to feel left out, as there are games for this sequel series as well. This particular 3D arena fighting game is pretty excellent. It has lots of characters from both series and it features a unique twist where players compile teams of four, much like the original anime, to battle against others.
