Naruto - Ninja Council is one of the earliest games to bring the vibrant world of the Naruto anime and manga to life. As a side-scrolling platformer, it combines accessible gameplay with iconic characters, giving fans the chance to experience ninja battles on the go.


Story

Set during the Sasuke Retrieval Arc from the Naruto series, Naruto - Ninja Council focuses on the journey of Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha as they undergo rigorous training missions and take on challenges that test their skills as ninjas. Players will relive some of the show's key moments, facing familiar enemies such as the Sound Four and Ino. Although certain iconic battles (like Naruto vs. Sasuke) are missing, the game stays true to the spirit of Naruto, emphasizing teamwork, determination, and perseverance.
