With over 120 characters (admittedly, there are quite a few variants of the more important characters ala Dragon Ball FighterZ), there’s bound to be a favorite team you’ll choose if you don’t want to spend time unlocking characters again, there’s a DLC early unlock pack that will unlock most content instantly, though keep in mind it’s a $2.99 price tag. All in all, it’s a meaty package that will last you dozens of hours. The Switch version of Ultimate Ninja 4 includes all previous DLC, which means you’ll get story modes focusing on Naruto, Shikamaru, and Gaara. If you miss the days of breaking boxes for items and accepting random requests, there’s an Adventure mode you can head into that takes place after the events of the main story (which act as an epilogue for the original series as a whole).

I do enjoy the streamlined approach of the main story’s execution, as you can play through battles and cutscenes in order rather than taking breaking up the action to navigate an overworld.

Look, if you came into this review not knowing Tobi was Obito, I don’t know what to tell you.
