In a way, it feels like the limiters have been removed this time around, as character modes have been stripped away. The only negative that story mode has to contend with is that newcomers will no doubt be lost, but we suppose that there's no real way around this since it depicts the conclusion of Masashi Kishimoto's work.īut first, let's talk about the title's actual combat system, which has had a bit of an overhaul since the last entry in the series, Naruto Shippuiden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Revolution.
Brawls shift seamlessly between the title's main combat system, cutscenes, and QTEs, resulting in a blitz of brilliance that you can't help but become engaged with. Indeed, if there's ever been a studio that's figured out how to utilise QTEs correctly, it's this one. Parts of the plot are told through the use of still images taken from the animation, and although it can look a tiny bit cheap at times, it's an efficient way to dish out context before you go diving into the next fight.Īlongside pre-rendered cutscenes that generally look great, story mode's defining feature is what has become a trademark of not just the series, but of CyberConnect2 itself: cinematic, epic battles that combine superbly animated scenes with quick time events. Split into five chapters, some of which are relatively small, story mode retells the events of the manga and anime especially well without getting bogged down in minute detail. The story takes around 10 to 15 hours to complete, but you'll be spending longer here if you attempt to attain an S rank on each scenario.
