Just like its predecessors, the narrative includes omissions and additions. During this adventure, Naruto will discover the remaining mysteries of his birth while the whole ninja world is immersed in the biggest War ever known.
Meanwhile, Naruto learns about Sasuke's dark deeds, and he must decide whether he insists in his goal of rescuing his rogue old friend, or try to take him down to stop his madness.
After the battle against Pain, the Five Kages decide to meet in a summit to decide how to deal with the threat of Akatsuki. The storyline begins where Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 left off, right after the Invasion of Pain arc and the destruction (and reconstruction) of the Hidden Leaf Village. The game was released for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in the United States on March 5, 2013, in Europe on March 8, 2013. Naruto Shippūden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 3 is the sequel to Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations and is part of the Naruto franchise's Naruto: Ultimate Ninja: Storm subseries developed by CyberConnect2.
