It’s been a while since we’ve gotten a Naruto game that wasn’t part of the Ultimate Ninja series. Maybe Bandai Namco has been listening to fans in certain corners of the internet, as the company is preparing to launch Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker, a game described as an “acrobatic ninja battle game” that supports four-player battles with up to eight players online. Though it’s had a couple of betas, the game will finally see its second open beta this week. According to a press release Bandai Namco sent out, the “open beta will be available for both the PlayStation 4 and XBOX ONE between July 20-22, 2018 and July 27-29, 2018″ and will include “four maps, 25 kinds of [ninjutsu], new customization options for characters, and a new playable character, Yamato.” In addition to this, the open beta will feature “both single-player and 8v8 PVP modes [with] two new PVP battle modes: ‘Destruction Battle’ and ‘Base Battle,’ which will be available during specific sessions.” The Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker open beta will be split into different sessions.
