The North American and European versions have different a story. The original story from the Japanese version (with a new storyline added) was published in Europe as its own version of Ninja Destiny 2. The game features 16 playable characters (including 3 extra characters for North American and European versions).

Reception

The game received "mixed" reviews according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[3] In Japan, Famitsu gave it a score of one seven and three sixes for a total of 25 out of 40.[5] GamePro said, "Hardcore Naruto fans who are subject to long road trips will manage to squeeze a few hours of fun out of Ninja Destiny. All others should apply their stealthy skills elsewhere in gaming's vast stable of ninja titles."[15][a]
