Last week (15th November), Bandai Namco released Naruto x Boruto: Voltage in Japan. The game features characters from Boruto: Naruto Next Generations and Naruto will be playable. The gameplay involves actions and strategies. Players have to build their own forts and attack any rival forts with splendid moves shown in the anime. Online co-op is also available.
Gameplay Summary
Ninja Voltage’s gameplay is separated into two main categories.PvP and PvE.
▍Recollect Iconic Moments
PvE is your typical mobile action game, where players can use iconic characters from the series and relive key moments in the story.
▍Attack Missions
PvP combines the action element with a strategic twist. Players build and customize their own forts to defend against other player’s invasion. Players can also invade other player’s fort for resources. PvP will reward players with PvP currency that can be used to buy shards
▍Resource Management
Asides from fortifying forts, players will also have to manage their resources. Chakra and Gold are the main resources that are generated over time in the village. Gold is needed to upgrade the the Base and also required for certain character upgrades. Gold is also required to purchase upgrades for the player fort.
Chakra, on the other hand, is used to upgrade money generators and used to upgrade skills.
▍Shard-based Character System
Unlike most games, characters aren’t separated into rarity. All characters are obtained at 1★ and all characters can be upgraded to 6★. Some of the characters can be obtained from the main story chapters. However, some of the characters have to be farmed from special missions.
Upgrading characters will also require the specific hero’s shards which can also be acquired in the special missions.
▍Gacha
The Gacha in Ninja Voltage drops character skills. These skill cards increase character’s stats, and unlock different skills depending on the card. The top tier cards are Ougi cards which unlocks devastating skills for specific characters for example, Naruto’s Ougi is the iconic Rasengan and Sasuke’s is Chidori.
