The combat system was very bad in the fighting mod. Also, world travel and open-world feeling were terrible. It's a regression compared to the first one. But, on the other hand, It has the best single-player campaign among all. Cuz It contains the best arcs of Naruto (except Chunnin Exams) in it and game developers bring it their A-Game in creativity. Great Boss fights and very nice additions to the original source without hurting the original story too much.

It's amazing that the production values in this game are better than the show it's based on. The spectacle almost makes this game worth playing. However, the game is as shallow as a puddle. The combo system is virtually non-existent, and most offense revolves around mashing and abusing broken assists. The defensive system is also dumb, as it often makes the pressure game feel non-existant and becomes a clusterfuck of dodging. You're better off watching clips from Youtube than playing this game.
