The story in Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Trilogy is praised for its solid performance and engaging modes, making it enjoyable for fans, especially on the Switch. However, it is noted that the trilogy offers only three-quarters of the complete narrative, and players with access to PS4 or Xbox One are encouraged to opt for the legacy edition for a more comprehensive experience.
“Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Trilogy is a mixed bag; on the one hand, it is ideal for Naruto fans on the move who want to reconnect with three-quarters of the story on offer.”
“If a PS4 or Xbox One is available, then it is strongly recommended to purchase the Legacy Edition instead, which features better presentation and the complete experience of the Naruto story.”

Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Trilogy is a mixed bag; on the one hand, it is ideal for Naruto fans on the move who want to reconnect with three-quarters of the story on offer. However, on ther other, time has indeed taken its toll on the original two games so much so that it is hard to recommend them, especially as Storm 3 can be picked up individually for £16.99. If a PS4 or Xbox One is available, then it is strongly recommended to purchase the Legacy edition instead, which features better presentation and the complete experience of the Naruto story.
