Bandai Namco Entertainment has joined forces again with game developer CyberConnect 2 to help create its upcoming game, "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Blazing." The partnership includes Internet media company GREE.

"Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Blazing" will be a turn-based mobile game that will be released for the Android and iOS operating systems. The partnership is estimating to release the game within the latter part of the year in Japan. However, there is very limited information available about the soon-to-be-released game, Saiyan Island reported.

There are no immediate details available if the game will be available in other parts of the globe, but according to a previous report from Saiyan Island, Bandai Namco Europe applied for a trademark of the "Ultimate Ninja Blazing" title last September. There are also other titles filed for trademarking, namely "Narutimate Wars," "Narutimate Braves," and "Narutimate Blazing."

Many fans around the globe are still having a blast with the third and last DLC for "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4." It was released during the early days of February, thus fans were surprised when the company announced the upcoming game.
