The DLC packs load of goodies for players but it centers on the titular ninja's three-hour scenario called "The Fresh Green of the Hidden Leaf." As Shikamaru, players will talk to folks, battle and explore the world set two years after the Fourth Shinobi War.

The "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4" DLC also comes with Naruto's Seventh Hokage costume, as seen in the "Boruto: Naruto the Movie." It is shown in action in the "Shikamaru's Tale" trailer and needless to say, Naruto looked extra good beating up enemies with the garb.

Another exciting bit about the "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4" DLC comes in the form of combination techniques. With this expansion pack, players can perform four combinations. The first one is the Standard Leaf Formation with Shikamaru and Asuma.

The second one is called the Great Insect Fang: 64 Palms featuring Hinata, Kiba and Shino. The third one is the Hidden Leaf: Veritable 1000-Armed Hokage Kan'on, which features successive Hokage.

Those who pre-ordered "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4" can also perform the Super Uzumaki Rasengan combo including father and son Naruto (in his Seventh Hokage costume) and Boruto.

The "Shikamaru's Tale" DLC also includes loads of in-game items including a new item set, 10 new ninja info cards, 10 new matching voices and 10 costumes from previous "Naruto" installments.

The "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4" DLC is priced at $9.99. Those with the season pass will get to access it on March 8 while everyone else can download it starting March 15.
