 Bandai Namco

Naruto and his friends will return in the sixth installment of the game as "Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 4" gets released in 2016.

Fans of the game have been awaiting the release, which will be in February next year, and they are also eager to know more about the details of the game.

Luckily, it was revealed by Japanese magazine, Shonen Jump, that the upcoming game will introduce two new forms of characters Sishui and Itachi.

GeekSnack reported (via ShonenGamez) that the magazine has now been translated to English and teased about the characters' new Perfect Susanoo forms. In addition, the publication stated that the two forms were specially created just for the game.

Meanwhile, the game still has to offer more revelations as it's heading for its target release date. While there's no official news about the future lineup, Geek Snack also reported that there's a high probability that the game will feature "Boruto: Naruto the Movie's" Naruto and Sasuke.

The speculation came from a Twitter response from the game's representatives stating that the two characters' presence have not been confirmed but it also doesn't mean that they won't be in.

Fans should just watch out for the announcement from the Naruto Video Games' Twitter page.

In a report from Anime News Network, it was also stated that the upcoming game will have the most fighters in all of the history of the series, and it will include characters featured in Hashirama and Madara's Battle.

In addition, those who appeared in "The Last: Naruto the Movie" will also be featured.

"Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm 4" is scheduled to be released in Japan in various platforms — PlayStation 4, Microsoft Windows, and Xbox One — on Feb. 4, 2016.

The game will reach those in Europe by Feb. 5, while those residing in the North American territories will get the game a bit later on Feb. 9.
