In
Naruto Shippuden: Clash of Ninja III Revolution, more than 35 playable characters from the
Naruto: Shippunden manga and anime face off in martial arts battles, using hand-to-hand combat and jutsu special powers. In addition to one-off battles for quick, pick-up-and-play action, the game offers a single-player storyline mode that follows the plots of the comics and television series. Building on the mechanics of earlier games in the series,
Clash of Ninja Revolution III allows players to control their characters with the motion-sensitive
Wii Remote and
Nunchuk, or by using the more traditional
Wii Classic controller or
GameCube controller. The game refines the fan-familiar control scheme and adds new and more powerful attacks and defensive maneuvers, as featured in the animated series Shippuden sequel. In addition to same-screen battles on a single console, the game supports multiplayer combat over the Internet, for Wi-fi connected players across North America. Exclusive to
Nintendo consoles, the
Naruto: Clash of Ninja 3D fighting games began with two releases for
GameCube in 2006, coming to
Wii in 2007's
Clash of Ninja Revolution, and then
Clash of Ninja Revolution 2 in 2008.
Clash of Ninja Revolution III is the first of the fighting game series set during the Shippuden "Hurricane Chronicles"
Naruto sequel stories, which take place at a later time and feature complex plotlines and older, more mature characters.
