A new "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4" gameplay video was released online, running for about two hours and leaving fans begging for more.

The first scene was dominated by the battle between Naruto and Sakura, followed by a tag team appearance of Hinata and Kakashi, Yibada writes. A fight between Sakura and Neji and Sasuke and Hanabi is also featured in the latest trailer.

The video, which was reported by Twifinite, may have come from fans who have previously sampled the game in Tokyo Game Show this year. Since there are no official details yet as to when a demo will be released, fans may have the opportunity to sample the game in gaming events.

IGN adds that besides what is seen in the video, Hiroshi Matsuyama of CyberConnect2 shares there will be more polished scenes and modes in the upcoming "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4". As this will be the initial game from the Ninja Storm series, Matsuyama wants it to be powerful that is why improvements were done on the different damage animations when characters are attacked. Furthermore, boss fights will be something to look forward to.

The Ninja Storm game was slated for release this fall but due to the additional tweaks done by Matsuyama and his team, the release date has been pushed back to earlier in February next year. Fans are excited as to what other treats they will be given once the game is officially unveiled.

One is the addition of Naruto and Sasuke from the "Naruto the Baruto" movie, which came as a great surprise for fans because according to rumors, they have not been confirmed to appear yet. But, representatives from Cyber Connect 2 and Bandai state that even if they are not yet confirmed, it does not necessarily mean they will not be included in the game, Geek Snack reports.

The lack of details about the highly-anticipated "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4" game will not dampen the excitement of fans. As a matter of fact, fans may find it interesting that the creator of the manga, Masashi Kishimoto, will grace the New York Comic Con. Although not entirely connected to the game, manga and other anime-related news will be discussed during the event. 

Currently, the latest "Ninja Storm" is in development in order for fans and gamers to play it on their PlayStation 4, PC or Xbox One. More information will be divulged about the game in the coming weeks so be sure to stay tuned.
