Naruto The Broken Bond | Full Game Walkthrough | No Commentary
168We already archived Naruto Rise of the Ninja which is a beloved Naruto game that only released on Xbox 360. But what many might not realise is that Rise of the Ninja actually had a sequel as well. It was once again created by Ubisoft and continued the story right where the first title left off. We play yet again as Naruto and friends as the Hidden Leaf Village is being rebuilt after the invasion of Orochimaru.
On our quest we will meet new fan favorites like Tsunade, Kabuto and of course Itachi. Rise of the Ninja definitely surprised me, so I was excited to see how the sequel would line up. Though it definitely still was a fun time, I do think the first game is better. There is a lot of filler in The Broken Bond which feels very repetitive and sometimes even a bit boring. The world also does not seem as interesting to explore; an aspect I loved in Rise of the Ninja. Some of the puzzles merely come down to finding the right switch or timing jumps. The platforming is unfortunately not tight enough to where this works all the time.
When the game follows the main plot of the manga and anime, its great, but there's just a lot of filler in between. I'm glad to have experienced and archived the Xbox 360 Naruto games so that these will not be lost to time itself.
