Atlus picks up Naruto Shippuden: Dragon Blade Chronicles and Naruto vs. Sasuke

It looks like Atlus is going to be the new go-to company for Naruto games. It has just picked up Naruto Shippuden: Dragon Blade Chronicles (Wii) and Naruto Shippuden: Naruto vs. Sasuke (DS). Both games will be rated Everyone 10+, be available on November 16, 2010 and have lots of preorder and special stuff associated with them.

Atlus hasn’t exactly confirmed the preorders and bundles, but it has shown images of some of the stuff that you can get with both games if you preorder and go for special editions. Both the DS and Wii Naruto Shippuden games are shown with Naruto figurines and photos of a rather stylish Naruto Shippuden baseball cap with the Konoha leaf symbol embroidered were released. So perhaps the baseball hats will be a preorder bonus, like the Junpei hat with Persona 3 Portable and the figurines will come with a special bundle.

Naruto Shippuden: Dragon Blade Chronicles is the localization of Naruto Shippuden: Ryujinki. It’s an action game, where players step into the shoes of both Naruto and Sasuke. For Naruto’s part, you’re trying to hunt down Genryu dragons to keep a Dragon Guardian named Kuroma from unleashing their powers. For Sasuke’s you’re trying to hunt down Itachi.

Naruto Shippuden: Naruto vs. Sasuke is the localization of Naruto Shippuden: Saikyou Ninja Daikesshu Gekitotsu! Naruto vs. Sasuke and the sixth Ninja Council game. It’s a fighting game with fairly detailed sprites of some of the series most popular characters. It will have side missions and a high score table. Unfortunately, you can’t play as villains or online with friends in this entry.
