Fans who have been following the fighting game for a while might already know that Mecha-Naruto, a robotic version of the series' titular ninja, will be part of the game. The developer has also previously announced the Ninja World Tournament, a 3-on-1 battle mode where a single player takes on the computer in a test of endurance, strategy and skill.
Now, Bandia Namco released a statement saying that Mecha-Naruto will "bring mayhem" to the arena of the Ninja World Tournament. What this could mean is that Mecha-Naruto forms the computer side of the lopsided battle mode, which would fit in with the theme of taking down three strong, automated opponents with the skill that can only come from an old fashioned human ninja. Mecha-Naruto might look like Naruto, but chances are the real Naruto will be able to take down the three imposters on Ninja World Tournament Island.

Also announced today was the existence of a new Ultimate Combination Jutsu, the special moves that can only be pulled off by specific teams. Of course, the protagonist team of Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura have already been confirmed as an Ultimate Combination team, as well as a number of duos like Sasuke and his brother Itachi. Now, Naruto has been confirmed to share an Ultimate Combination Jutsu with Hinata, the shy but effective fighter.
Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm Revolution is set to hit North American consoles and Steam on September 16.
