All Games in the Naruto: Path of the Ninja Series

The enduring popularity of Naruto has spawned a multitude of video games for fans to enjoy. This article focuses on the Naruto: Konoha Ninpōchō series, encompassing five distinct titles.

Launching the Naruto: Path of the Ninja series is Naruto: Konoha Ninpōchō. Released in 2003, this title was exclusively available in Japan on the Bandai WonderSwan Color handheld console, a system that never saw international release. The game primarily covers the Land of Waves arc, augmented by additional missions featuring Team 7.

Another Japan-only release, Naruto: Konoha Senki, developed by Tomy for the Game Boy Advance, arrived in 2003. The game adapts the first 70 episodes of the anime, encompassing the Land of Waves and Chūnin Exams arcs. Initially, players control only Team 7 and Kakashi, with additional characters unlockable upon progression.

Despite the "RPG 2" designation, Naruto RPG 2: Chidori vs. Rasengan is the sequel to Naruto: Path of the Ninja. This Tomy-developed Nintendo DS title, released in 2005, remained exclusive to Japan. The narrative follows the Search for Tsunade arc, concluding with Sasuke's escape from Konoha.

Concluding the series is Naruto: Path of the Ninja 2, another Tomy creation for the Nintendo DS. Initially released in Japan in 2006, it saw a global launch in 2008. Unlike its predecessors which largely adhere to the canon storyline, this installment features an original, non-canon narrative centered around the Three Ryūdōin Brothers and a unique Anbu character serving as the player's ally.
