Unlike the Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm series which is more and more a mess of technical, balance and gameplay issues these days, Brave Soldiers delivers what is a nice, franchise - based
fighting game,
at first, i was expecting a simple
fighting game with some button mashing, however, the
game proved me wrong and i fell in love, the combo system, while easy, is a lot more deep than the one in the Naruto
games, with all of the characters having two special attacks, two «burst attacks», a knock - away and a launcher respectively, a throw and an ultimate attack (called a «Big Bang Attack»), every character also has an universal dodge - action that sends them behind their enemies while spending one cosmo bar, making bar management that much precious and shielding you from a half - a-hour combo, unlike in the NUNS series, the
fighting and the characters are nicely balanced, with every character being fun to play and viable
at the same time, the
game runs smoothly without frame - rate issues and the cell - shaded graphics, character models, arenas and effects alike are nice to the eye, battles are divided into rounds, with all the tiny nice stuff like character introductions and outros being intact (fun fact: the characters will even comment on their score after the battle), the
game also features an awakening system, called the «Seventh Sense» awakening, unlike the NUNS awakening system which became severely unbalanced in the later
game, every character simply gains a damage / defense boost, with the conditions being the same for all characters, eliminating situations when one character can use awakening
at almost any point in the battle, or one awakening being drastically stronger than the other, the
game has a story mode with three story arcs used to unlock characters, a collection mode,
tournament modes, a survival mode, a series of special versus modes and online battle modes.
