Naruto: Uzumaki Chronicles

Naruto: Uzumaki Chronicles is a video game for the Playstation 2.

Gameplay
Unlike the Naruto: Ultimate Ninja titles on the PS2, which were fighting games, Naruto: Uzumaki Chronicles is an action/adventure game. This is also the first 3-D Naruto game not to use cel-shaded graphics. A sequel titled Naruto: Uzumaki Chronicles 2 was later released. The game is entirely translated and features no Japanese voice track. It also features 7 playable characters.

Due to the game being released too early for the English audiences, content present in the game was either modified or removed. The presence of Itachi, Kisame, and Tsunade were completely wiped clean from the original in all FMV sequences and gameplay, while Gaara and Shikamaru had their costumes modified to their present dub costumes. Very strangely, Chōji's abilities to enlarge his arm were kept in the game despite being a spoiler from Sasuke Recovery Mission. Naruto's Rasengan was also present in the game, but was renamed Power Strike. There are a total of 22 missions in the games story mode. As if it is mission based game that the player has to select in the Third Hokage's Hokage Residence. (Which is called the Hokage's Room in the games main menu).
