Naruto: Uzumaki Chronicles

Naruto: Uzumaki Chronicles, known as  in Japan, is a video game by Bandai Namco and is 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 early for 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 the Sasuke Recovery Mission. Naruto's Rasengan was also present in the game, but was renamed Power Strike.

Plot
The game's plot is heavily altered, set in between the Search for Tsunade Arc and the Sasuke Recovery Mission. Having a different plotline for the story before Part I's conclusion.
