Finally the Sound Four [as playable characters]!!! [It's been long overdue!]

Speaking of DLC characters, does anyone else think we'll get any more playable characters after DLC pack 3? I say that because I have been watching videos that show the character roster and saw that there was a fifth page of characters that have The Last Naruto and Sasuke, Hanabi, Boruto, and Sarada followed by 22 empty slots.

If they're really just empty slots it seems kinda pointless in my opinion to put them on there, expecting to have more characters.

If those empty slots do end up being playable characters in the future (which again is extremely doubtful), I'd love to see Anko, Kurenai, Shizune, and the non-playable support-only characters from previous storm games be playable, as well as lars alexandersson.

EDIT: Made the mistake of assuming that the Sound 4 were playable in Storm 1, and fixed my post accordingly. Thank you, Double Mangekyo, for clarifying.

If this is CyberConnect2's last Naruto game(They said the end of Storm, but really I can't see where they'd go from here. Might as well move on, make a new Dot Hack, and make something else entirely.) they really should go out with a bang and include every single character from Naruto. So long as they could come up with unique move sets of course.

Well, in the Storm series:
- This is the first time the sound 4 have been fully playable in a Storm game. They were supports in Storm 1 and Storm Generations but that was it.
- Shizune has only ever been a support character in Storm. I'm still hoping that she, along with Anko and Kurenai, will be playable in this one...
- The Senju brothers were supports in Storm 1 and became playable from Generations onward.

Thank you for clarifying my mistake regarding the sound 4. I thought they were playable in Storm 1.[/quote]

So even Bandai jumping on the season pass train, huh? Most (if not all) disc-locked content, i'm sure. Will be curious to see how much this is going to cost.

I pointed that out because I wasn't sure if he was aware that none of the mentioned characters were playable from the outset in the Storm games despite having been previously playable in the original narultimate hero games.

How is that an asspull?........to say nothing of the fact that Toneri isn't actually the final villain.

They can make one game that covers the full story with all boss battles. Filling in the spots they skipped over the years.

they could even reuse assets from previous storm games if they wanted, i'd just like to be able to play storm1\storm 2 boss fights on my pc like everything else.

there are still tons of characters that could be made.
