Bandai Namco has just released DLC Pack 5 for NARUTO X BORUTO Ultimate Ninja STORM CONNECTIONS on Steam, and it brings some exciting additions to the game.

Fans of Boruto: Naruto Next Generations will recognize Boruto Uzumaki in his Karma Progression form, which is the highlight of this pack. Because of his ties to the Otsutsuki clan, Karma bestows immense power upon Boruto, turning him into an unstoppable opponent.

Like the other downloadable characters from the anime, Boruto's Karma form has special abilities that are visually impressive. I think Boruto's Karma progression truly embodies the spirit of the Ultimate Ninja STORM series, which has a history of masterfully transforming the show's exaggerated combat into enjoyable and thrilling gameplay.

One cool thing in this DLC is the Combination Secret Technique called Apocalypse, but it’s only accessible when you put together the team of Sasuke Uchiha, Madara Uchiha, and Indra Otsutsuki. Including team-specific moves in games is awesome because it gives the die-hard fans something more to root for. Reminds me of getting Rikishi to dance with Scotty 2 Hotty in WWF No Mercy on the N64. I am indeed that old!

For those who like customization, there are also twelve new voice lines, a new costume for Boruto, and some exclusive Ninja Info Card images, which are nice touches if you're into adding a bit more flair to your game. If you’ve got the season pass, you’ll automatically receive this content, but if not, visit their Steam Page for more info.

Overall, it’s a solid addition to the game, especially for fans who enjoy playing as characters from both the Naruto and Boruto series. If you've been away from the world of ninjas for a while, this is a great opportunity for Steam players to jump back in!
