On Friday, Bandai Namco Entertainment America began streaming a video announcing the fifth season pass for its Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker game. According to the video, the season pass will add five new characters to the game and will be available in 2022. "Legacy" is the theme of the characters in the new season pass.

 The third season pass for the game includes the following characters: Kakashi Hatake (with both eyes Sharingan), Neji Hyga, Shisui Uchiha, Naruto Uzumaki (Last Battle), and Boruto Uzumaki (Karma Form).

The fifth season pass will also include a "stage renovation" update, as well as a new atmosphere for the game's Hidden Leaf Village. The video also details the game's operational roadmap for 2022, which includes enhancements to the Ninja Tools Shop, Ninjutsu Library, and other features, as well as Ninjutsu balance adjustments and other in-game improvements.

On February 4, the character Kawaki was released as the game's 28th DLC character and the fifth and final character of the fourth season pass. The fourth season pass focuses on the theme of "regeneration," with Sakura Haruno from the Great Ninja War as the first character, Nagato (Edo Tensei form) as the second, Itachi (Edo Tensei form) as the third, and Sasuke Uchiha as the fourth (Final Battle).

Bandai Namco Entertainment America describes the game:

Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker is a high-speed four vs. four multiplayer title that encourages cooperative play through the use of character-specific roles. Characters are split up into four roles: Attack, Ranged, Defense, and Heal. Teams that utilize these four types of characters will be formidable opponents on the battlefield.
