"Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Blazing" will be released this summer, according to a press release regarding the launch of the mobile game in Japan.

The title was released to its homefort last July 14, but the worldwide release has always been teased to happen this year, with no specifics on when it will really take place.

However, the press release revealed that "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Blazing" will be released in the rest of the world this summer.

This implies that the game should be released anytime now, with August being the latest. That being said, the wait won't be that long for the arrival of "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Blazing."

This upcoming game, however, marks the jump to mobile gaming of the mega popular "Ultimate Ninja" gaming series in the console, which was wrapped up with "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4."

"Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Blazing" happens to be the first smartphone game based on "Ultimate Ninja." The game allows players to experience the "Shinobi formation battle."

This simply means that it caters to strategic multiplayer battles, which can be participated in by three people. In "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Blazing," players can connect to the internet and take part in cooperative battles.

While it is a mobile game, "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Blazing" also features a slice of the "familiar cut-ins" from the console video game series.

The free-to-play fighting game is now available to download on Android or iOS devices in Japan while players in the United States and other regions can expect an announcement about its overseas release sooner than later.

In the press release, it was stated that Bandai Namco Entertainment hopes that releasing "Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Blazing" worldwide will "spread the fun of playing 'Naruto Shippuden' all over the world."

Of course, it is not the first game to make it out of Japan as "Naruto" games are almost always released in North America and Europe.
