Players will be able to gain advantage in the heat of a battle by selecting two support characters to form a three-man team for each mission. Players can utilize the different skills each character brings and combine their attacks together to discover ultimate combos in defeating enemies.

Original Mode lets players experience the Gaara Retrieval Arc as they battle enemies through lush, 3D anime inspired environments.
