Skills
| Skill | What it does |
|---|---|
| Sage Mode (passive) | Up to 4 charges of natural energy, full every stage. Standing still meditates them back; hidden clones bring more. Every Frog Kumite blow that lands also gives a point of natural energy, with no limit: your next Sage Art spends them all. |
| Frog Kumite (primary) | A four-blow combo, a shadow clone joining in, and a finisher that knocks back. In the air, blows that keep you up; looking down, a diving Rasengan Barrage. |
| Sage Art: Big Ball Rasengan (secondary) | Charge at the crosshair with a giant Rasengan that bursts and stuns. Tap it, or hold it to pour charges in: bigger and stronger. |
| Clone Catapult (utility) | Two clones throw you toward the crosshair; invulnerable for a moment, stunning nearby enemies. |
| Sage Art: Rasen-Shuriken (special) | A sphere of wind blades that pulls enemies in and bursts. Pour charges in to make it bigger. |
Six-Tails (X)
Fighting fills your fury. From a quarter of the gauge, press X to become the Six-Tails: more armor and speed, no stuns.
| Skill | What it does |
|---|---|
| Chakra Claws | Spring at the enemy and tear into it, ending in a slam. |
| Chakra Cannon | Three homing chakra blasts. |
| Rampage | Run with rage, trampling and stunning everything; press again to crash down. |
| Tailed Beast Ball | A huge explosion; hold to pour fury into it. |
Turn back with X and the fury left over becomes natural energy. Let it run out and you lose Sage Mode.
Exact numbers are in the game, in the character select's Skills tab.
Tips
- Clone Catapult, then Big Ball Rasengan aimed down: a meteor onto the crowd.
- Kumite builds the points, a Sage Art cashes them: alternate the two.
- Chakra control: hold Jump against a wall to run on it.
Kizuna (co-op)
Play with a friend who picks one of the other characters: your pair gets a shared passive, and once per stage you can both press C together for a combined technique (a short cinematic finisher). The KIZUNA button in the character select shows every bond. Needs KizunaMod (installed automatically).
Controls and config
- X (gamepad: D-pad left): transformation · C (gamepad: D-pad down): Kizuna combined technique
- Keys, Storm voice lines, voice volume and Storm sound effects can be changed in
BepInEx/config/com.Zerneas.NarutoSageMod.cfg, or in game with Risk Of Options.
