Naruto Arena

Hello everyone! Another week has gone by, which means it's time for a new update!

First of all, the three special characters, Mecha Naruto, Rock Lee (2014), and Uchiha Sasuke (Alternative), have been permanently disabled.

Note: If you completed the missions for any of these three characters, they will still appear in your character catalog, but you will only be able to use them in Private Games.

Additionally, we will be extending the duration of temporary missions to two weeks instead of just one, giving players who haven't completed them yet some extra time. We will follow this same format for future special characters.

And speaking of special characters, today we're bringing 3 more characters:

This is 2006-2008 version of Tenten, with improvements for her first skill.

This is 2007 version of Shikamaru.

This is 2006-2008 version of Haku.

This is a experimental version of Senju Hashirama.

Global Chat Updates

We've also brought some updates to the Global Chat:

• The General Chat has been split into two separate channels: EN and PTBR.

• System notifications have been added to the chat. You can now see messages where you've been mentioned.

• Embedded links are now recognized by the interface.

• Imgur URLs will now automatically be displayed as images attached to your message, with a limit of one image per message.

• Attached images can now be expanded, with zoom-in and zoom-out functionality.

See you soon!

Balances:

• Nerfs: ET Susanoo Itachi (S), Akimichi Chouza (S), Edo Tensei Kimimaro (S), Gekko Hayate.
• Boosts: Tenten, Demon Brothers, Yamato (S), Chojuro (S), Samehada Fusion Kisame (S), Edo Tensei Ameyuri (S), Edo Tensei Pakura (S).
• Optimizations: Masked Man.
• Tweaks: Kitsuchi (S), Kisame Body Double (S), Nagato (S).

This update's content will be soon rewritten.

Mecha Naruto is a mechanized replica of Uzumaki Naruto; it is a mindless savage, attacking everything in its path.

The 2014 version of Rock Lee, a dedicated taijutsu specialist who pushes his body beyond its limits by opening the Eight Gates.

A Genin from Team 7, Sasuke is the lone survivor of the Uchiha clan. He fights with his Sharingan, fire style, and Chidori.

Balances:

• Nerfs: Tsunade, Edo Tensei Nagato (S), Edo Tensei Kimimaro (S), Hoshigaki Kisame (S).
• Boosts: Cursed Seal Sasuke.

Hello everyone, we had a maintenance to make a few improvements to the Ingame. Most of the changes were internal, but here are a few things that changed for you guys:

• If you refresh the page/F5, you will still have access to your in-game chat history.
  
• Due to some internal changes, your entire match history has been cleared.

We also have some news regarding the next Major Update: We’ll be bringing a new exclusive feature to the Ingame. Due to that, the update will not happen exactly on the 15th and will most likely be released 2–3 days later. If it happens earlier, everyone will be notified through our Official Discord.

I’m sure it’ll be worth the wait.

Hello everyone,

Today we're releasing Balance Update 2.0.2, bringing new character fixes and buffs, as well as nerfs to characters that have been dominating the Ladder over the past few weeks.

"As a note, so you guys understand how we operate. When it comes to changes like this (nerfs), we purposely take it slowly. We'd rather do 2 or 3 small changes than 1 giant one, because there is less chance of messing up and overnerfing a character. Despite this method taking a few days longer than otherwise, we do tend to prefer this method."

Also, for the next Major Update (August 15th), we will bring 3 new characters.

That's all, thank you all!

Hello everyone,

It's been one week, so we're back with another update, featuring a new Ladder Event, UI improvements, new features, and, of course, a Balance Update.

Ladder Event

We've added two temporary Ladder Missions, one featuring Fuuton Naruto (S) and another featuring Hebi Sasuke (S). Completing each mission will reward players with an exclusive Custom Rank designed for its featured character.

Both missions, along with the Ladder Event, will remain available until August 5, 2026. Once the temporary missions end, their Custom Rank rewards will no longer be obtainable.

Reminder: If you reset your account before completing a mission, all progress toward that mission will also be reset.

UI Improvements and New Features

The Selection screen has received a few improvements and now includes the following options:

• Profile Overview
• Change Avatar
• Reset Account

These options can be accessed by clicking the Settings button.

We've also added a Settings button to the Battle screen, along with two new features:

• Opponent Profile Overview: View your opponent's profile and match history during a battle.
• Auto-Reorder Skill Queue: Automatically reorganizes queued skills based on their priority.

Note: Auto-Reorder Skill Queue is intended to help new and casual players, and it can be disabled at any time through the Battle settings.

Balance Update

For this update, we first focused on nerfing characters that were overperforming and buffing characters that have been underperforming since the previous update. Our goal was to make each character better or more balanced where needed without forcing changes simply to shake up the Ladder.

The exceptions are Uzumaki Naruto (S) and Uchiha Sasuke (S), who received adjustments specifically for the new Ladder Event.

Additionally, now that Affliction is a main class, we'll be placing more focus on Affliction-class characters that still need balance adjustments, such as White Snake Kabuto (S) and Kankuro.

That's all for now! Another update is planned for August 5, 2026. See you then!

Balances:

• Nerfs: Hebi Sasuke (S), White Snake Kabuto (S), Shinobi Alliance Tenten (S), Fuuton Naruto (S), Kankuro.
• Boosts: Uzumaki Naruto, Aburame Shino, Hyuuga Hinata, Hyuuga Neji, Gaara of the Desert.
• Adjustments: Sai (S), Nara Shikamaru (S).
• Event Boosts: Uzumaki Naruto (S), Uchiha Sasuke (S).
