Naruto X Boruto Ultimate Ninja Storm: Connections is the sequel to the highly successful Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 4. Unlike the previous games in the Naruto Ninja Storm series, Naruto X Boruto Ultimate Ninja Storm: Connections follows Naruto Shippuden's sequel series, Boruto, and the generation that follows Naruto's group. Naruto Shippuden's characters and story, however, remain incredibly popular and a core part of the series, and so also remain in Connections.
