Naruto returns in style with new manga, anime, card game and more

Naruto and Bandai Namco revealed 4 new Naruto projects during New York Comic Con, which is taking place this weekend.

The official Project Rasengan website launched today, and with it came the first announced projects, part of a 3-year roadmap of new products for the Naruto franchise.

Here’s the short version:

• A new anime, a crossover with Ninku, a ninja manga/anime that Kishimoto has said many times was the inspiration for creating the Naruto manga.

• A new card game in June 2027.

• The Naruto mobile game will launch worldwide and will no longer be limited to Asia.

• And the cherry on top: a new Naruto manga called Shadow Rising, written and illustrated by creator Masashi Kishimoto himself.

More details on the projects will be announced at Jump Festa 2027, which takes place in mid-December 2026.

In my opinion, I’d like a new action or fighting game.

Or both, why not?

A new Storm with that arena gameplay, and a more traditional fighting game, ideally made by Arc System Works with that fantastic cel-shading they pull off.

I was feeling lazy, but it passed. So I decided to leave the teaser trailers for each of the projects announced today right here.
