This year's Japan Expo showed off a new trailer for Storm 4:

 

 

The trailer showed off many new things, including new gameplay of Six Paths Madara and the final villain of the series Kaguya. The trailer also included some excerpts of gameplay featuring Might Gai using the Gate of Death, Rin with Young Kakashi and Obito in what appears to a segment of their Team Ultimate Jutsu, and Hanabi using a Team Ultimate Jutsu with Hinata, Neji, and Hiashi.

 

There is also an official announcement at the end spotlighting pre-order content and collector's edition details. For those who pre-order the game, they will receive early access to "The Last" versions of Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, and Hinata (meaning they will be unlocked from the start of the game instead of having to be unlocked by whatever means possible in-game). The other pre-order bonuses are Boruto, Sarada, and the 6th Hokage skin for Kakashi, which will only be available for those who pre-order the game.

Well, I was excited... until Boruto and Sarada were confirmed to be pre-order exclusives. -_- Guess I'll have to pre-order a game for a system I might not even own until a year after the game's released if I want to play as those two.

 

Also, pretty sure this is the first time we've heard Kaguya's voice. It sounds fitting, I guess.

Yeah, I'm not too happy about it either. Especially after coming off the SSJ4 Vegeta/Frieza Armor stint with Xenoverse.

I didn't care much about the SSJ4 Vegeta thing since I'm not all that interested in GT stuff, although considering this makes two anime fighting games by the same company (Or at least both were published by Namco) with this type of pre-order bonus, this is definitely a really bad sign...

I don't care for GT either, but I still want all the characters available to me in the game, which is why I bought the DLC Packs, too, even though sans Towa and Mira, all the available characters are from GT. It feels out of place to have SSJ4 Goku and SSJ4 Gogeta to be playable but for some reason SSJ4 Vegeta is not selectable. Plus, even the Frieza Suits are gonna linger in the back of my head on top of all the other costumes I haven't even unlocked yet.

 

My point is that Bandy Namcoo is taking this whole "pre-order bonus" schtick in the wrong direction. For one thing, the "early access" deal is a much better deal because it's content that's already available for you when you get the game, just given to you earlier instead of later after you play the game for a certain time. Plus, I bet a lot more consumers would be willing to go the early access route instead of standard pre-orders, so it just mean more money and units sold, but oh well. :/

From a business standpoint, they'd probably get more sales with a pre-order exclusive character. Everyone who wants to play as Boruto, Sarada, and... get the costume for 6th Hokage Kakashi will be rushing to pre-order the game. Heck, even people who don't own a system it can be played on (Like me, probably...) will probably end up pre-ordering the game to ensure they can play as these characters. I'll likely pre-order just to get those characters, but I can't say it's an idea I necessarily like. As much as I'd prefer to not pre-order to avoid giving them more incentive to keep doing this, I really want the full roster... Ugh.

My point isn't that it's not good business, my point is that it sucks from a general consumer standpoint i.e. somebody who doesn't even have a PS4 and can't even play the game even if I did pre-order it.

That's something I can definitely agree on...
