Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 hits store shelves early next month, so it's perhaps no surprise that fans have been incredibly eager to sample the highly anticipated sequel. Publisher Bandai Namco has announced that the title's demo, which released late last year, has been downloaded 1.5 million times. In other words, it's proven to be pretty darn popular.

The demo itself is still available on the PlayStation Store if you want to see what all the fuss is about. It includes an impressive boss battle from the title's story mode, which is honestly worth a look purely for the spectacle of it.

Have you tried the demo? What did you think of it? Will you be buying the finished product next month? Hone your skills in the comments section below.

Robert (or Rob if you're lazy) has been a fan of PlayStation since the 90s, when Tekken 2 introduced him to the incredible world of video games. He still takes his fighting games seriously, but RPGs are his true passion. The Witcher, Dragon Quest, Mass Effect, Final Fantasy, he's played 'em all — a little too much, some might say.

i liked it, played it on both the PS4 and XB1 and there was hardly any difference in terms of graphics and sound BUT...

the XB1 version had slowdown and a slight input delay and in a quick response fighter that is a bad thing

and this WASN'T in the PS4 Demo

but after all it was a demo so the actual release may not have these problems

@Illusionistt because slowdown and input delays in a fighter are bad and i thought people would want to know if they were still trying to decide what system to get the game on

I have never played an Ultimate Ninja Storm game and could not get a handle of the controls before being pummeled countlessly. -_-

@iSillyBoiJudas It's not that hard, honestly. Just do some training with the CPUs and you'll get it in no time.

I'm ready for this game! Storm 3 and Revolution were awesome. With this and Street Fighter V, this year is starting off great for fighters.
