Pockie Ninja’s new “Shipudden” pack due to be rolled out this autumn!

Akatsuki arrives. The countdown to the new Pockie Ninja expansion pack begins now

NGames have announced “Shipudden”, a brand new expansion pack for their popular anime-inspired MMORPG, Pockie Ninja.

In the whole new chapter of Pockie Ninja, players will encounter the mysterious yet dangerous group Akatsuki, and display their skills in the newly-introduced PvP system, the Challenge Zone.

Akatsuki members will make their debut at the crack of dawn!
Though the literal meaning of Akatsuki is daybreak, it is in fact a group of people who aim to plunge the world into darkness. In their eyes, only utter destruction can bring the real beginning of dawn. And the final aim of Akatsuki is…

The new chapter of Pockie Ninja will showcase the primary members of Akatsuki: Pain, Deidara, Kisame Hoshigaki, Hidan and Konan. All S-rank ninjas who will make their debut!

Six Paths – Pain

The world will know true pain, and the fear of that pain will put an end to war… It will lead the world to stability and peace. -Pain

Leader of all Akatsuki members, and a man with incredible power. It is said that he has mastered all ninjutsu at the age of 10. Now he possesses the legendary Rinnegan, which enables him to master all six nature transformations. Pain killed his former mentor Jiraiya, who’s one of the Legendary Three Ninja; and destroyed Konoha with Almighty Push. The real strength of Pain is anyone’s guess.

Art is an Explosion-Deidara

Fine art is the beauty of that single fleeting moment of explosion. And true art is an EXPLOSION! -Deidara

Deidara is a talented shinobi in Iwagakure and later joined Akatsuki. Deidara possessed special mouths in the palm of each hand. With these hands he could create explosive ninja tools with clay. Deidara is also a perfectionist; he sees exploration as art and pursues the illusionary beauty of a single moment.

Monster of the Hidden Mist – Kisame Hoshigaki

Kisame Hoshigaki! I’ll remember that name for the rest of my life! -Blue Beast Guy

Former member of Kirigakure’s Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist. He had a shark-like appearance, pale blue skin and sharp teeth. He joined Akatsuki after betraying his own village and was partnered with Itachi Uchiha. He’s an expert of various water release jutsu and can attack with his weapon Samehada. The chakra hidden inside of his body is exceptional strong.

Dance of Paper Flower – God’s Angel Konan

This time I hope for you these will be flowers of hope that never die -Konan

The only female ninja in Akatsuki and the partner of Pain. People give her the title of Angel out of respect. Konan has an impressive skill which can turn her entire body into thousands of sheets of paper. With both intelligence and a kind heart, why she joins a criminal like Akatsuki?

Triple-Blade Scythe – Hidan

You’re cursed. Now! Let’s savor the utmost of suffering together! -Hidan

Hidan uses a triple-blade scythe and owns an immortal body. He usually speaks in a form of sarcasm and lacks tactical genius. He can acquire people’s blood and curse the opponent till death through the special symbol drawn with his own blood, where upon consuming it he draws the symbol on the ground.

Money Talks – Kakazu

Money is the only dependable thing in the world. -Kakazu

Kakazu and Hidan are jokingly referred to as the “Zombie Combo” by other Akatsuki members because of their inability to die. Kakazu is a very powerful ninja, his body is full of mysterious dark threads which allow him to bind the opponent, seize their organs and integrate them into his own body. Kakazu has five hearts altogether so that he can easily use lightning ,wind, fire, earth and water release skills. As the Treasurer of Akatsuki, he is totally obsessed with money.

The storm of Shippuden is taking shape and will soon reach its climax. Stay tuned for upcoming updates of Pockie Ninja’s new chapter, Shippuden.

Who’ll be the ruler of Challenge Zone? A whole new PvP feature comes!

After arena challenge, national cup and world cup, Pockie Ninja has introduced another PvP play mode, Challenge Zone. More fun, more excitement, only the strongest can enter the area of Challenge Zone.

Remember, Naruto said that “My dream is to be the greatest Hokage”? If you’re a veteran player of Pockie Ninja and expecting some thrilling challenges, the Challenge Zone would be your best choice!
Challenge Zone

Anxious to give the new pack a shot? The countdown for the release of Pockie Ninja’s new chapter starts today.
