We can do our best to posit what players might see when the update hits servers everywhere. For one, it\u2019s probably safe to assume that we\u2019ll be getting Team 7 skins. Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke drive the show\u2019s central plot, and so watching the three heroes dive down from the party bus doesn\u2019t seem far-fetched in the slightest.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>In addition to these characters, we might spot other mainstays like Kakashi (Team 7\u2019s sensei), Rock Lee (a Bruce Lee-inspired martial artist), or Itachi (Sasuke\u2019s powerful older brother and resident series edge-lord). The sky\u2019s the limit when it comes to potential Naruto cosmetics, but let\u2019s hope that\u00a0at the very least\u00a0there\u2019ll be an impressive\/sizable catalog of equippable skins to choose from.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>As for emotes, the \u201cfull tilt\u201d animation already mirrors Naruto\u2019s infamous <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/2020\/10\/06\/new-apex-legends-update-includes-crossplay-beta-nerfs-wraiths-naruto-run\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ninja run<\/a>. Perhaps, in its stead, we\u2019ll see more exciting peripherals like substitution jutsus or flashy shuriken-throwing attacks. Other items that you might wear on your back could include bags or literal visualizations of mythical beasts like the nine-tailed fox or even Jiraiya\u2019s hard-boiled, gargantuan toad companion, Gamabunta. On a smaller scale, there might be other wearable items like an Ichiraku ramen bowl. We\u2019ll just have to wait and see what\u2019s in-store when <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/b\/features\/archive\/2013\/03\/20\/the-best-manga-and-anime-based-games.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Naruto Shippuden<\/a> hot drops into Fortnite next week.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>What crossover Shippuden content are you expecting to see?
