Board game studio This is a GAME and publisher Don't Panic Games launched a Gamefound campaign on Wednesday for Naruto Shippuden Battle, an officially licensed game for 2 to 4 players who assemble teams of three characters to claim objectives and victory points. The campaign runs until October 9 with a 35,000 euro goal and has passed it, reaching 146,287 euros as of press time.
Pledges start with the Naruto Sage Mode miniature, and higher tiers add extra battlefields, miniatures, and acrylic tokens.
