The most recent story is a Gamefound campaign for Naruto Shippuden Battle that passed its 35,000 euro goal, reaching 146,287 euros.
Naruto Shippuden merchandise is the main throughline of the recent stories. MegaHouse alone accounts for several lines: the NARUTO Gals Tenten figure reprint, with reservations opening August 7, 2026 and shipping in January 2027, and a September 10, 2026 preorder slate covering the Chibi Mega mascot collection, Luckap figures of Rock Lee and Neji Hyuga, a MEGA CAT PROJECT Akatsuki set, and a Nyarto name badge reprint. Bandai Spirits is adding a Minato Namikaze Kurama Link Mode S.H.Figuarts figure, and G.E.M. Series is re-releasing an Uzumaki Naruto Shinobi World War figure. A separate Itachi Uchiha palm-size release and a Nyarto re-release are set for November 2026.
The franchise is also moving into games and streaming. KRAFTON added a Naruto Shippuden collaboration to PUBG MOBILE Version 4.5 on July 9, 2026, recreating Hidden Leaf Village, Hokage Rock, and the Valley of the End across the Erangel, Livik, and Sanhok maps, with ninjutsu, a Kurama boss battle, costumes, a giveaway of over USD 600 in items, and an animated short by Studio Pierrot. Crunchyroll began streaming Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu dubs in India starting July 6, 2026, rolling out the first 220 episodes in batches through September, and later confirmed audio in all four languages. The Naruto Shippuden Battle board game from This is a GAME and Don't Panic Games passed its 35,000 euro Gamefound goal, reaching 146,287 euros, with the campaign running until October 9.
