  • Naruto Shippuden: Legends Akatsuki Rising Goes Gold For PSP

    Sep 15, 2009

    NAMCO Bandai Games just announced that Akatsuki Rising for the PSP has gone gold. As you get to play as one of the four ninja from the Akatsuki clan, you'll be able to view the game from an all new nefarious angle!

    The Akatsuki organization's mission is to extract Shukaku, a powerful beast that has been sealed within Gaara since his birth. Gaara knows how to control it sometimes but most of the time, the beast simply forces its way out. Do you have a beast within you? If you did have a powerful beast in you, what would it be like and what would it look like? Share the beast within you in our newest Shippuden Mission and earn 5,000 ryo! Make sure to stop by the forums to discuss your beasts!

    The countdown begins - we are just 3 weeks away from the Akatsuki Rising release!
