Kabuto joins the roster as a Heal Type character, bringing a set of techniques based on his perfected Sage abilities. His moves include Sage Art: White Extreme Attack and Strange Transmission Distant Shadow, while his ultimate technique is Sage Art: Inorganic Animation.

The update also introduces several customization items inspired by Kabuto, including his Sage Mode and younger outfits for male and female avatars, two hairstyles, Kabuto’s Serpent weapon, and the honorary title The Way of the Sage.

Players interested in unlocking Kabuto’s techniques and items for their own avatars can access the separate Master Character Training Pack. Season Pass 10 also includes the Majestic Attire: Susano’o secret technique as a bonus, usable by Attack and Defense Types.

The Scroll Lineup is also getting new additions. The SS+ Divine Blade “Ame-no-Minaka” is available now, while Karasu-dachi “Usumidori” and Passion Gear “Power of Youth” are planned for this winter.

Bandai Namco also offered a first look at the next master character: Obito Uchiha (Rampaging), who will arrive as Special Master-Ninjutsu Training Vol. 51 later this winter.
