There’s no easy way to say this: the Akatsuki are back and Bermuda’s not okay.
Garena Free Fire isn’t slowing down when it comes to crossover events, and its latest collaboration with Naruto Shippuden is dialed in for fans of both mobile shooters and classic anime. If you missed the first collab earlier this year, don’t worry because Chapter 2: Ninja War pushes the crossover even further, expanding on last year’s partnership and introducing new in-game content themed around the Fourth Great Ninja War.
From Jul 30 to Aug 31, the Hidden Leaf Village and Akatsuki are going head-to-head across modes, maps, and mechanics, and somehow it feels like Free Fire just became a Naruto RPG. It’s loud, it’s fast, and it’s probably the most fun you’ll have in Free Fire in a minute.
Gameplay meets the Great Ninja War
This chapter brings a sharper focus on combat-themed gameplay features, syncing with the all-out warfare arc from Naruto Shippuden. Unlike the first crossover, which leaned more into cosmetic flair, this chapter folds deeper into gameplay, with event modes and reward mechanics that actually impact matches.
Free Fire’s event mode; Ninja Strike: Shadow Assault, drops players into a limited-time game type built around stealth, speed, and close-quarter clashes. The map is smaller, the action is quicker, and character movement feels tighter.
Whether you’re maining Chrono or experimenting with Naruto-themed skins, the layout encourages fast rotates and decisive fights. This mode favors aggressive flanking, which means movement prediction becomes crucial; an area where high-sensitivity players have an edge.
Skins, Bundles, and Character designs
The main draw for many players will be the new cosmetics, and this time, the devs didn’t just paste anime faces onto default models. Each outfit, from Sasuke’s Akatsuki gear to Naruto in his Sage of Six Paths cloak, or Sakura’s Fourth War fit, comes with matching emotes, lobby animations, and custom backpack designs.
There’s also a push toward collectibility. Instead of rotating bundles randomly, Free Fire is using a scroll-based unlocking system this time. By completing daily missions and time-limited challenges, players earn Ninja Seals, which can be exchanged for themed rewards. This system favors consistent players over one-time logins, making it easier for regulars to complete the full set without spending diamonds.
Real Ninja Moves. Real Game Changers.
Every week of this grand collab brings new content, but here’s what will most likely catch your eye:
- Battle Royale Mode: It’s not just visuals. They’ve baked actual ninjutsu into gameplay. You get six Akatsuki Keepsakes scattered around Tsukuyomi zones. Grab one, and you get character-specific powers such as:
- Itachi’s Amaterasu: black flames, brutal range
- Deidara’s clay bird: remote detonation in mid-air
- Konan’s paper bombs: sneaky, explosive
- And then there’s the eight new jutsu skills to look out for. Things like Flying Raijin Jutsu (diehard fans will know this as Minato’s teleport skill) and the famed Uchiha clan Sharingan, which lets you copy the skill of the nearest enemy (which comes in very handy in ranked duels).
You can even revive your character with Izanagi!
- Clash squad gets even better: With this collab, Clash Squad Mode has a twist too! Now the airdrops are called Divine Tree Airdrops and include Red Moon Points. If you get three of these, then the battlefield shifts. The scene goes red, buffs drop, and an exclusive shop opens.
- If you're into 1v1s, check out Ninjutsu Lone Wolf Mode. This mode boasts ranked ninja duels, and that’s exactly what you get; no nonsense at all. You pick a jutsu, you fight. And the best part? Not only are the duels skill-based, they’re also style-based, promising you an experience like never before.
And then there are the Collectibles…
This is where the collab event really goes all in. The Epic Ninja Trials tab is where you’ll find the heavy stuff. Complete all five legendary trials and you unlock the Orochimaru Bundle, full with a matching avatar. That’s not all; Madara, Obito, Pain Tendo, Itachi — they’re all here. Outfits aren’t the only thing you have to look forward to, however.
- The MP40 - Uchiha’s Legacy skin with Tsukuyomi FX
- Gloo Wall: The Final Valley
- Madara’s Fan Backpack
- Emotes like Susano’o summon, Reanimation Jutsu, and Forehead Poke (yes, that one)
- Minato’s Kunai dagger
- Reverse-color outfit transformations (Itachi’s bundle changes mid-match, it’s insane)
- And a personal favorite: the Shadow Clone Jutsu emote. It’s already shaping up to be the most-wanted cosmetic of the drop. Only obtainable through event loot crates, it’s become a chase item for collectors and content creators alike. Players can reduce RNG pain by completing milestone missions tied to daily logins, but the real grinders are stacking event currency through ranked plays.
