Now, here's the latest roundup update about Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 DLC 3 release date, feature and rumors on the web.

The Sound Four DLC is available for digital download starting May 10 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Steam for $6.99. Season Pass owners can get the third DLC pack of Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 a week earlier, on May 3.

Gematsu reported The Sound Four DLC brings four new characters. Players can now use the elite bodyguards of Konohagakure's legendary Sannin Orochimaru called The Sound Four. The members of the group are Kidomaru, Jirobo, Sakon/Ukon, and Tayuya. Aside from their normal forms, the upcoming DLC will also introduce their Cursed Seal Level 2 forms.

According to a fan-based website, the strongest member of the group is Jirobo, while the fastest is Sakon, who has a twin named Ukon. Tayuya is the only female member and the second strongest among them. Kidomaru is the most intellectual in the group. The four are considered as Orochimaru's strongest underlings.

Aside from new playable characters, Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 DLC 3 brings new Combination Secret Techniques. Players can use the Sound Four's Ninja Art: Underworld Formation. In addition, there are two extra Combination Secret Techniques for Zabuza. By using Zabuza and Kisame, they can cast the Seven Blades of the Blood Mist. Also, when Zabuza teams up with Haku, they can perform Cold Assault of the Demon Blade technique.

Based on the DLC's preview, new Combination Secret Techniques will surely bring huge damage to enemies. In addition, the techniques have an impressive animation that will definitely excite gamers.

Furthermore, Ultimate Ninja Storm 4's latest DLC introduces Ninja Treasures, 10 Ninja Info cards, 10 Matching Voices and 10 costumes from previous Naruto games. Players can use swimsuits for Temari, Tsunade, Sakura, Hinata and Ino. Not only that, there's new costumes for Zabuza, Pre-Akatsuki Konan, Nagato and Yahiko.

A review from IGN says Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 has refined gameplay and offers a large roster of playable characters. However, the game is plagued with poor AI and connection problems. The Naruto game got 5.5/10 score from the website.
