Naruto Storm 3: Namco Confirms Costume-Only DLC, No Edo Kage

Namco Bandai Games Europe has posted a FAQ on their website officially confirmed the Edo Kage, Kinkaku, Ginkaku, and the six missing Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist will not be playable in the game. They’ve stated it isn’t possible to include them through downloadable content (DLC).

Whaaaa? That's kind of crappy... :\

Granted, it's a great game, but they really should have given us more characters than what we got. With it being the 3rd "main" entry into the series.
Not to mention that the trailers were quite misleading. They certainly led me to believe all the Kage were playable. I mean shoot, they had movesets and everything.

Ugh, what lame roster overall. Adding PTS character added more salt to the injury. I like the characters they added, but they should've actually put more war characters into the game - Edo Kage's, Kin/Gin, Kurosutchi, Kitsuchi, Choujuro, etc.

they should have at least left all the pts characters. they removed half :/

it's a sad day in Naruto land!!!!

I'm pretty pissed by this because I can already see what they're going to do:

Generations 2: Edo Kages
Storm 4: Tobi unmasked and Dragon Kabuto

I was hoping that these characters would be added and maybe a story dlc to advance plot somehow even though it ended with a non-cannon ending, but of course that was a fools dream.
