''Naruto: Uzumaki Chronicles 2'' (''Naruto: Konoha Spirits'' in Japan) is a UsefulNotes/PlayStation2 ActionAdventure game developed by Cavia and [[Creator/BandaiNamcoEntertainment Namco Bandai]], based on the ''{{Franchise/Naruto}}'' franchise and serves as a sequel to ''VideoGame/NarutoUzumakiChronicles''. The game is set after the events of the ''Sasuke Retrieval Arc'' and sees Naruto chancing upon Kankuro as he flees to the Hidden Leaf Village. He's being followed by a mysterious gang of sentient puppets, and he asks for Naruto's aid and shelter. These "Puppet Walkers" are in fact puppets created by the Shirogane clan, a clan specializing in puppetry that can animate puppets to act like soldiers. They were seemingly eradicated, however a small group of remnants survived, and they now seek revenge against the Five Great Nations by stealing their Spirit Orbs, orbs which contain immense powers in order to unleash their ultimate weapon: The Master Puppet. All of the five Hidden Villages have had their orbs ransacked except for one... The Hidden Leaf Village. It's up to Naruto and co. to protect the final orb and defeat the Shirogane Clan once and for all.

Much of the game's structure has changed somewhat. The mission structure of last game is now an individual mode separate from the story mode that acts as a source of experience and rewards, and new modes such as a versus and survival mode have been added. Additionally there's been various updates to the game's systems: Allies are no longer chakra dependent [[AssistCharacter assists]], they are instead full characters no different from Naruto and can be customized and level up alongside him. The cast has been expanded, including characters who were only {{NPC}}s in the last game. Dungeons are more frequent, and can be even longer than those from the last game.

* NonLinearSequel: The Japanese release is named ''Konoha Spirits'' after the Spirit Orbs that the Shirogane clan are after. This was likely an attempt to distance itself from the first game since the plot is much more self-contained. This didn’t stop the English release from averting this and naming it after the first game.



* TimedMission: Meno of the Shirogane clan specializes in subjecting you to this. She rigs the Bandit Hideout to cave in when the party first meets her, and she attampts an explosive TakingYouWithMe after her final defeat in Sand Citadel.
