Konami has announced the start of a collaboration between the football simulator eFootball and the anime Naruto: Shippuden. The news was shared via the game’s social media channels.
As part of the collaboration, unique player cards, special goal celebrations, and themed packs will be added to the game. The content was showcased in a trailer where football stars are blended with the style and characters of the anime. The collaboration will run until May 14.
The collaboration also features AC Milan players such as Rafael Leão, Luka Modrić, Christian Pulisic, and Alexis Saelemaekers. These cards are available through challenge events, where completing objectives unlocks rewards including player cards, tokens, and themed items.

Alongside the themed content, a new Epic: Worldwide Clubs pack featuring Naruto has been released. It includes Gareth Bale, Marcelo, and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, with the latter two making their debut in eFootball as new Epic cards.

As a reminder, Natus Vincere have lost their chances of reaching the VCT 2026: EMEA Stage 1 playoffs.
