In an interview with GameSpot, GungHo Online CEO and president Kazuki Morishita discussed plans to expand the game's story as the months roll on.

"We will gradually release a cartoon-style web anime that will shed light on the background stories of characters that did not appear in the 3D anime. Additionally, the single-player mode [which is additional paid DLC] is in the game that you can play offline called Story Mode. In this mode, the story is presented in a comic book style, and you can experience a playstyle that is completely different from the normal multiplayer battles. Depending on how well you play, you can receive Ninja Medals, which are used to grow Shinobi Cards as rewards. In the future, we plan to develop several cross-media promotions using various approaches such as 3D animation, cartoon animation, comics, and story mode updates."
