The greatest heroes and villains from the 50-year history of Shueisha’s influential Japanese Weekly Shonen Jump manga will battle against each other across iconic locations on Earth in this anime fighting game fan’s dream come true!

Featuring the world’s most popular and classic manga/anime franchises including Dragon Ball Z, One Piece,Naruto, and many others, players will be able to create their three-character manga/anime dream tag team and take them into battle in hyper-stylish arena brawls set against backdrops of famous landmarks around the world including New York City’s Times Square and the Matterhorn in the Alps. Utilizing Unreal Engine 4, Jump Force brings these titans of Japanese pop culture to life for the first time ever in stunning realistic detail.

The lines that separate our world from the Jump world have been blurred, with evil forces spilling into the real world to rule over humanity. The greatest heroes known to manga/anime including Goku, Luffy, Naruto, as well as many others to be announced, must join together to triumph over the forces of evil seeping in from the Jump world.

The characters hail from a number of popular manga series including NARUTO, Dragon Ball Z, ONE PIECE, BLEACH, HUNTER X HUNTER, and MY HERO ACADEMIA. More information regarding the release date of these characters will be coming at a later date.

Also released today is a trailer for upcoming DLC character All Might from My Hero Academia. The trailer for the true “Symbol of Peace” shows off the hero’s impressive range of hard-hitting and quick skills including his ultimate attack, the United States of Smash!

In addition to All Might and the previously announced Seto Kaiba, JUMP FORCE will receive the following DLC characters:

  1. Biscuit Krueger (HUNTER X HUNTER) – A treasure hunter who hides her true age behind a young appearance. While her original form is that of a muscular adult woman, she prefers to stay in her child form to her advantage in gathering intel and deceiving opponents while in combat.
  2. Majin Buu (Dragon Ball Z) – A fearsome enemy of Goku and the Z Fighters. Majin Buu’s endless appetite and lust for destruction make him a terrible threat.
  3. Madara Uchiha (NARUTO) – A legendary leader of the Uchiha clan and founder of Hidden Leaf Village. He plans to rule the Ninja World as a god and is resurrected as an unstoppable ninja during the Forth Great Ninja War.
  4. Trafalgar D. Water Law (ONE PIECE) –A friendly rival to Luffy of the Straw Hat Pirates. Law is part of a group known as the Worst Generation as well as being the captain and doctor of the Heart Pirates.
