It looks like the popular anime game development team CyberConnect2 has done it once again. Teaming up with publisher Bandai Namco, they have announced their next fighting game during today’s State of Play event. This stylistic anime fighter title will be JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle R, which is set to release sometime in the Fall of 2022!
If you haven’t seen the JoJo anime series yet, it is best known for its charismatic heroes who drop unforgettable catchphrases and perform over-the-top moves as they pummel each other using martial arts and supernatural skills. This will be the biggest game ever in the franchise, bringing together 50 characters from every story arc. Players can experience popular battles from each story and see heroes from different universes interact for the first time, playing as Jonathan Joestar, DIO, Jotaro Kujo, Jolyne Cujoh, daughter of Jotaro and the first-ever female JoJo in the series, and many more.
On top of that, this game will be an authentic video game adaptation that stays true to creator Hirohiko Araki’s captivating art style and stars the anime series’ original Japanese VO actors. JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle R will release on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC. Are you excited to see a new JoJo coming later this year?
