Jump Force is really close to release, and it now has a new gameplay trailer meant to celebrate the release of the fighting game. The newest trailer, the launch trailer for the game, features a rapid roster rundown and plenty of action via some great fight scenes. From Dragon Ball, to One Piece, Naruto, JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, and even Yu-Gi-Oh!, Jump Force boasts a roster that is likely every anime fans dream.
And since we’re so close to release, those of us who missed out on playing the game during its recent beta periods will finally get to get hands on with this majesty in the next few days.
In case you somehow don’t know about this game, here’s a quick rundown. A weird warp in time and space has resulted in many different anime and manga universe crashing together. Two factions quickly form out of the iconic characters from these properties, and the two factions vie for dominance. One side fights to restore balance and return the fictitious world to what is once was, the other fights control this new reality. Jump Force’s roster is made of characters from Shonen Jump Magazine, the most famous manga pre-publication magazine in the world. Here’s the list in alphabetical order of all manga and characters in Jump Force:
- Black Clover: Asta

Yugi Moto from Yu-Gi-Oh! was another addition to be unveiled after that. Another recent character source was the Rurouni Kenshin property. And that’s just the beginning.
