The cross-over collaboration fighting game JUMP FORCE, which has been designed to celebrate SHONEN JUMP’s fiftieth anniversary, continues to expand with new characters as publisher Bandai Namco Entertainment have this week confirmed that Asta (from Black Clover), Boa Hancock (from One Piece), Renji Abarai (from Bleach) and Trunks (from Dragon Ball Z) will join the fight in order to save the multiple worlds from destruction.
Details for each of these characters can be found below:
- Asta, from Black Clover. A brave but stubborn child wielding an unique anti-magic sword, who dreams of becoming the Wizard King.
- Trunks, from Dragon Ball. The son of Vegeta and Bulma, he possesses the incredible strength of his father, with the intelligence of his mother.
- Boa Hancock, from One Piece. The captain of the Kuja Pirates and the only female member of the Shichibukai.
- Renji Abarai, from Bleach. A highly talented swordsman.
That’s not all as the publisher have also released a brand new story trailer which not only highlights these characters in action but also demonstrates what can one expect from the story as well as the in-depth character creation which sees a customized character become savior of the worlds.
The sudden merger between the Real World and the Jump World, has resulted in chaos enveloping the Earth, with the invading villains leaving a trail of death, destruction and panic in their wake.
To tackle this new threat, a new team of heroes, the Jump Force, is formed by Director Glover featuring the strongest fighters from across the manga universe. Players will be able to create their own hero, customising their look and fighting moves with elements from across all your favourite franchises, before joining up with the Jump Force to stop the villains in their tracks.
The trailer also provides a first glimpse at the Onyx Book, a powerful device suspected to be responsible for the mysterious merging of the two worlds.
JUMP FORCE is in development for the Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Windows PC (via Steam) and is planned for release on the 15th February 2019 within Europe.
