This is exciting news for fans of JoJo’s Bizzare Adventure that the series finally has some representation in Jump Force. So with these two characters officially confirmed for the game that brings our total roster to 40 including Kane and Galena. Unfortunately, there are still some series that fans feel should make it into the game. Like Tsuna from Hitman Reborn, Bandai Namco has stated that there were still plenty of characters to announce. However, with the game’s launch on the horizon, we may have to accept that the base roster won’t make it to 45 as most expected.
Jump Force will release February 15 for the Xbox One, PS4, and PC. Let us know in the comment section below if you are excited for Jotaro and Dio to be included in the roster.
