Since its release in 2019, Bandai Namco Entertainment's Jump Force game has become the premiere title for everyone's favorite Shonen Jump characters to band together for 3v3 arena battles. Shows like Bleach and Hunter x Hunter have already begun to introduce some brand new DLC characters, but that is far from the conclusion for the extra characters that will be coming to the game.
With very detailed graphics and a roster that spans as far back as shonen series like City Hunter, Jump Force is more than just a game; its a celebration of all things Shonen Jump. Using similar gameplay to Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm, each character in the game feels unique to each other, with their own powers and abilities.
One of the newest DLC characters that will be coming to the game this fall is Hiei of Yoshihiro Togashi's Yu Yu Hakusho. Bringing his impressive powers and incredibly sharp sword, Hiei is ready to hack and slash his way into the Jump Force arena.
As of now, only a few stills have been released, but a trailer should be expected closer to his release. Make sure to check them out below, and don't forget to share your thoughts in the comments!
When the real world collides with many of the Shōnen Jump universes, humanity is invaded by the "Venoms", an army of mind-controlled villains led by Kane and Galena. In order to fight back, many heroes are recruited to join the "Jump Force" under the leadership of Director Glover and his A.I. partner Navigator. But a suspicious figure is using both the Jump Force and the Venoms as an attempt to gain a mysterious artifact and merge all worlds into one.
Jump Force is available now on PS4, Xbox One, and PC!
