Back in April, some dataminers had managed to reveal the remaining characters that would be released by Bandai Namco in Spike Chunsoft's
Jump Force; a list of characters that included heavy hitters from series like Naruto and One Piece — to name but a few.
Eventually, Bandai Namco confirmed that all of the leaked characters were, indeed, going to be joining the game's ambitious roster — although it was only confirmation, as the developer didn't release trailers or screenshots of said characters.
The characters in question were Hitsugaya Toshiro and Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez from
Bleach, Katsuki Bakugo from
My Hero Academia, Biscuit Krueger from
Hunter X Hunter, Majin Buu from
Dragon Ball Z, Uchiha Madara from
Naruto, and Trafalgar Law from
One Piece.
Today Bandai Namco has finally given us our first look at the terrifying Madara Uchiha, and has even revealed that the powerful antagonist from the
Naruto series will be joining the roster, as part of the game's Character Pass, at some point this Winter.
Take a look:
