Bandai Namco US has revealed the latest fighter joining the Jump Force roster. The Kazekage himself, Lord Gaara of the Sand, will be a playable character in the game. Bandai has shared official gameplay images of him in action and gives a look at his sand attacks. Moves like a Shukaku team-up and the Sand Mausoleum make an appearance.
Bandai's instagram account has more pictures than what the Twitter account shared. Players can see Gaara's sand better in these pictures. Gaara is playing like a zoner, staying back and using sand constructs to do his bidding. One picture has him create a giant sand hand and slap Monkey D. Luffy away from him. Other pictures show his ultimate moves with Shukaku and the Great Sand Mausoleum.
The company has not shared a trailer or moveset video yet. As soon as more on Gaara pops up, we will let you know. For now, fans can decide which summoner or zoner they will play as first. Yugi Moto uses his cards to zone out and stay back while Gaara uses sand to overwhelm opponents. Which one will you use first?
For the first time ever, the most famous Manga heroes are thrown into a whole new battleground: our world. Uniting to fight the most dangerous threat, the Jump Force will bear the fate of the entire human kind.
Celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the famous Weekly Jump Magazine, Jump Force is also making the most of latest technologies to bring characters to life in a never-seen-before realistic design.
