Along with his allies, Jotaro must travel to Egypt to face off against the evil DIO. Jotaro Kujo is a teenager and heir to the Joestar lineage Jotaro develops a Stand, a corporeal manifestation of his willpower.

The game follows the events of the Third part of the JoJo saga, Stardust Crusaders. His characters appear just like they do in the manga, and the sprite work made by Capcom is impeccable. Hirohiko Araki, creator of the Jojo series, works in the game as a creative consultant.

Sure, some characters might be a bit obscure, even for fans, but the roster feels well balanced and it includes many popular picks. The Street Fighter III influence in this game is almost palpable, and that’s a good thing: not only is the game visually pleasing, JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure is a competent fighting game that can be enjoyed by non-fans of the series.

Inspired by its source material, the game also has a unique “Stand Mode” for each character: ‘Stands’ are guardian spirits that boost their master’s stats, giving them an edge in battle. Each character feels genuinely unique, and the inclusion of character-specific super moves adds an extra layer of strategy to most fights.
