The legendary Shonen Jump turns 50 this year, and they’re doing some seriously special things to celebrate. As well as their super cool clothing collaboration with Uniqlo, the world’s best-selling manga magazine is producing an all-star fighting game featuring some of its greatest ever characters. Here’s everything we know about the Jump Force roster, including every confirmed character so far.

In Jump Force, you pick a team of three characters from Shonen Jump history and square off against another squad of three.

Jump Force Roster – Confirmed Characters:

Naruto Uzumaki

A worldwide manga superstar, Naruto was always going to one of the headline inclusions in the Jump Force roster. In the E3 trailer we saw an adult Naruto using Sage and Kyubi powers, so it looks like we’re talking Shippuden era. There’s no word on whether there’ll be different versions of characters, but in the Jump pantheon young Naruto is iconic enough to make some kind of appearance, surely?

Goku

It just wouldn’t be a Jump game without Goku, right? The lovable spikey-headed Saiyan featured heavily in the game’s E3 trailer and is sure to take a lead role in Jump Force despite the recent release of Dragon Ball FighterZ.

Monkey D. Luffy

The wannabe King of the Pirates, Luffy from One Piece, is another cornerstone of the Shonen Jump roster. It’ll be interesting to see how his stretchy Devil Fruit powers are balanced in Jump Force so his reach isn’t overpowered, but his move-set still feels true to his character.

Frieza

To go with the glut of good guys, Frieza is one of Shonen Jump history’s most recognisable villains. In the E3 trailer and demo we saw his final form, so that’s how he’ll probably fight the whole time.

Sasuke

Naruto’s one-time friend and nemesis joins the fray. He doesn’t show up in the E3 trailer, but is available to play with in the show floor demo that we saw just after. As with Naruto, only the Shippuden version of Sasuke has been confirmed.

Zoro

Straw Hat Pirates stalwart Roronoa Zoro also makes an appearance as a playable character in the E3 show floor demo of Jump Force. His sword-based style of fighting should make him a fun departure from the rest of the roster.

Vegeta

Everyone’s favoruite grumpy pants has to show up. This game is supposed to be a celebration of Jump’s rich history, so it’d be a travesty to leave out such a well-loved character.

Ichigo Kurosaki

Bleach was a huge hit in Shonen Jump, and remains massively popular to this day. Series protagonist Ichigo is also a great fit for a fighting game, and is going to make a great addition to the roster.

Jonathan Joestar

Granted, you could have any of the JoJos appear in Jump Force, but they have confirmed that only Jonathan will be in the game so far. JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure is a cult favourite and their inclusion would be the ultimate fan-service.

Saitama and Genos

Originally self-published, Shonen Jump were involved in a digital remake of One-punch Man, we are really excited to have him and genos in a game. Plus, he’s one of the more recent manga characters to come to prominence, so it’s great to get him in there alongside the stone-cold classics.

Natsu

From Fairytail which is another Shonen Jump favourite, Natsu has been confirmed to fight against the other characters in the game and Fairytail fans are ecstatic about his edition as they would love to see him face up against the likes of Naruto and Luffy.

Story characters that aren’t playable:

Light Yagami and Ryuk

At the end of the E3 trailer, we saw Light Yagami and Ryuk watching over the battle between the heroes and Frieza below. In an interview with Comicbook, Nick O’Leary, public relations manager for Bandai Namco, confirmed that the Death Note characters will contribute to the story of Jump Force, but won’t be playable themselves. This news opens up a whole new world of possibilities for cameos, since it sets a precedent that characters can appear without necessarily having to fight.
