I'm optimistically hoping to be impressed by this game, given how good Bamco's latest Soul Calibur game is... but I've never been overly fond of the previous Jump games - despite being invested in some of the SJ IP's.
Fingers crossed that this lives up to being more than just another SSB clone.

just another SSB clone

SSB? It looks more like the 3D Naruto, One Piece and Dragonball games than any SSB stuff.

Whatever it looks like, it's a multiplayer arena brawler... like SSB.

This game reunites all childhood's fav heroes to fight each others in real 3D models and HD graphics!

All weebs wet dream finally came true!!!

 

[kumikochan]

Titititititititititititititit sound effect is quite good if i say so myself

You mean.... Its a better multiplayer arena brawler??? 3D > 2D

 

[duwen]

Wouldn't be hard - I think SSB is one of the most over rated franchises ever anyway!

 

[SANIC]

Not to be nitpicku but it's actually manga not mangas

 

[spotanjo3]

Happy for people who wants it. However.. Not for me. I will skip it.

Yeah but again: It's 3D while SSB is 2D.

 

[Beerus]

i want to get it but they need to polish the game when a charecter gets hit during combat its so bad they just drop to the floor i wish they make the game more fluid like the naruto storm series

You didn't like jump ultimate stars?

You didn't like jump ultimate stars?

Was that the DS one? That one was ok.

 

[waveathon]

Jump Victory VS has a better line up. Why did they removed Kenshin and shishio? oh yeah... DLC... F***

 

[BORTZ]

I am not really thinking that I am going to get blown away by this game, BUT if find this stuff kinda fun, regardless.

which heads to current-gen consoles

I guess the Switch is past gen, then...

 

[CrossOut]

Looking at the gameplay on Youtube It reminds me of the Budokai Tenkaichi dragonball z games on ps2. Ill give this one a go it looks like it could be fun.

 

[xdarkx]

I don't get why ryo is in this game. He doesn't even have any super power like the rest.

Same day as Dead or Alive 6

What about breast physics?
