    Fighting animations of the characters are beautiful. Character dubbings are successful. There are a lot of fighters we can choose. BUT Story and storytelling is very bad. Cutscenes are awful. Connection issues are frustrating. AS A RESULT, This game is not the anime crossover that I expected.

    i dont know if its just me, but i see people saying that the roster is good, but i think its garbage. what good does it make, putting one or two characters from 30 different shows? you see seya and shiryu, and you want at least the other two, right? i was very surprised with fly and yugi, but you cant even make a team with other guys from their manga/anime. its way more frustrating thani dont know if its just me, but i see people saying that the roster is good, but i think its garbage. what good does it make, putting one or two characters from 30 different shows? you see seya and shiryu, and you want at least the other two, right? i was very surprised with fly and yugi, but you cant even make a team with other guys from their manga/anime. its way more frustrating than appealing, imo.
    the fighting system and graphics are not the worst but neither are them really good. i dont know, i'm not really that fan of these japanese characters, but but i was expecting so much more from the game.
    oh, and the ""story mode" is just terrible, my god is it terrible.    … Expand

    When I saw the trailer on E3, I was hooked. I love Naruto, Goku and Luffy but not this game. The fighting is fun... at first, the missions are repetitive. It feels like something's not right. Like a piece of the game is missing and might show up in some dlc or something. I'm not impressed Shonen. I feel like Dragon ball Xenoverse 1 and 2 were way more fun and interesting.

    The history is poor, but the multiplayer is pretty decent especially if you are a big fan of Shonen Jump's series.
    Don't buy it for the full price.

    Jump Force basa todo en sus piñas, patadas y combinaciones que rompen la pantalla. A costa del desequilibrio en algunos momentos, hace lugar para luchas de tú a tú y escenas sacadas directamente de los animé. Los movimientos frenéticos están presentes. Las deidades guerreras están bien representadas.

    Por otra parte, está cargado de aristas genéricas que no se compensan con el fan service, aun con sus sus sagas extendidas de forma pareja. El chiste de reconocerse como manga y el aporte de sus personajes más queribles son siempre bienvenidos. Pero no así unas mecánicas que pueden cansar hasta al más fanático, y unos apartados de conexión débil. La lucha continúa, solo que no en el mejor de los crossovers y bajo un precio demasiado alto.    … Expand

    As most have said the story is very bland. Combat is pretty but lacks any depth or nuance. Only reason i can go a 5 on this is cause the character selection is a dream for anime fans.

    Как файтинг неплохо, на пару раз сойдёт, а в целом проходняк.

    Was a Xenoverse/NinjaStorm clone, with customization from Shonen Jump franchises. It wasn't bad, it wasn't great, but it is more sad that they have taken it down forever. So nobody will really know in the future. Hopefully they do a sequel, and won't have to argue over other licensing like Dai from Dragon Quest. It would be best to leave those type of things as DLC only and not apart ofWas a Xenoverse/NinjaStorm clone, with customization from Shonen Jump franchises.

    a gameplay é muito viciante e prende bastante, o jogo é injustiçado demais, a história é péssima, as animações dos personagens é paia

    Jump Force, oh boy, what a letdown. As a fighting game featuring anime shounen characters, it had so much potential! The actual fighting mechanics are decent; I'm no expert in fighting games, but I found it quite enjoyable, and the animations are undeniably awesome. But alas, that's where the positives mostly end.

    The story, ugh, let's not even go there. It's downright garbage. The    Jump Force, oh boy, what a letdown. As a fighting game featuring anime shounen characters, it had so much potential!

    The story, ugh, let's not even go there. It's downright garbage. The dialogues, also garbage. And those 1k grindy missions? You guessed it, garbage too. Not to mention the utter disappointment of lacking voice acting in 99% of the story; it feels like a major oversight.

    Creating your protagonist should have been a highlight, a chance to immerse yourself in the world, but it falls flat and ends up feeling like a wasted opportunity. Plus, the fact that all three characters in a fight share the same health bar? Come on, it's another misstep that adds to the frustration.

    And let's talk about the outfits. Clipping issues that remind you of free-to-play MMOs? Shameful. Absolutely shameful. The developers should have put in more effort to avoid these glaring issues.

    To add to the list of grievances, there's that glorified wannabe-menu where your character runs like they're on ecstasy. Seriously, what were they thinking? It's just off-putting and makes you question the overall design choices.

    Alright, in all fairness, if you're looking for some fun, throwing down with your favorite anime characters, then sure, I can recommend Jump Force for that alone. The fighting aspect has its moments. But beyond that, it's all mediocrity at best. The potential was there, but it fell short in almost every other aspect. It's a bitter pill to swallow for fans like me who expected so much more.    … Expand

    This game gets a lot of hate which some of it is deserved, It's very simple, The story is nonsensical, the art style is strange and it can be a slog to get through at times. I am one of the few people who enjoy this game. Fighting game inputs confuse me and I like games that I can have simple fun with.

This is a fun not super competitive fighting game that gets some undeserved hate. If you are not a huge fighting game fan and like these characters give it a go, but make sure you get it on sale.… Expand

    Jump Force is an interesting experiment, but for its handful of merits there is a ton of annoying shortcomings.

    The combat is beautiful and flashy enough to make any fighting game or JRPG fan feel satisfied and while the graphics may seem a bit stiff, none of that matters during the fast-paced matches where you'll probably pay more attention to the ratio between your HP bar and your enemy's. Jump force allows players to finally answer those age-old questions, such as Who would win in a fight between Goku and Naruto Uzumaki?, which have been the subject of debates in forum discussions, memes or video commentaries, and that alone should be enough of a reason to make fans of the genre interested in the game.

    While a fighting game featuring a wide variety of Weekly Shonen Jump characters seems like a no-brainer, the shoddy execution and surprisingly limited roster hinder JUMP FORCE from being the all-star it wants to be.
