    The game sucks so bad that I wished it had English voice acting along with the realistic looking graphics that made it look awful. Im sorry Bandai, I love you but if you wanna make a another anime fighting game, make it better than this piece of Garbage.

    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 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

Das hätte man so einfach lösen oder nachbessern können, ich kann das Spiel leider wirklich nicht empfehlen.

The combat, which was supposed to save the game, is repetitive and has a horrible camera set! Navigating the lobby is complete torture, the space feels like a maze, there is always the same annoying music in the background and your character is slow, very slow. And from what I've seen, it's not even possible to enter a "VS" mode without having to enter that hellish lobby. The disregard they had with the game is unbelievable. There's still an avalanche of cutscenes that can't be skipped, and that don't add any crap to the narrative (which in itself is despicable). I just couldn't get a refund because the deadline for doing so had already passed.… Expand

    Unlike the characters in the anime universes the game hosts, the things it promises are very inadequate.

The only thing the game understands from defense is to avoid blows depending on luck. The game has good protections against cheating, but the problem is that the npc in the game are illegally cheating, which is enough to alienate the user from the game.

    The game is very disappointing and gets bored quickly.

    -Extremely boring story
    -Each character uses the same combos, which are only visually different.
    -Much of the content is poorly explained.
    -The arenas look nice, but some characters seem like they jumped out of a low budget CGI movie.

    The combat is mediocre at best, the graphics are actually good, and the music is just annoying. The roster is quite big, but there's way too many micro-transactions. The story is also very boring and uninteresting. Not to mention the cutscenes and dialogue. I don't recommend this game, not even on sale.

    With that being said, there's also a lot missing from this game, for example, while you can change your outfit, none of them give you bonuses, you cannot buy healing items to take in to combat, the leveling system doesn't allow you to distribute skill points and there's no character sheet to see what your stats are like, because of that, I am seriously questioning if leveling up even does anything.

    I like the concept of the game, I like how it looks more realistic in comparison to some of their other games. The game world on high looks genuinely beautiful.

    At the end of the day though, the entire time I was playing Jump Force, I was finding myself wishing it was more like Xenoverse. I want to be able to collect equipment that matters, I want to be able to see my character's stats and have a say in how they grow over time. Jump Force feels like an incomplete product.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. LOL What happened here... This should have been a swan song wish fulfillment for the fans.
    Is this the equivalent of a anime cash grab akin to a **** movie license game?

    To be truthful I did not even finish the game since about 3 to 4 hours into the game the flashy and cool fight animations started to get really grinding. I do not know if this was because I am not really into fighting games in general, for example MK or the injustice franchise is a few that i have never played since just arcade type fighting does not do it for me.

    This is mainly why I was a lot more disappointed since I expected much more beginning from the free form 3D movement I saw in the trailers up to a good story with all of our favorite anime and manga heroes. But OMG was this a shoddy failure of an attempt.

    The story if there is any seemed dull, since I did not finish the game. As around about hour 2 into the game all the dialogue was jarringly just on screen text even though I could clearly see the characters lip movement.
    I lost all interest in the game as soon as Light Yagami shows up to my delight with a proper sound plus dialogue cut-scene only for Ryuuk to have the same lazy on screen text dialogue. I just could not take anymore and I uninstalled the game right there.
    I was tied into the game for a couple of hours enjoying the average fight mechanics and a little above average Ability animations but gamers like me need a better story and a gamer+fan of the anime sure as hell need a lot more than that. I don't think it should be that hard to come up with an original story for all these anime's to interact with each other.

    Wait for a sale or something or maybe if we get a sequel the way it is meant to be.    … Expand

While it has better cutscenes, but sometimes the cutscene in the game is straight up awkward, like the part when the "villains" in the game tried to escape, there will be 2 ways of escaping, just walked to other direction or float slowly into a portal. Which pretty much sums up that they completely lazy to add some animation for their escaping animation.

    - Is it just me or the majority of the main villains' face is pretty much look like they came from Dragon ball's world, *Spoiler* like the director and his Villainy form, Prometheus?

    - Mass Effect Andromeda's lip sync looks better than this game btw

    - 40 jump characters plus 3 DLC characters is pretty good, though i feel like they don't do anything that would help you progress the story or online pvp

    - Story is bland, it's too shonen and there is no multiple ending like what they previously do in SAO:FB

    - A lot of issues, like seriously, A LOTS OF THEM

    - Fight system is pretty bland, you have to make your own combo with ability from different characters the game has to offer, though the enemies just gonna spam your abilities or block everything. Oh, don't forget that everytime you do a progress, the AI still superior both tactics and damage, don't expect too much from your HP, it will drain faster than your enemy AI's HP

    - Play this with your lights on, the graphics is too Flashy, also seizure alert

    Conclusion: If you're a Jump fan or simply looking for anime game, i do not recommend this game. but if you insist, go ahead.    … Expand

    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.
