    This game is only for fans more than anything
    Best part:
    -The design
    -The animations
    -Everything in this game makes references to the Jojo franchise, even small details make sense in the canon.
    Worst part:
    -Gameplay
    -Multiplayer
    -Unbalanced
    -DLC
    -Very little content in general, you can achieve the platinum in less than 6 hours

    + uniqe JoJo´s game style, nice manga graphic, cool characters, strong japanese voice, a lot of fighters +20, finish moves looks great - short story mode, online lag, no deep battle atmosphere Conclusion: Fans of the Manga/Anime, you can buy this game blind, but if you´re not in the materia, this game looks strange to you (watch first anime/manga).

    - short story mode, online lag, no deep battle atmosphere

    Conclusion: Fans of the Manga/Anime, you can buy this game blind, but if you´re not in the materia, this game looks strange to you (watch first anime/manga). So the game contains all Manga stuff, and here is the big point of the game, the awesome graphics and finish moves. They looks better than in ever other anime-fighting game, great manga style and the finisher-moves boosts all out. The game offers more than 20 fighters, with uniqe moves and fighting styles. The original japanese voices are good and if you want to play a "diffrent" fighting game with more divas as normally, this is it.    … Expand

    If you're a hardcore JoJo fan (like me) then YOU NEED TO BUY THIS GAME.
    But if you're just a regular fighting game fan who knows nothing about JoJo then you should skip this game.
    The gameplay is good but not perfect There are a lot of balancing issues and the Story mode SUCKS Overall very enjoyable game none the less. But it has an amazing soundtrack A wide selection of characters    If you're a hardcore JoJo fan (like me) then YOU NEED TO BUY THIS GAME.

    All Star Battle might not win any new fans for the franchise but will make existing ones happy. [07/2014, p.71]

    Does little to open the door for anyone other than JoJo vets. [July 2014, p.80]

    JoJo's Bizarre Adventure All-Star Battle is as baffling a fighting game as you will ever play. With a large cast of eccentric characters and some of the most stylish moves you'll ever see, Namco Bandai have finally released a good anime game. It's not without a few problems, but JoJo has enough charm to warrant taking the risk.
