A new trailer for JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R has been released, showcasing new gameplay systems. Check out the trailer for the upcoming anime fighting game below.
The trailer shows off in-game systems and game mode. The System Introduction Trailer, as it’s called, is narrated by the characters Rohan Kishibe and Koichi Hirose from JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure Part 4: Diamond is Unbreakable.
The trailer shows off some of the combat capabilities of characters from Part 1 and Part 2, utilising the Hamon fighting techniques rather than the Stands that the later parts of the series would become known for. Hamon can be stored up and used for powerful attacks.
Players can use assist characters to help them in fights for a single attack, either defensively to interrupt an incoming attack, or offensively to continue a combo. There is also the Stylish Guard, which is essentially a parry with a slight camera shift, allowing players to instantly deflect attacks if they can time it right.
For accessibility, JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R also has a new Easy Beat system, which allows players to pull off long combos by pressing the same button repeatedly.
On the Game Modes front, the game features All-Star Battle, 1v1 battles, 3v3 battles, Arcade Mode, Endless Battle, and Practice Mode.
JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R is coming to PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch on September 2.
