[VSG]

Bandai Namco first teased their upcoming Shonen Jump crossover fighting game, JUMP FORCE, at E3 2018 and has since been releasing a snippet of info here and there. With Paris Game Week ongoing, they saw it fit to release a new trailer for the game which provides more information including a new stage and two new characters- Kenshiro from Fist of the North Star, and Ryo Saeba from City Hunter. The trailer embedded below showcases some of their moves as accessible in the game, and we also now know that the game will release February 15, 2019. Pre-orders for the game are also up now with costume and lobby accessory bonuses, although not on PC yet. History tells us to expect a Steam page sooner than later for those interested in the game.

Wonder if they will allow Kenshiros gory finishers on other characters/licenses.
