Jump Force

A Jump Force update and data-miners have revealed the final Character Pass 2 DLC characters; Giorno Giovanna from Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure, and Yoruichi Shihōin from Bleach.

Character Pass 2 DLC characters so far include My Hero Academia’s Shoto Todoroki, Meruem from Hunter X Hunter, and Yu Yu Hakusho’s Hiei. However, two more characters launched before they were supposed to be published.


Thanks to a “work-in-progress” update that went live by mistake, data miners found the last two DLC characters of Character Pass 2; Giorno and Yoruichi. Based on YouTube videos, the pair launched by at least October 21st.

You can find videos of them in action below.

Bandai Namco Entertainment have now officially acknowledged the leak. In a statement, they stated “Due to a minor technical mix-up, some “work-in-progress” character updates were released to a small number of Jump Force players (this issue has now been solved).”

In addition, Bandai Namco Entertainment stated that Giorno was still in development, and as such may differ from the videos released on YouTube and on social media. No announcement on when these characters would be officially available for purchase was announced at this time.
