Jump Force is a 3D fighting game developed by Spike Chunsoft to celebrate the 50^th anniversary of Weekly Shonen Jump. It was released in 2019 for PS4, Xbox One, and PC (via Steam). The Nintendo Switch version, which includes the base game and 9 DLC characters, was released in 2020 as Jump Force Deluxe Edition.

Characters from famous Jump manga such as One Piece, Dragon Ball, Naruto, Rurouni Kenshin, Yu Yu Hakusho, Bleach, and JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure fight each other in 3 on 3 battles. The game was developed in Unreal Engine to create richly detailed characters while maintaining the characteristics of the original manga.

Since its initial launch in 2019, multiple Character Passes have been released to add numerous characters to the game. Updates continued even in 2021, but 2022 will mark the end of its run.
