A free update is going to bring new playable characters in Jump Force. The new characters are Galena and Kane, who are designed by Dragon Ball artist Akira Toriyama. The news was seen in the latest issue of V-Jump magazine.
There is no official confirmation by Bandai Namco as of yet, but a V-Jump is a reputable magazine that has previously confirmed all the updates and free DLCs before. Having said that, we do not know when the free update is going to be available.
What is special about these two characters is that the original artist of both the characters, Akira Toriyama, has designed them from scratch for Jump Force. Toriyama is also known for his contributions to games like Chrono Trigger and Dragon Quest.
The characters already exist in the game with full move sets, however, they were unlockable and could be not be chosen as your playable character. This might change as the new update adds them to the roster of fighters.
This seems to be the third part of free DLC updates that was planned by Bandai Namco for Jump Force. The first paid DLC part was released in May that brought in a bunch of DLC characters from a wide variety of Anime and Manga Series. these included:
- Biscuit Krueger (Hunter x Hunter)
- Toushirou Hitsugaya (Bleach)
- Majin Buu (Good Buu) (Dragon Ball Z)
- Katsuki Bakugou (My Hero Academia)
- Trafalgar Law (One Piece)
- Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez (Bleach)
- Madara Uchiha (Naruto)
Jump Force was released earlier this year and featured many main characters from various manga and anime series. The game allowed you to fight against each of these characters with all of their signature skills, abilities and moves. The game seemed like a fantastic way for fans to play as their favorite characters from the anime series like One Piece, Dragon Ball Z and more.
