Evolution of all JoJo's Bizarre Adventure games from 1993-2022!
Several video games based on Hirohiko Araki's long-running manga and anime series JoJo's Bizarre Adventure have been released. The first was a role-playing video game based on the third story arc which used the series's title, released in March of 1993 for the Super Famicom. On December 1, 1998, Capcom released a arcade fighting game, which was also adapted from the third arc; the game was titled simply JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (though it was released as JoJo's Venture in the west), with an updated version titled JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Heritage for the Future released later that year. The arcade game was ported to both the PlayStation and Dreamcast on October 14, 1999, and a high-definition version was released for PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade on August 21, 2012. These fighting games were the first pieces of JoJo related media released in North America, exposing the characters to many western players for the first time.
At a July 5, 2012 press conference celebrating the 25th anniversary of JoJo, Araki himself announced JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle for the PlayStation 3, produced by CyberConnect2 and published by Bandai Namco Games. Released on August 29, 2013, the game is a 2D fighting game that takes inspiration from Capcom's arcade titles.[2] The same developer and publisher would later release JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Eyes of Heaven, an arena-based fighting game that itself takes mechanics from All Star Battle, on December 17, 2015. On December 18, 2019, a battle royale arcade game titled JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Last Survivor was released in arcades.
Before the first JoJo game was released, Bandai released a Weekly Shōnen Jump crossover adventure game titled Famicom Jump: Hero Retsuden on February 15, 1989. Joseph Joestar from the second arc is one of the playable characters, while Santana and Speedwagon made cameo appearances. Its sequel Famicom Jump II: Saikyō no Shichinin, released on December 2, 1991, features Jotaro as a selectable character. Joseph, Avdol, Kakyoin and Polnareff also appear in this game. Both games were available on the Famicom. Characters from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure were also featured in the 2005 Nintendo DS Weekly Shōnen Jump crossover game Jump Super Stars and its sequel Jump Ultimate Stars, including Jotaro Kujo and Dio Brando as playable characters.
