In the video with the more in-depth combat footage of Yoruichi in action, what’s shown is less how she controls, but instead shows how she will fight against the player. Having been taken from the Jump Festa 2021 event, the gameplay footage also has live commentary, although it’s in Japanese, so some viewers may have trouble understanding exactly what is happening. The footage itself does showcase the character’s new fighting style, with Yoruichi’s utility appearing to match otherJump ForceDLC charactersas a hopeful for hitting as a high tiered fighter.
The character herself fits into the game as well, withYoruichi jumping into theJump Forceart style about as well as otherBleachcharacters to join, such as Ichigo and Rukia. Even with the extended looks at the new fighter’s abilities, it’ll still be up to players to ultimately figure out exactly how she stacks up against the competition, as is often the case with new members of any fighting roster. However, players should be excited, as Yoruichi brings all of the flashy, high-speed combat she’s known for inBleachintoJump Forcein an intimidating package that seems to have some of the players showcasing her abilities on their toes.
Any new character coming to a popular fight title is reason enough to celebrate for fighting fans, and if the excitement from Yoruichi’s announcement is anything to go by, her fame speaks well enough for itself. As for otherDLC characters coming toJump Forcein the future, it looks like Yoruichi isn’t the only piece of excitement that Spike Chunsoft has in store for 2021. With any luck, the final fighter in the Character Pass 2 will be as exciting asBleach’s ninja fighter.
