'Jump Force' Beta: More Characters Confirmed; Open Beta Remaining Dates Still Unknown
Bandai Namco has announced more characters coming to "Jump Force." However, Bandai Namco has yet to reveal the details about the postponed second half of the open beta. Here’s what we know about this issue.
As seen on the official Bandai Namco Twitter, the "Jump Force" announcements were mostly about the upcoming content in the game’s release. So far, here are the new characters confirmed to make an appearance in "Jump Force."
- Dragon Shiryu, from "Saint Seiya"
- Kaguya Otsutsuki, from "Naruto"
- Gaara, from "Naruto"
- Kakashi Hatake, from "Naruto"
In addition, two villains were also confirmed, namely Garena and Kane. Garena looks like an insect woman with powers of ice, while Kane looks like a villain from the "Dragon Ball" series. The full extent of their powers and their stakes as villains in "Jump Force" are yet to be known. Lastly, the story teaser includes some of the "Jump Force" heroes being mind-controlled and a cube which could be an important item for the "Jump Force" heroes.
As for the "Jump Force" beta, Bandai Namco has postponed the last two days of the beta at an unknown date. The latter half of the open beta tryouts was postponed as the issues in the first two days were preventing players from fully enjoying the game.
Soon after, Bandai Namco and the "Jump Force" developers were able to push out a patch that fixed the issues and finally allowed players to try out the 17 characters available in the beta. But even though the fix was successful in providing smooth gameplay for the players, Bandai Namco still decided to postpone the two remaining days of the open beta. As of now, Bandai Namco has at least two weeks before the release of the full "Jump Force" game on Feb. 15.
Potentially, the next half of the beta will include a more characters or an entirely new set of playable characters in "Jump Force." Some characters confirmed in the game weren’t playable in the beta which could be great in further promoting the game to the players.
