In a bit of a surprise one the main protagonist from my all time favorite card game type anime has somehow found himself on the roster of a fighting game. That’s right, you read the title. Yugi Motou from the classic anime Yu-gi-oh is going to be featured in the upcoming Jump Force. The news first hit when Bandai Namco dropped a screenshot that featured the King of Games on Twitter.

There isn’t any gameplay footage yet so we don’t know what his moveset will be like but it’ll more than likely make use of his deck. Things could get interesting should he make use of summons, trap, and spell cards. Then again he might just beat some ass using that duel disk because that thing is a weapon on it’s own. I already know Yugi is going to be my main and it’ll be time to “G-G-G-G-G-G-Get these hands”. Stay tuned for more Jump Force news as it comes out. Jump Force releases sometime in 2019.

If they really make Yugi throw hands in the game, that’s all I need to definitely buy it. I’m hoping that will be the case but then again I wouldn’t mind seeing Goku fight the Dark Magician or something along those lines.

Unfortunately they have him using the cards (Dark Magician/magician girl, & Slifer the Sky Dragon). Since character creation is gonna be in the came you might be able to make a yugi like character that can throw some hands. If you wanna catch up on the details about the game I threw out some post talking about it.

It would be appreciated if you could link me to the post, I haven’t really kept up much with Jump Force.

My guess is it’d be like Pokèmon Trainer in smash bros.

That’s what I thought too but I honestly hope they go a different route because having him play like that would be more like playing as Dark Magician or any of Yugi’s other signature monsters.

Yeah, but at the same time his ability is summoning monsters so it’d make sense to have like dark magician, celtic guardian, and kuriboh or some shit
