Jump Force fügt Bleach Charaktere hinzu

Bandai Namco hat drei neue Charaktere zum kommenden Anime Kampfspiel Jump Force angekündigt, ebenso wie einen neuen Kampfschauplatz. Die drei neuen Charaktere entstammen der Manga-Serie Bleach: Ichigo, Rukia und Aizen. "Bleach follows the exploits of fiery teenager Ichigo Kurosaki who inherits the powers of a Shinigami (soul reaper), which sees him take on the duty of defending humans from evil spirits and travel to ghostly realms to protect them. Joining the roster of Jump Force, which sees the greatest heroes and villains from the 50-year history of Shueisha’s influential Japanese Weekly Shonen Jump manga do battle, are three iconic names from Bleach."

Hongkong wird einer der vielen "real-world locations" sein "Set at street-level, manga characters will be illuminated by neon lanterns and the dazzling lights of a rain-soaked city as they battle in the shadow of Blackbeard’s mysteriously crashed ship."

Hier gibt es noch eine kurze Einleitung zu den drei angekündigten Charakteren, ebenso wie neue Screenshots (drauf klicke um sie in Originalgröße zu sehen):

• "Ichigo Kurosaki – Once a simple high school student with the ability to see ghosts, Ichigo became one of the strongest ever Shinigami (soul reapers) after his encounter with a Hollow (a spectral being) that tried to kill him.
• Rukia Kuchiki – Rukia is a soul reaper from a noble family who specializes in Kido (the magic of the soul reapers). Her ice-type blade is considered to be among the most beautiful swords of the Souls Society.
• Sosuke Aizen – A captain of the Gotei 13, Aizen is a mysterious man. While calm on the surface, behind this serene appearance is perhaps one of the most skilled members of the Soul Society."
