Jump Force won’t be released until sometime next year, but the hype surrounding the fighting game is already reaching fever pitch. Since it was debuted at E3 2018, fans of anime series such as Naruto, Yu-Gi-Oh!, and Dragon Ball have lost their collective minds about seeing each franchise’s iconic characters together in the same game. With Jump Force expected to come out on a number of platforms, can we expect to see Jump Force on PS4 when it is released?
Jump Force on PS4: Will it Come Out on PS4?
Long story short, yes it will. It would be crazy for publisher Bandai Namco not to release Jump Force on PS4. The best-selling console of this videogame generation, and the biggest console in Asian markets, Jump Force is a title ripe for exploitation in Japan, South Korea, and other Asian nations. Coupled with the wealth of anime fans in the US and Europe too, the game can expect to sell extremely well on Sony’s console and give developer Spike Chunsoft a hit title.
Jump Force on PS4: When Will it Be Released?
Right now, Jump Force on PS4 has no confirmed release date. The title was only unveiled at this year’s Microsoft E3 press conference, and it is likely still in an early stage of development. It is said to be utilizing Unreal Engine 4, and the 2019 release window enable Jump Force to commemorate the the 50th anniversary of Weekly Shonen Jump.
Weekly Shonen Jump is the best-selling and longest-running manga magazine in the world, and its first official issue was released on August 1, 1968. That might give some indication of when we could expect to see Jump Force drop, but the summer months are notoriously sparse in terms of video game releases. We’ll have to wait for more concrete news on an official Jump Force on PS4 release date.
