One of the bigger surprises out of E3 this year was the announcement of Bandai Namco’s Jump Force. The game is bringing together some of the biggest stars of anime into a single, high-action fighting game. It’s like Jump Super Stars, but it’s prettier, faster, and will actually be sold here in the West. Jump Force is another title in the publisher’s arsenal of fighting games, that continue to just eat Capcom’s lunch in that genre at every single turn.

The game is being developed by Spike Chunsoft, and it shares its DNA with One Piece: Burning Blood and the last generation title J-Stars Victory Vs+, only this game is a hell of a lot more spectacular than either of those games could ever hope to be. Bandai Namco gave me the chance to try the fighter out during a recent preview event and while it doesn’t do anything to nudge me closer to actually enjoying the simplistic 3D brawling action, it certainly is a sight to behold.
