Shueisha announced the development of the game in February 2018.[1] Jumputi Heroes was released March 28, 2018 as part of Jump's 50th-anniversary celebration.[2][3] It is available on both Android and iOS devices.
Gameplay
As a puzzle RPG, Jumputi Heroes contains elements of both genres. Like an RPG, players level up their characters, and combat progresses in turns. However, the strength of characters' attacks is determined by how well the player can move and match colored icons. Matching certain icons can also engage Support Characters.
Jumputi Heroes is also a gacha game, so many characters are acquired in a lottery-based system. Others can be obtained from the games' levels.
Characters
Jumputi Heroes features characters from dozens of franchises across Weekly Shōnen Jump's history. Each playable character can be equipped as a support as well. Some are also enemies, but other characters only appear as enemies and are not playable. Additionally, the game incorporates individual panels from each manga series, in which all playable characters and many other characters make appearances.
The following characters who appear in the game are from the One Piece franchise.
Playable Characters
Monkey D. Luffy (Post-Timeskip, Pre-Timeskip Gear Second, Gear Fourth: Boundman, Gear Fourth: Snakeman, Sabaody Archipelago, Ace and Luffy, Monkey D. Luffy and Son Goku, Luffytaro, Nightmare Luffy)
