JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure makes big changes between the different chapters in its saga, yet they all contribute to an incredible whole.

Games JoJos Bizarre Adventure 1993 Super Famicom RPG

The very first JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure video game came out as early as 1993. It was a detailed RPG title for the Super Famicom. There are a number of anime RPGs from this era that adapt popular series like Dragon Ball or Sailor Moon, but none of them saw a release outside of Japan. This is no different from the Super Famicom’s first JoJo's title, which specifically adapts the Stardust Crusaders saga. Despite the limitations of the console, it’s still a satisfying and faithful JoJo's experience.

A series like JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure that features such a wide cast of creative characters seems like a natural fit for the fighting genre. 1998 marked the release of Capcom’s JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure for the arcade and original Playstation, which would go on to receive a more comprehensive update in 1999’s JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Heritage for the Future for the arcade and the Dreamcast. It’s a significant game because it was released outside of Japan and introduced many people to JoJo’s characters for the first time. Heritage for the Future even received an online HD re-release in 2012.

2002’s GioGio’s Bizarre Adventure for the PlayStation 2 is a delightful surprise. It adopts a striking cel-shaded aesthetic to help recreate the manga’s look. The action-adventure title from Capcom adapts the Golden Wind story arc way before its anime had come to life.

There’s a lot of love for the series present in the game, and it specifically rewards the player for recreating events from the manga and paying attention to crucial JoJo's details. It’s nice to see Golden Wind receive such attention when Stardust Crusaders is usually the material that JoJo's video games explore.

7 JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Phantom Blood Looks To The Series' First Story Arc

Games JoJos Bizarre Adventure Phantom Blood 2006 PS2

The JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure video game license shifted from Capcom to Bandai, and the company’s first release with the JoJo franchise is an action-adventure beat-’em-up game for the PlayStation 2. 2006’s JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Phantom Blood appropriately starts at the beginning of the series, which also makes it great for newcomers. There’s a lot of the same DNA between GioGio’s Bizarre Adventure and this game, with Phantom Blood feeling like an evolution of some of the battle mechanics. Phantom Blood often gets overlooked when it comes to JoJo's adaptations, but the game would also benefit from a larger focus.

6 JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle Pulls From The Entire Franchise For A Winning Fighter

Games JoJos Bizarre Adventure All-Star Battle Mista Six Bullets

The previous JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure games have their certain charms, but JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle is an upgrade in every way. The 2013 PlayStation 3 game celebrates the 25th anniversary of the series with a fighting game that features a gigantic roster of characters from all eight JoJo's story arcs. It’s fun to mix and match different eras of JoJo's characters against each other in combat. Gameplay leans into traditional Capcom arcade fighters, but with a modern update. All Star Battle also received a Western release, which is a major rarity despite JoJo’s growing international success.

Games JoJos Bizarre Adventure Stardust Shooters

There are an endless amount of mobile video games that attempt to cash in on the popularity of anime series. JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Shooters is a free-to-play iOS and Android release from 2014 that fits into the "medal shooting action" genre, which is not unlike some of the card battling mobile fighters.

Stardust Shooters begins with characters from the first three JoJo's story arcs, but later added Diamond is Unbreakable and Golden Wind representation, too. It plays like a disposable mobile game, but it's some addictive JoJo's fun.

4 JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Eyes Of Heaven Is The Superlative JoJo's Fighting Experience

2015’s JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Eyes of Heaven uses the same engine as All Star Battle, but the PlayStation 3 and 4 title is vastly more ambitious. Eyes of Heaven features an original story that’s crafted by Araki himself and deliriously connects together characters from all eight JoJo's sagas. Eyes of Heaven functions as a strong arena fighter, but the single-player story is a love letter to the more hardcore JoJo's fans. Eyes of Heaven also received a Western release, which has boosted its profile even more.

3 JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Diamond Records Is A Robust Mobile Experience

Games JoJos Bizarre Adventure Diamond Records Josuke Kira

The gatcha trend that puts an incentive on microtransactions has been a precarious territory for video games, especially mobile titles. JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Diamond Records from 2018 for the iOS and Android fits into this mold, but there's still a lot to appreciate in the free-to-play game. Players work through story-based quests that revolve around combat and chronicle the first five sagas of the series. For a mobile title, the characters actually look decent and the gameplay is polished. Diamond Records had a dedicated audience, but the game, unfortunately, ended its service at the end of 2019.

2 JoJo’s Pitter Patter Pop! Is An Adorable Puzzle Title With Loads Of Extras

Games JoJo Pitter Patter Pop Fight

JoJo’s Pitter Patter Pop! is one of the bigger deviations when it comes to JoJo's video games, both in genre and style. The 2018 mobile release for iOS and Android is a tile-matching puzzle game that uses a super-deformed aesthetic for its characters. Pitter Patter Pop! features hundreds of characters from all the way up to Golden Wind and uses the puzzle mechanic to engage in iconic battles from the series. Pitter Patter Pop! doesn’t waste its cute design and also offers plenty of social interaction aspects and perks like decorating the JoJo Mansion.

1 JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Last Survivor Embraces The Current Battle Royale Craze

Games JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Last Survivor Jotaro Attack

The battle royale trend in video games is undeniable, and many popular properties have shifted to spin-offs that cater towards this chaotic style of multiplayer gameplay. The most recent JoJo's video game is Last Survivor, which hit Japanese arcades in December of 2019. JoJo's is the perfect series for a battle royale game, and Last Survivor features over a dozen playable characters from between Stardust Crusaders and Golden Wind. Up to 20 players can be in combat at once, but keeping the game limited to arcades seems like a disservice.
