Jump Force Confirms Four New Naruto Characters
Everyone and their grandmothers have been announced for the roster of Bandai Namco’s upcoming anime fighter, Jump Force, but we’re not complaining. With the recent reveal of My Hero Academia’s Deku and Black Clover’s Asta, four new Naruto characters are preparing to join the fight. Introducing the next wave of fighters, there’s Boruto Uzumaki, Gaara of the Sand, Kakashi Hatake, and Kaguya Otsutsuki.
Thanks to fellow Naruto and Jump Force fan, Yonkou Productions, the latest publication of Japanese magazine Weekly Jump reveals all! While official announcements have not yet been made by Bandai Namco for the rest of the crew, Bandai Namco US further confirmed Boruto’s presence on Twitter. Check it out:

Based on a fan translation of the magazine page above, Boruto has 3 special moves: the Vanishing Rasengan, Boruto Burst, and Three-Way Lightning. His Awakening Technique called the Boruto Spiral allows said character to rush at the enemy with Bunshin technique clones, before hammering the final nail on the coffin with a devastating Rasengan. Thanks, OrganicDinosaur!
