I'm not the biggest fan of this game, or arena fighters in general, but my friends seem to enjoy it. To be honest, I don't understand why Bandai-Namco didn't just announced the game for the Switch since the beginning, considering the bad reviews that it got I don't think this port will be a success outside of the casual crowd, which I don't think it's very big for this type of game on the Switch. It would be better if Namco could port Tekken and Soul calibur instead, if MK11 manages to run on the Switch I think it could be possible for the other those too. And considering that Dragon Ball Fighterz already got ported, I guess Kakarot will be next.

A new JoJo fighter...hopefully Josuke or, well since they did Boruto with his dad as a teen, Jotaro's daughter?

It would be easy to predict but this game sold big time when it came out, even after the equally as bad trailers and beta releases.

Part 6 doesn't have an anime yet so it's definitely not Jolyne.

As a matter of fact, they still have assets from J-Stars they can use for this DLC which would make Hiei and either Jonathan or Young Joseph possible.

I wouldn't doubt they'd find a way for Hiei...I wish they would put Joey Wheeler from YGO in this too. I'm glad they're putting Shoto though, he's a good match.

Jonathan or Joseph might be good too. Avdol would be awesome too. They've got so many characters to choose from.

I play on the X-Box, but the switch might make things better...just hope it's handheld mode though, I have a Lite.
