Using the Stand user (スタンド使い, Sutando Tsukai) style, Jotaro is designed to specialise in close-range combat, having high speed and damage output, while also being versatile enough to deal with distant enemies.
Daisuke Ono reprises his voice acting role from All-Star Battle, having also voiced Jotaro in the Stardust Crusaders anime adaptation. He expresses how this game is the crystallization of the love that JoJo fans have for the series, and how it's a work that will lead into the future, becoming the foundation for passing JoJo to the next generation.[2]
In the game's first demo, Kakyoin was Jotaro's default partner, and Jotaro and Kakyoin are the only two characters who have appeared in both of the game's two demos.
As a Stand user, Jotaro is one of many characters with wildly varied abilities that grant him uniqueness in battle.
Style/Specials/etc
I stopped time...
Jotaro instantly stops time for roughly three seconds. His partner and opponents are unable to move, and he is able to initiate any action or attack with impunity. Exclusive to Jotaro is the ability to pick up and throw his opponents while time is stopped, even at each other, heavily damaging them on contact. However, other time-stopping characters may activate their own ability to enter Jotaro's stopped time. This ability's cooldown is equal to 40 counts of the battle timer, making it the longest cooldown of any ability in the game.
A special variation of "I stopped time..." becomes available under specific conditions, causing the camera to dramatically zoom into Jotaro as he stops time while the battle pauses completely, thus providing him impunity when activating it.
Both Jotaro's partner and one opponent must be Retired.
Jotaro must perform a combo route of Normal > Normal > Powerful Attack on the remaining opponent (i.e. the universal launcher combo).
"I stopped time..." must be immediately initiated following the launching hit.
Star Finger!
Star Platinum explosively hyperextends its fingers out and swings them in a wide arc, sending opponents caught flying.
ORA, ORA!
Star Platinum unleashes a barrage of 22 punches, sending opponents caught flying on the final hit. If the attack button is rapidly pressed, the attack can be extended to add up to 10 more punches.
I'll kill you as you take your next breath.
After a short delay, Star Platinum inhales with great strength to pull opponents in, giving Jotaro the chance to attack first. This move can be 'blocked', but the pull effect cannot be nullified.
ORAAAA!
Star Platinum flies forward and delivers a heavy ground pound that kicks up debris, knocking opponents to the ground hard enough for them to bounce. This attack can also hit opponents that are down.
EX - Star Finger!
The skill initiates quicker and Jotaro is invincible upon activation. Instead of sending opponents flying, the attack itself will instead leave them crumpling, opening them up to further attack.
EX - ORA, ORA!
The skill initiates quicker and Jotaro is invincible upon activation. The punches are thrown faster and do more damage.
Dual Heat Attacks
Solo - ORA, ORA, ORA!
Star Platinum begins by punching the opponent off their feet. Jotaro slides his finger along the rim of his hat (a callback to his fight with Kakyoin) before Star Platinum pummels the opponent in real-time, delivering a final punch to the abdomen that sends them flying.
With Noriaki Kakyoin - Use the edge of the ring — just like sumo.
Kakyoin holds the opponent in place with Hierophant Green, allowing Jotaro and Star Platinum to pull them in by Hierophant Green's tail and unleash a barrage of punches that sends them flying. Kakyoin appears once more behind the enemy mid-air to deliver an Emerald Splash. Throughout the whole attack, Jotaro and Kakyoin converse about Sumo, referencing the events in the Wheel of Fortune chapters.
Jotaro and Polnareff summon Star Platinum and Silver Chariot to take turns attacking the opponent. Star Platinum follows with an uppercut, and the two of them begin yelling out their Stand Cries ("ORAORAORA!" and "HORAHORAHORA!") while pummeling and stabbing the opponent, respectively. This attack references how they defeat Alessi in Chapter 209.
With Old Joseph Joestar - It's not cheating if the secret doesn't get out!
Joseph jumps into the air and tries to snare the opponent with Hermit Purple, only to miss. Briefly shocked and emoting his iconic "OH MY GOD!" as Jotaro expresses disappointment, he drops the facade to reveal that he had tied the opponent with a rope during his previous attack, subsequently sending a Ripple current through the rope to shock them as Jotaro and Star Platinum move in to barrage them into submission.
Star Platinum and Stone Free send the opponent into the air with a dual uppercut, before Jolyne wraps them in a cocoon made of Stone Free's string. After Jotaro confirms the best angle to hit, they pummel it with both of their Stands.
