Style Action - Ogre Street
Speedwagon summons Tattoo and Amato (known in-game as "the Asian"). The two will follow him until they are ordered to attack, are hit (taking them out of battle until Speedwagon summons them again), or if they separate far enough from him.
Partner Icon
Shows the statuses of Tattoo and Amato. If an icon is glowing, that person is readily available; If it is dim, they are active and about the stage; If there is a red cross over the icon, that person has been incapacitated until Speedwagon uses his Style Action again.
It's Just a Little Scratch!
Speedwagon performs a brief gesture to psych himself up, and gains super armor (or unflinching to enemy attacks) during "Don't try to bluff you rich little snot!", the first hit of Normal Attacks, or a Powerful Attack.

Story Mode
He appears in the game's Story Mode as his Phantom Blood incarnation, stopping Joseph and Jotaro at the Cairo airport after the final battle with DIO, and serves as a core ally within the story. In his timeline, Speedwagon, Jonathan, and Zeppeli were traveling to Windknight's Lot. Due to interference by Funny Valentine, Speedwagon accidentally stumbles upon a Saint's corpse part. He explains to Jotaro, Joseph, Polnareff, and Kakyoin that the Saint's spirit told him to find Jonathan's descendants and their allies, and then to find the remaining corpse parts because a new threat is about to dominate the universe.
During his journey with Jotaro and their recruited allies, they reach Speedwagon's original timeline and discover that they are in the Joestar Mansion, which was supposed to have been destroyed during the night Dio turned into a vampire. Jonathan walks toward them with injuries he sustained from Dio's zombies and introduces himself to Jotaro. Once Diego Brando arrives, Speedwagon takes Jonathan's place while he's recovering and aids Jotaro to defeat the duo.
While visiting the timeline of Battle Tendency, the Old Joseph Joestar convinces his younger self that he is himself from the future by telling Speedwagon to come out of the turtle. Young Joseph recalls seeing a photo of the younger Speedwagon and is shocked to see him in person.
During the first confrontation against Heaven-Attained DIO, Speedwagon is the only ally shown among the protagonists, while the others are all inside Coco Jumbo.
In the credits, he is seen along with an alive Zeppeli during the final battle between Jonathan and Dio.
The enemy team's Dual Heat Gauge starts at 20% power.
