Jonathan Joestar/Games

A summary of Jonathan Joestar's history and movesets in video games.

Heritage for the Future (Arcade/PS1/DC)
Jonathan appears near the end of Heritage for the Future's intro in a montage of various manga panels from Phantom Blood and Stardust Crusaders, along with Speedwagon, Erina, and Dio. This small appearance marks Jonathan's first appearance in a video game.

GioGio's Bizarre Adventure (PS2)
Jonathan appears in the game's title screen demo cutscene along with Jotaro, Josuke, and Joseph, representing how Giorno inherited their "golden soul." Jonathan is mentioned in the game's prologue cutscene, and also makes an appearance as part of two manga panels representing the events of Phantom Blood in the same cutscene.

Jump Ultimate Stars (Nintendo DS)


Jonathan appears as a support and help character in the game. His 2 Koma support summons him, after which he headbutts his target and performs a combo on them. His 3 Koma support involves him tossing Ripple roses at the enemy, striking them with LUCK & PLUCK, and performing a Scarlet Overdrive on them. His help koma gives the character 1 SP bar more after being defeated.

He serves as an ally boost with DIO, mocking his classic line "It's useless!" and Mutou Kazuki (from Busou Renkin), by saying he feels the sun's power in Kazuki (since they need the sun's light in some of their attacks, Jonathan's Ripple and Kazuki's lance).
