Eyes of Heaven

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Eyes of Heaven (ジョジョの奇妙な冒険 アイズオブヘブン) is a tag team fighting game based on the JoJo's Bizarre Adventure franchise, developed by CyberConnect2 and published by Namco Bandai Games exclusively for the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4.

The game features 52 playable characters (53 with first print bonus), ranging from Phantom Blood to JoJolion. It was announced in the January 15, 2015, issue of Famitsu and was presented at Jump Festa 2015.

The game was released in Japan on December 17, 2015 and will be released in Hong Kong in January 2016, Western territories in Summer 2016.

Gameplay
Eyes of Heaven is a fighting game described as Stylish Tag JoJo Action (スタイリッシュタッグジョジョアクション) set in large arenas based on locations in the manga. Players may pick a single character to control in a large environment, as well as a second character that may be controlled by either a CPU or second human player to fight the enemy team for a 2v2 battle. Certain match-ups contain special animations and dialogue between two characters, mostly between allies in the form of unique combination attacks such as the Dual Combos (デュアルコンボ) and Dual Heat Attacks (デュアルヒートアタック), though these provide no discernible bonuses or advantages in battle. The playstyle is similar to that of CyberConnect2's Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm series in which it relies on combo mechanisms and the air to air combos. Like in All Star Battle, characters are categorized by fighting Styles which dictates how each character plays in the game. The game allows for online play through the PlayStation Network system.

Storyline
The game features an original storyline supervised by Hirohiko Araki and centers around timeline and universal interference within the JoJo universe, as well as the Saint Corpse Parts.

Chapter 1: Stardust Crusaders
Begins with the final battle between Jotaro and DIO at the end of Part 3, as Jotaro defeats DIO as per the original storyline and burns his diary the following night. On their way back to Japan, Jotaro and Joseph are stopped by a young Robert E. O. Speedwagon at the airport shortly before Polnareff returns to them, claiming to have been attacked in the plane before takeoff. The three subsequently encounter the thought-to-be-deceased Avdol and Iggy, who meet the group with hostility, claiming they were sent by "him". They flee the airport to avoid endangering civilians and, after a battle on the rooftops of Cairo, the two assailants are incapacitated the two. Immediately afterwards, Jotaro, Polnareff, and Joseph are attacked by Kakyoin and N'Doul, who were also thought to have been dead. After they are both defeated, N'Doul manages to escape, but Speedwagon uses a part of the Saint Corpse he obtained beforehand to heal Kakyoin. Speedwagon explains that the Saint Corpse Part in his possession led him through time, in search of an unknown danger that is causing strange phenomena, like bringing people back from the dead, and thus supposedly slowly destroying the time-space continuum. Speedwagon then enlists the Crusaders' help in gathering the remaining eight parts of the Saint Corpse, just as the one in his possession resonates, indicating another part nearby. The part is found and kept by Jotaro, and Speedwagon guides the heroes through a "light rift", a dimensional crack from which light seeps out, where they travel to another time period to continue their search.

Chapter 2: Vento Aureo
A brief summary of the events of Vento Aureo is shown as Jotaro and Speedwagon appear at the Colosseum in 2001, where Mista, Trish, and Giorno reside having defeated Diavolo. After Mista and Trish suddenly disappear, Giorno is attacked by Buccellati, who was originally supposed to be dead. Buccellati is quickly fended off after Jotaro arrives at the scene and the two are then challenged by Narancia and Fugo. After their defeat, Fugo disappears, but Jotaro is able to heal Narancia using the life energy of his Saint Corpse part and brings him to their side. Jotaro and Giorno head to the Naples Station where they find Polnareff; Giorno feels like he knows Polnareff from somewhere but cannot remember. Buccellati appears once again with Vanilla Ice and after a brief bout, the two escape. Soon after Giorno finds and secures the third Saint Corpse Part, Trish and Mista, who had been trapped by Buccellati's Sticky Fingers when Giorno was not looking (thus explaining their dissapearance), appear with Narancia and they recognize who Polnareff is, claiming that he is "Polnareff the Turtle." Polnareff gets confused by this, so the group decides to it's best to pretend they don't know him due to the Polnareff they saw is his younger self and still never met them before, before heading to another age through the actual Polnareff turtle, who is revealed by Speedwagon to be another gateway, much like the light rifts. Unknown to the heroes, they are spied by a revived Diavolo, whose currently working for "that man" whom Diavolo pays his debt to "that man" on reviving him, so Diavolo finally got his chance to get his revenge for his lost against Giorno soon enough.

Chapter 3: Diamond is Unbreakable
Jotaro and Joseph arrive at Morioh Town in 1999. Joseph starts to remember the town, but quickly changes the subject and walks off when Jotaro asks him about it. Soon after, Josuke and Koichi find Jotaro, who asks them about strange happenings in town. As Koichi thinks about what to tell him, Okuyasu and Rohan appear and attack them for interfering with "his" plans, and Josuke and Koichi have no choice but to face them. After defeat, Okuyasu and Rohan try to escape, but Jotaro uses Star Platinum's time stop ability to stop them on their tracks and heal them with his part of the Saint Corpse. While Rohan is successfully healed, Okuyasu escapes and Josuke gives chase. Later, Jotaro finds Joseph and explains to him that they are ten years into their future, when Josuke appears, saying he trailed Okuyasu until he disappeared. After learning he is talking to a younger Jotaro, Josuke spots one of Harvest's beings and chases after it to gather them, having remembered that Shigechii died. One of them, howeer, escapes and returns to Shigechii who, joined by Akira Otoishi, confronts Josuke and Jotaro. After being defeated, Shigechii and Otoishi escape, and Jotaro asks Joseph to explain the situation to a very nervous Josuke. For obvious reasons, Joseph keeps trying to dodge it, until Jotaro forces him to do so, by having them enter the Polnareff turtle. Rohan and Koichi soon join Jotaro, when Yukako appears, under the influence of a strange phenomenon, ready to fight them. After being defeated, Yukako disappears like the rest. Unexpectedly, Enya shows up and sends her zombies to attack Jotaro, Rohan and Koichi. After the zombies are defeated, Enya extols "his" virtues and "his" power to "overwrite" and leaves. Jotaro then convinces Rohan and Koichi to help him search for the Saint Corpse Parts. As Josuke returns, Jotaro's Corpse part starts resonating, and the fourth Corpse part is given to Josuke for safekeeping. Joseph then reappears, showing a camera he found inside the turtle and, using Hermit Purple on it, a picture of a blue-skinned DIO is developed, to the Crusaders' shock, as they were assured of DIO's demise at Jotaro's hands.

Chapter 4: Phantom Blood
The heroes' next stop is inside the Joestar Mansion, in 19th century England. Jotaro and Speedwagon arrive to find a badly battered Jonathan, followed by this era's Dio, who commands his zombies to fight his opponents. Jonathan, helped by Jotaro, makes short work of them, and Dio, interested in Jotaro's Stand powers, decides to take matters into his own hands, joined by Diego. Despite the animosity between then, they decide to team up to eliminate Jonathan (whom Diego recognizes as Johnny's counterpart), but Speedwagon takes his friend's place to fight them with Jotaro. When Dio and Diego are defeated, they flee, swearing revenge. Speedwagon then tells Jotaro about the first strange phenomenon they sensed: just after finding out Dio was hiding in Windknights Lot, the Joestar Mansion, which had been burned to the ground, suddenly reappeared, infested with zombies: that was when Jonathan and Speedwagon found the first Saint Corpse Part, and Jonathan stayed behind to secure the mansion. Speedwagon wanted to help, but was forcibly sent to retrieve the rest of the Saint Corpse Parts. While a recovered Jonathan and Jotaro get acquainted, Mariah appears, shortly followed by Zeppeli, under the influence of the era's strange phenomenon. Jonathan sees no other choice than to fight his master, despite not being completely recovered. Still, he and Jotaro manage to defeat Zeppeli and Mariah, who escape. Speedwagon passes his Saint Corpse Part on to Jonathan, who then collapses due to exhaustion. Speedwagon brings him to the turtle so he can rest.

Chapter 5: Battle Tendency
Jotaro arrives at Air Supplena Island along with Joseph, who tells him about the island, and how they hope to get helpful information there. Upon seeing Caesar, along with his younger self, Joseph realizes they had gone back to 1938. Caesar and the young Joseph meet Jotaro and the old Joseph with some mistrust, when Lisa Lisa appears and attacks Caesar. Stroheim appears afterwards, under the influence of a strange phenomenon like Lisa Lisa, and tells Joseph that "his" power brought him back to life, more powerful than before. Joseph decides to fight them, along with a hesitating Caesar. After they are defeated, Stroheim flees, but Lisa Lisa, left barely conscious, is brought back to normal by Jotaro. As Caesar takes her inside to rest, the young Joseph, still not knowing he is talking to his older self, manages to sense his Hamon by touching his shoulder. The old Joseph is reluctant to tell his younger self they are one and the same, but Jotaro practically forces him to come clean. Joseph tells his younger self that they are travelling through time, and has Speedwagon come out to prove his point. As the young Joseph recovers from the shock of these revelations, Jotaro senses someone else coming: it is Hol Horse, who confronts Jotaro for the Saint Corpse Parts. He is, however, defeated, and after withholding information on "him" when asked by Jotaro, disappears like the others, before Caesar comes out, incensed. The younger Joseph tries to calm him down by making up a story about them being acquaintances of his when, suddenly, Esidisi, Wamuu and Kars appear, having trailed the Red Stone of Aja to an island next to Air Supplena and had made a stopgap. Wamuu asked to have his promised rematch with Joseph, but Kars instead sends vampires to attack the heroes. With the vampires defeated, Kars allows Wamuu to fight Joseph, and sends Esidisi along with him, so the young Joseph and Caesar fight them together. When they manage to prevail over the two Pillar Men, Kars decides to take matters into his hands and fight them on the others' stead, since their priority is still the Red Stone of Aja. Even though Kars has been defeated, the old Joseph recognizes that the power of their Hamon is still not enough to take out the Pillar Men, when Lisa Lisa, recovered, decides to fight off the Pillar Men. The young Joseph observes she hasn't completely recovered and would be defeated for sure, when the old Joseph tackles the situation by bluffing Kars with knowledge of the Red Stone of Aja. After a lenghty "team talk" in which the young Joseph nearly blurts out his older self's identity, the old Joseph convinces the Pillar Men to give Joseph and Caesar six days to prepare for their final battle. They leave, but not before Esidisi expresses his desire to test out the old Joseph's Hamon in battle. When Lisa Lisa asks for the old Joseph's identity, he convinces them all to enter the turtle's dimensional room so he can explain himself better. Left alone, Jotaro senses another Saint Corpse Part, and lets the young Joseph out so he can safeguard it.

Chapter 6: Stone Ocean
When Jotaro arrives, the first thing he notices is how the ground appears to be turned on its side: he is in the Cape Canaveral USAF Station after C-Moon used its powers to change the gravitational pull, in 2011. Looking further, he spots Jolyne and Emporio talking about Pucci's newfound powers and how she doesn't plan to get away from him when Jotaro approaches them. They are both relieved to see him alive and well, but Jolyne instantly realizes something's off when she sees her father looking about 20 years younger. Jotaro wonders about this, when they are approached by Ermes and Anasui, who are affected by this age's strange phenomenon, and so Jotaro joins Jolyne in fighting them. After the fight, Jotaro manages to heal both Ermes and Anasui with his Saint Corpse Part. When Anasui starts to get jealous of Jotaro, Jolyne ends up telling everyone he's her father, surprising even the teenage Jotaro. Not wanting to bother with explanations, he asks Joseph, who by this point is starting to get annoyed, to get Jolyne and her friends up to speed. Ermes, Anasui and Emporio follow Joseph into the turtle, but Jolyne stays behind long enough to spot a phenomenon-possessed Weather Report. Once he is defeated, he disappears, and Pucci comes out to confront Jotaro and Jolyne along with Pet Shop. Pucci explains that "his friend" has shown him a greater truth than the path to Heaven he once sought, and now he strives to achieve this truth; in order to do so, he must defeat Jotaro and Jolyne, body and soul. He, however, ends up defeated, but regardless explains that he has found the true path to heaven and intends to guide the people of the world to eternal bliss through this path, which he calls "Eyes of Heaven". As he and Pet Shop leave, Pucci warns Jotaro that once all Saint Corpse Parts are gathered, that is when "his friend" will draw open the curtains to Heaven. Jotaro is left to think about how Pucci could be the cause of the strange phenomena, and what the "truth" he mentioned could be, as his Saint Corpse Part starts resonating. The sixth Saint Corpse Part is found and entrusted to Jolyne. After taking a detour to 1999 Morioh to pick up a report of Rohan's notes on the phenomena, Jotaro finds himself unable to exit Morioh through the light rift. Speedwagon observes that the rift built a protective wall around itself, and only someone "qualified" can get through. At that moment, one of the Saint Corpse Parts resonates amongst all the JoJos assembled there, which is quickly revealed to be Josuke's, followed by Jonathan's, meaning they are the only ones who can cross the rift to the next era, while the rest stays at Morioh. Feeling a bit bothered, Jolyne decides to go for a walk, stopping at the Cafe Deux Magots, where she meets Daniel J. D'Arby, who tries to goad Jolyne into a wager. Seeing that she has seen through his loaded deck, he tries a game of heads and tails. D'Arby then appears to digress while talk about Jolyne's star birthmark, until he mentions "Eyes of Heaven" just as he tosses his coin, and it lands on tails, as he had called before. Jotaro arrives too late to warn Jolyne about D'Arby, as Osiris steals her soul immediately afterwards. Jotaro then finds out that D'Arby's coin is loaded, with tails on both faces. Determined not to be humiliated again, D'Arby challenges Jotaro to poker, with Jolyne's soul on the line; Jotaro ups the ante by wagering his own soul as well. As before, Jotaro manages to win by calling D'Arby's bluffs and eroding his composure, thus restoring Jolyne's soul to her. Before disappearing, D'Arby warns Jotaro that "his" power is not to be trifled with, but "he" will fight if confronted. Jotaro deduces that it has something to do with "overwriting the truth", having put together the hints that were dropped earlier by Enya and Pucci, and has a hunch of who could have such a power.

Chapter 7: Steel Ball Run
Jonathan finds himself alone in the 1890's U.S.A. of the alternate timeline. He looks around and sees Johnny, kneeling to the ground, next to a Saint Corpse Part. As Jonathan tries to approach him, Valentine appears before Johnny, apparently unharmed after taking the full power of Johnny's Golden Rotation. Valentine explains that someone interrupted their fight and it went unfinished, then turns his attention to Jonathan. He tells him to continue gathering the Corpse Parts, and warns him that, when all are gathered, the true battle will start, before vanishing. Johnny then notices the Corpse Part that was next to him is gone, while Jonathan uses his Hamon to heal Slow Dancer's wounded leg. He then asks Johnny about the Parts, showing his own, when Johnny, in despair, almost accuses Jonathan of being a thief, before straightening out his thoughts and allowing Jonathan to tell him about the quest for the Saint Corpse Parts and all that happened so far. Johnny accepts to help Jonathan because he, too, is searching for the Parts. They depart through the light rift to a village in the Rockies, where Johnny spots a prowling dinosaur (a villager transformed by Scary Monsters) and brings Jonathan into hiding with him. Johnny thinks it is weird, because he saw Diego dying at the New Jersey Railway. Jonathan tells Johnny that he had met Diego before, and Johnny deduces he is using the dinosaurs to look for the Saint Corpse Parts. They decide to leave to gather the Parts, when Diego appears and summons his dinosaurs to stop the Joestars. They, however, manage to defeat the creatures, and Dio joins Diego, warning that he will be the one to take out Jonathan, as is his fate, while Diego takes it upon himself to deal with Johnny. After they are defeated and leave, Valentine reappears, bringing along a phenomenon-possessed Gyro. Johnny refuses to believe this, as Valentine goads him into powering his Stand up to the fullest. Johnny and Jonathan manage to defeat Gyro and Valentine, and Johnny's attempts to get to Gyro are in vain, as he escapes, still influenced by the phenomenon. Valentine, then, praises Johnny's potential, but tells them about Giorno's power, which is expected to be on par with "his". After he leaves, Jonathan's Corpse Part resonates, indicating the presence of another Part, which is entrusted to Johnny, who laments the losses in his life. Jonathan sympathizes with him, then tries to cheer him up by saying that, with the Corpse Parts, they may be able to fight off the strange phenomena and save his friends.

Chapter 8: Jojolion
Josuke, in the meantime, is sent to the Morioh of the alternate timeline, only noticing Jonathan is not with him after taking in his surroundings. In the distance he spots Joshu and the alternate Josuke. Joshu is, as usual, whining how Josuke is always getting the best of him, until Josuke spots an abnormal purple energy swirling behind Joshu, and soon engulfing him. Knowing what that means, Josuke-Prime decides to act fast. As he attempts to explain the situation to Alt-Josuke, Joshu stands up, the corruption fueling his resentment; Josuke-Prime quickly joins Alt-Josuke to take on him, and they defeat him handily, despite their mutual lack of familiarity with Joshu's own Stand, Nut King Call. Josuke-Prime heals Joshu with his Saint Corpse Part, but knocks him down again when he starts to get confrontational, thinking he hasn't been healed. Alt-Josuke recognizes the Corpse Part, and Josuke-Prime fills him in on their quest. Having seen the Saint Corpse Part he had heard about, Alt-Josuke accepts to lend his help, as Josuke-Prime feels they are being watched. The one who was observing them reveals himself: it's Yoshikage Kira, joined by another Kira, this one impersonating Hayato Kawajiri. The combined power of both Josuke manages to bring both Kira down, and they disappear expressing their desire for a "peaceful life" and, as such, the Saint Corpse Parts do not matter to them. After they leave, Joshu wakes up, not remembering what happened, but shocked all the same. Then Josuke-Prime's Saint Corpse Part starts resonating, indicating another Part nearby, which is found and entrusted to Alt-Josuke. When Alt-Josuke accepts to join the quest for the Corpse Parts, Joshu also decides he wants to tag along.

Leone Abbacchio made it into beta testing, but there were difficulties in making Moody Blues viable in gameplay, particularly with how they planned on making it replay other characters' attacks. Ringo Roadagain, various denizens of Morioh, and others were also considered as characters.
