Josuke appears as a support and help character. In his 2-Koma support, Josuke uses Crazy Diamond to heal the character that it punches and in his 3-Koma support he uses his Stand to rapidly punch the opponent as Crazy Diamond cries out "''DORARARA!''". His help Koma makes the duration of negative status effects (such as poison, blinding and burning) shorter. He has an ally boost with Jotaro.

'''Josuke Higashikata''' makes his playable debut in ''[[All-Star Battle]]'', and was confirmed along with [[Okuyasu]], [[Jolyne]] and [[Ermes]].
 
As one of the mass majority of playable characters in the game with the '''Stand''' Style, Josuke can turn [[Crazy Diamond]] on/off, changing movesets, as well as having access to the '''Stand Rush''' ability returning from [[Heritage for the Future]], being able to attack in conjunction with his Stand. Josuke has 1000 HP.

===Command List===
During a fight, Josuke can use several different attacks that were featured in ''Diamond is Unbreakable''.
 
{{Movelist|name=Style/Specials/Etc|Color=DU|Color2=DU2|
|head1=Stand On/Off
|move1={{ASBInput|S}} {{Input|on ground}}
|desc1=Josuke can summon or dismiss Crazy Diamond, shifting his available abilities.
|head2='''Get closer and pull 300&nbsp;km/h!'''
|move2={{ASBInput|6}} + {{ASBInput|H}} {{Input|on ground}}(Stand Off only)
|desc2=Josuke turns to the side as Crazy Diamond's fists suddenly appear from behind him, rapidly striking the opponent. A command normal that can chain into any of Josuke's skills.
|head3='''Watch your mouth!'''
|move3={{ASBInput|2}}x2 + {{ASBInput|P}} {{Input|on ground}}(Stand Off only)
|desc3=A special ability that requires a stock of the Heart Heat Gauge to activate. It will first initiate as a counter: Josuke will briefly adjust his pompadour, and if the opponent hits him during that moment, they will stop to insult his hair, temporarily sending Josuke into a blind rage as his hair spikes upward. The Heart Heat required is not consumed until the counter actually succeeds, allowing Josuke to attempt it repeatedly.
 
In this enraged state, all of Josuke's attacks have increased speed and damage, and deal much greater damage to the opponent's Guard Gauge. He is able to chain any of his normal attacks together indefinitely with Easy Beat disabled, including chaining the same normals repeatedly; He is limited only by the game's innate anti-infinite system with a cap on the amount of times the opponent can be hit by a given attack before falling out of the combo. Josuke gains super armor at all times, powering through any incoming attacks that don't result in a hard knockdown or aren't Throws, HHA, or GHA.<br>The skill "He heals pretty quickly!" is directly enhanced in this mode as well.
 
However, Josuke will forcibly and constantly walk towards the opponent, unable to crouch, run, move backwards, stop moving, or guard; Josuke has no means of defending himself against the opponent's attacks, up to and including their HHA or GHA, aside from Sidestepping.
 
If Josuke executes his HHA or GHA while enraged, his hair will continue to stand during the whole animation.
|head4='''I'm not done kicking your ass!'''
|move4={{ASBInput|3}} + {{ASBInput|M}} {{Input|on ground|when downed}} (While "Watch your mouth! is active)
|desc4=A skill exclusive to Josuke's "Watch your mouth!" enraged state that can only be used while the opponent is down. Crazy Diamond grabs the opponent and forces them back onto their feet while leaving them staggered, allowing Josuke to continue his combo even after the opponent has hit the ground.
|head5='''Dora!'''
|move5={{ASBInput|3}} + {{ASBInput|H}} {{Input|on ground}}(Stand On only)
|desc5=Josuke and Crazy Diamond slide across the ground a short distance before Crazy Diamond kicks upwards, hitting high instead of low, and knocking them in the air.
}}
 
==Miscellaneous Games==
===[[Cult Jump]] (GB)===
Josuke appears as one of the ten characters from the ''JoJo's Bizarre Adventure'' franchise to appear in the game ''Cult Jump''.
 
===[[GioGio's Bizarre Adventure]] (PS2)===
Josuke makes a brief appearance in the game's introduction as an image behind Giorno (along with ''Part 4'' Jotaro, ''Part 3'' Joseph, and Jonathan), appearing as Koichi remarks that Giorno has a kindness similar to those of the Joestar bloodline.
 
===[[Jump Ultimate Stars]] (DS)===
{{Movelist|name=Special Moves (Stand Off)|Color=DU|Color2=DU2|
</noinclude>
|head1='''I'm a real Deadeye Dick!'''
[[File:Jump Ultimate Stars Josuke & Crazy Diamond.png]]
|move1={{ASBInput|2}}{{ASBInput|1}}{{ASBInput|4}} + {{ASBInput|L}}/{{ASBInput|M}}/{{ASBInput|H}} {{Input|on ground}}
|desc1= Josuke summons Crazy Diamond to forcefully flick a fast projectile forward. The projectile and its properties are determined by the button inputted. (Flash Cancel comboable)
*'''Light''' ({{ASBInput|L}}): Crazy Diamond launches a ball bearing that curves upward as mid-ranged anti-air projectile.
*'''Medium''' ({{ASBInput|M}}): Crazy Diamond launches a ball bearing that flies a little further before curving upward, extending its horizontal reach.
*'''Heavy''' ({{ASBInput|H}}): Crazy Diamond launches a rifle bullet that flies at high speeds straight forward.
|head2='''Break through and beat you up!'''
|move2={{ASBInput|2}}{{ASBInput|3}}{{ASBInput|6}} + {{ASBInput|L}}/{{ASBInput|M}}/{{ASBInput|H}} {{Input|on ground}}
|desc2=Josuke braces himself with his arms as he lunges forward a distance, then summons Crazy Diamond to deliver a punch barrage. This ability can initiate Rush Mode. The attack button inputted determines the last strike:
* '''Light''' ({{ASBInput|L}}): Crazy Diamond finishes with a high-hitting straight punch, knocking the opponent away.
* '''Medium''' ({{ASBInput|M}}): Crazy Diamond finishes with an overhead punch in a middle attack that cannot be blocked crouching, staggering the opponent. (Flash Cancel comboable)
* '''Heavy''' ({{ASBInput|H}}): Crazy Diamond finishes with a punch that sweeps the opponent's feet in a low attack that cannot be blocked standing, knocking them down.
 
Josuke appears as a support and help character. In his 2-Koma support, Josuke uses Crazy Diamond to heal the character that it punches and in his 3-Koma support he uses his Stand to rapidly punch the opponent as Crazy Diamond cries out "''DORARARA!''". His help Koma makes the duration of negative status effects (such as poison, blinding and burning) shorter. He has an ally boost with Jotaro.
Despite Josuke bracing himself, this skill does not actually carry any defensive property like super armor or guard-point.
|head3='''DORA!'''
|move3={{ASBInput|2}} x 2 + {{ASBInput|L}}/{{ASBInput|M}}/{{ASBInput|H}} {{Input|on ground|when downed}}
|desc3=Josuke summons Crazy Diamond to rapidly punch downward and dig up the ground, leaving a small, visible spot of excavated earth. The punches themselves can knock the opponent down, and also hit them if they're already down. If used again while the dug-up spot is still active, it will disappear and be replaced. This skill has a follow-up. (Flash Cancel comboable)
|head4='''As you were!'''
|move4=(After "DORA!") {{ASBInput|6}}{{ASBInput|2}}{{ASBInput|3}} + {{ASBInput|L}}/{{ASBInput|M}}/{{ASBInput|H}} {{Input|on ground}}
|desc4=Using a piece of rubble taken from the floor, Josuke quickly pulls himself back to the point where "DORA!" was last performed by restoring the piece. This skill can be used from anywhere on the stage, and Josuke is fully invulnerable while moving. This makes it excellent for positional purposes such as evasion, closing the distance, or getting Josuke away from the stage boundary or an opponent pressuring him.
}}
 
{{Movelist|name=Special Moves (Stand On)|Color=DU|Color2=DU2|
|head1='''DORARARARARARARA!'''
|move1={{ASBInput|6}}{{ASBInput|2}}{{ASBInput|3}} + {{ASBInput|L}}/{{ASBInput|M}}/{{ASBInput|H}} {{Input|on ground}}
|desc1=Crazy Diamond unleashes a barrage of punches at an upward angle, knocking the opponent into the air. The attack functions as an anti-air, and can initiate Rush Mode. This is a Stand Rush skill that Josuke can disconnect from to attack the opponent while it is executing. (Flash Cancel comboable)
|head2='''Rockabye baby!'''
|move2={{ASBInput|2}}{{ASBInput|3}}{{ASBInput|6}} + {{ASBInput|L}}/{{ASBInput|M}}/{{ASBInput|H}} {{Input|on ground}}
|desc2=Crazy Diamond quickly flies forward a moderate distance and delivers a strong hook. If the attack connects, the Stand will pummel the opponent before punching them in the face to send them flying.
|head3='''He heals pretty quickly!'''
|move3={{ASBInput|2}}{{ASBInput|1}}{{ASBInput|4}} + {{ASBInput|L}}/{{ASBInput|M}}/{{ASBInput|H}} {{Input|on ground|trap}}
|desc3= Crazy Diamond breaks up the ground in a single punch before reforming it into a floating shield-like barrier that lingers for a period of time. The barrier can stop non-HHA/GHA projectiles and damages the opponent on-contact. It will also shatter harmlessly if Josuke or Crazy Diamond touch it directly. This is a Stand Rush skill that Josuke can disconnect from to attack the opponent while it is executing. (Flash Cancel comboable)
<br>If Josuke is in his "Watch your mouth!" enraged state, barriers produced evolve from floating shield-like structures to completely vertical, tall walls.

{{Movelist|name=Throw|Color=DU|Color2=DU2|
|head1='''Guess I wasn't mad enough'''
|move1=2 ATK buttons at close range or {{ASBInput|T}} {{Input|on ground}}
|desc1=Josuke angrily lifts the opponent up by their collar, before Crazy Diamond appears to punch them in the face and send them flying.
}}
 
{{Movelist|name=Heart Heat Attack / Great Heat Attack|Color=DU|Color2=DU2|
|head1='''You're in my range!'''
|move1={{ASBInput|2}}{{ASBInput|3}}{{ASBInput|6}} + 2 ATK Buttons {{Input|on ground}}
|desc1=Josuke, acknowledging his maximum range, sends Crazy Diamond a moderate distance forward to throw a heavy straight punch. If it connects, Crazy Diamond will unleash a barrage of punches on the opponent, ending with an overhead smash followed by an uppercut that sends them flying.
|head2='''Meet my homing missile!'''
|move2=(During "You're in my range!") {{ASBInput|2}}{{ASBInput|3}}{{ASBInput|6}} + 2 ATK Buttons {{Input|on ground}}
|desc2=By spending an extra half of a bar of his Heart Heat Gauge, Josuke can add a supplementary attack to his HHA.<br>Instead of delivering the last two punches, Crazy Diamond flies backward and forcefully flicks a shard of broken glass at the opponent that boomerangs back through them using the Stand's ability and their blood, knocking them back towards Josuke. This makes the HHA deal more damage, and leaves the opponent close to Josuke instead of knocking them away; a more advantageous situation for him.
|head3='''You're already fixed!'''
|move3={{ASBInput|2}}{{ASBInput|3}}{{ASBInput|6}} + 3 ATK Buttons, or {{ASBInput|G}} {{Input|on ground}}
|desc3=Josuke commands Crazy Diamond to deliver a heavy overhand punch moving forward. If it connects, the opponent is knocked back and onto the floor while Josuke swaggers over to them. As the opponent gets up, Josuke tells them that he's already healed them in order to "make it fair", with their health completely restored to full (this is purely visually cosmetic). While the opponent is left confused and distracted, he sends Crazy Diamond to unleash an extremely powerful "''DORARARA!''" barrage, slowly bringing them high into the air. It then reels back and sends them flying with a final uppercut that brings them back down to their ''true'' health plus the GHA damage taken (similar to how he defeated [[Yuya Fungami]]). If facing against [[Johnny Joestar]], Josuke temporarily heals Johnny's paraplegia, before the attack debilitates him once again.<br> A quirk exists where the false health removed is also counted in the Practice Mode's damage trackers, resulting in a vastly larger value of damage being shown dealt by the GHA (proportional to how low the opponent's health was when they were hit by it) and misrepresenting the actual damage of the GHA and any combo that ends with it.
}}
 
Josuke also possesses alternate costumes, most of which are taken from the artbooks such as JOJO-A-GOGO and JOJO 6251. Besides the entire cast from ''Part 4'', Josuke also possesses special dialogues before a match against Jotaro and Old Joseph (in both cases he asks both if it is really them, since Josuke recognizes them but notices that they look much younger, while ''Part 3'' Jotaro and Joseph don't recognize Josuke).
 
====Gameplay Overview====
Josuke is a well-balanced character with an assortment of great abilities. Using good normal attacks, a multipurpose barrier, different forms of projectiles, and melee attacks that strike from mid-range, he is very effective at playing defensively and in neutral. This also includes multiple anti-air attacks and said barrier to discourage jumping from his opponent, as well as a skill that both strikes a downed opponent and sets up a very valuable escape and retreating option. Josuke also does not need to exert much effort to inflict effective combo damage, making his output reliable. When enraged, he becomes a true rushdown character, rapidly chaining attacks together and breaking his foe's guard with immense ease to deliver devastating damage and extended combos.
 
Despite his utility, Josuke's ability to approach is weaker than most. Many of his forward-moving attacks have lengthy recovery and leave him vulnerable if they do not connect, forcing him to have to follow behind his projectiles or barrier to close the distance on the opponent if they intend to keep him at range. His enraged state carries a massive vulnerability in not being able to run or guard, leaving him highly susceptible to raw Heat Attacks with limited evasive options and otherwise forcing him to travel at a slow speed. As a result, Josuke must exert constant close-ranged pressure to reap the benefits of the skill lest he.
 
Josuke is an overall reliable and easy-to-understand fighter, boasting an exceptional neutral game, control over the airspace, and powerful yet lenient combos. Though he struggles with closing the distance, he will more often than not force the opponent into his own effective range where his offensive pressure and utilitarian capabilities allow him to prevail.
 
====Trivia====
 
*During [[Baoh]]'s hair taunt against Josuke, the narrator explains that Baoh does not trust Josuke from the way his hair smells, referencing Baoh's ability to distinguish friend from foe via their scent.
 
====="Watch your mouth!" comments=====
When triggering Josuke's "Watch your mouth!" ability, characters have unique lines that all pertain to insulting, mocking, or unwittingly offending Josuke and his hair. They will use the same "taunting eyes" pop-up also used by [[Joseph Joestar|Joseph]]'s "Your next line is...". Josuke will then reply with {{nihongo|"What the hell did you say about my hair!"|今おれのこの頭のことなんつった！|Ima ore no kono atama no kotona ntsutta!}} while entering his enraged state.

=Eyes of Heaven=
==[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Eyes of Heaven|Eyes of Heaven (PS3/PS4)]]==
[[File:Josuke jojoeoh png.png|frameless|right]]
Josuke was one of the first confirmed characters for the game (alongside ''[[Battle Tendency|Part 2]]'' [[Joseph]], [[Caesar]], [[Stroheim]], [[Jotaro]], [[Kakyoin]], and [[Diego]]).
 
Since most of the game's animation, effects and attacks were reused from ''All-Star Battle'', Josuke's repertoire of abilities remains mostly the same, though with some new additions to aid him in battle.
 
As a Stand User, Josuke is one of many characters with wildly varied abilities that grant him uniqueness in battle.
 
*'''Style Action - Crazy Diamond''': Josuke summons Crazy Diamond to deliver a punch that is able to generate a number of different effects.
**Under normal circumstances, Crazy Diamond's punch hits the ground to dig it up, reforming it into a floating barrier that can block projectiles and absorb sufficient damage before breaking, while also leaving a small, visible spot of excavated earth that Josuke can return to via "As you were!"
**If Crazy Diamond's punch hits an opponent, the barrier forms around them, trapping them inside and paralyzing them. This leaves them vulnerable to more attacks. Quickly moving the movement stick around can shorten the time bound. This will also leave the spot of dug-up earth.
**If Crazy Diamond's punch hits Josuke's partner, they will recover a small amount of health. No barrier or "As you were!" spot is created.
*'''Trait - I'll heal you, no problem.''': While standing near the spot of a broken stage object, Crazy Diamond can repair it and have it available again immediately, with no limit to the number of times this can be done.
*'''As you were!''': If the excavated spot of earth created by his Style Action is present, Josuke, using a piece of rubble he took from the floor, quickly flies toward the spot by fixing the piece. This move can be used from anywhere on the stage, and is excellent for evasion or covering large distances. If the floating barrier is present, Josuke will restore its durability to maximum upon reaching his destination. If there is any obstacle such as a wall in his path, Josuke will immediately stop, canceling the ability.
*'''You're in my range...''': Crazy Diamond flies forward and punches. If it connects with an opponent, Crazy Diamond will unleash a barrage of 24 punches, sending them flying on the final hit.
*'''DORA!!''': Crazy Diamond performs a chop that sends a vertical "wave" of blood a short distance forward as a projectile. If the blood hits an opponent, even if they block it, they will take a small amount of damage and become '''Bloody''' for a short period of time, and susceptible to a follow-up. Of note is that Josuke cannot perform this skill again on a different target if one of the opponents is actively Bloody.
**'''Meet my homing missile!''': Crazy Diamond flicks a shard of broken glass that targets the Bloody opponent with very strong homing capabilities, dealing substantial damage and leaving them crumpling and open to further attack. Even if it is blocked, the broken glass will erratically boomerang back through its target multiple times, dealing immense damage to their guard. This skill has a separate, longer cooldown than "DORA!!".
*'''I'll just have to pummel you from here!'''/'''I'm a real Deadeye Dick!''': The attack unleashed is dependent on whether or not the activating button is held. If pressed, Crazy Diamond flicks two ball bearings forward as projectiles, with their trajectories diverging and accuracy weakening the farther they travel. If held, Crazy Diamond flicks a rifle bullet as a projectile with high speed and accuracy, but extends the skill's cooldown.
*'''EX - You're in my range...''': Josuke is invincible to projectiles for the duration of the attack.
*'''EX - I'm a real Deadeye Dick!''': The rifle bullet is immediately ready and gains a damage boost, and Josuke is invincible to projectiles for the duration of the attack.
*'''Trait - Watch your mouth''': When Josuke's health drops below 20% (or a little below his last health gauge), he will begin to fix his pompadour while the opponent that last hit him will stop to insult it, temporarily sending him into a blind rage as his hair spikes upward. Josuke's damage receives an incredible boost, his Homing Dash speed is increased, he gains super armor (or unflinching to enemy attacks short of grabs and DHA), and unlimited stamina for a short period of time. In exchange, he takes more damage, cannot guard, and his Homing Dash loses its homing capabilities.
 
====JoJolities====
 
*'''DORARA!!''': Josuke must use his Style Action 3 times. (200 Points)
*'''As you were!''': Josuke must use "As you were!" 3 times. (200 Points)
*'''Meet my homing missile!''': Josuke must connect "Meet my homing missile!" 3 times. (300 Points)
*'''I'm not done kicking your ass!''': Josuke must achieve a collective hit count of 300. (500 Points)
*'''This feels awesome!''': Josuke must Retire an opponent with a Dual Heat Attack. (800 Points)
 
====Dual Heat Attacks====
 
*'''Solo - I went ahead and healed your sorry ass...''': Identical to its performance in ''All-Star Battle'', though executes faster for the sake of brevity.
*'''With Okuyasu - Hey, are we gonna do this, or what?''': Okuyasu has The Hand bring their opponent closer by eliminating a wide space in front of them, leaving them staggered. After Josuke and Okuyasu briefly and excitedly share comments, Crazy Diamond and The Hand pummel their target with a dual Stand barrage followed by a joint uppercut that sends them high into the air.
*'''With Koichi - Dorara Rush ×2''': Koichi has Echoes ACT2 place SFX of Crazy Diamond's [[Stand Cry]] ("''DORARARA!!''") directly under the opponent's feet. He then prompts Josuke to attack, watching as he jumps high into the air until he is directly above the opponent. Crazy Diamond then punches the opponent from above as the SFX activates, creating artificially-made fists to attack from below, hitting them from both sides.
*'''With Rohan - I really hate this guy...''': Rohan uses Heaven's Door to write within the opponent "My body will fly forwards at 70 km/hr." as he begins to tell Josuke something; revealing soon after that he hates him. The opponent is sent flying at Josuke in an attempt to cause a collision, forcing him to use Crazy Diamond to pummel them away.
*'''With Old Joseph - Gotta be cool, at my age.''': Josuke & Crazy Diamond pummel the target, with the final punch sending them high into the air. Old Joseph then comes from behind Josuke and uses [[Hermit Purple]] to bind the airborne opponent. Yanking on his Stand and pulling them in, Old Joseph then charges and delivers a forceful Ripple-infused downward chop to blast the target away once more, leaving Josuke impressed.
 
He temporarily serves as the main protagonist of the story, along with Jonathan when the story enters the ''Steel Ball Run'' universe. He encounters his [[Josuke Higashikata (JoJolion)|counterpart]] and fight a corrupted Joshu. After defeating Joshu, he is attacked by Yoshikage Kira and his Kosaku Kawajiri counterpart.
 
===[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Eyes of Heaven Tournament|Tournament]]===
He is paired with [[Johnny Joestar]] in the ''Eyes of Heaven'' Tournament but was eliminated in the preliminaries by Old Joseph and Kira.
 
===Relationships in Eyes of Heaven===
<sup>(The information below derives from a Video Game not written by Araki. As such, it may not be considered canon.)</sup>
 
*[[Giorno Giovanna]]: Giorno steals Josuke's wallet, causing Josuke to tremble with anger upon discovering it's been stolen. Giorno notices that it "only has 12 yen," a reference to the [["Shigechi's" Harvest (story arc)|"Shigechi's Harvest"]] arc. After a match between the two, Giorno notes that his Stand [[Gold Experience#Flesh and Organ Creation|ability]] and [[Crazy Diamond#Restoration|Josuke's]] are similar. When paired together, the two consider themselves a great tag team and note it is like they can read each other's moves.
*[[Jolyne Cujoh]]: Josuke is surprised Jolyne is Jotaro's daughter. The two mock each other because they both look like delinquents.
 
===Insults for Josuke's Hair===
This is a list of the various insults each character gives to Josuke's hair in ''Eyes of Heaven''. Upon having his hair insulted, Josuke will reply with {{nihongo|"I won't forgive you for insulting it!"|けなすやつあゆるさねえ～～～|Kenasu yatsu a yurasane<nowiki>~~~</nowiki>}}. Note that characters not listed here reuses their quotes from ''All-Star Battle'' (in Part 4 Jotaro's case, he reuses his Part 3 self's line from ''ASB''), though they are re-recorded with their respective, new voice actors in cases of the Part 3 cast (except DIO) and Pucci. Japanese translations taken from [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vryhTGJzNVk here], except unused voice clips.
