Gameplay

Combat against enemies is done using "striker" medals, each of which represents one character and their ability set. Like some card battler games, players must take into account a medal's available health and special attacks as well as take advantage of combo systems that will chain stronger attacks together.
The Medal Strikers also posses a different color, each color has an advantage and a disadvantage (Red posses advantage over Green, Green over Blue and Blue over Red. Both Yellow and Black colors posses has an advantage and a disadvantage against each other).
In addition to battle segments, Stardust Shooters will include animated sequences and character models featuring the entire JoJo cast from all three parts.
