All-Star Battle R ★ Old Joseph Joestar
Old Joseph Joestar (老ジョセフ・ジョースター) was confirmed for All-Star Battle R during the game's initial announcement trailer.[1]
Although his moveset remains fundamentally the same as his from All-Star Battle, a few tweaks have been made to both balance the character and fit him into the overall gameplay changes that All-Star Battle R brought along.
Old Joseph's voice actor, Unsho Ishizuka reprises his role in this game, replacing Tomokazu Sugita. However, due to his passing in 2018, his voicelines were reused from Eyes of Heaven. Because of this, some of his voicelines from the original All-Star Battle are not present.
Gameplay
Old Joseph has 950 health and uses both the Stand (スタンド, Sutando) and Ripple (波紋, Hamon) Battle Styles, fighting foes with Hermit Purple. During a fight, he can use several different attacks that were featured in Stardust Crusaders.
