Giorno Giovanna (ジョルノ・ジョバァーナ, Joruno Jobāna) was confirmed to return for All-Star Battle R during the game's initial announcement trailer.[1] He was also 1 of 15 playable characters during the Evo 2022 Demo on August 5.[3]
His moveset is fundamentally the same as his from All-Star Battle, with a few tweaks being made to both balance the character and fit him into the overall gameplay tweaks that All-Star Battle R brought.
In the English version of All-Star Battle R, Giorno's Stand, Gold Experience, is localized as "Golden Wind", carried on from its first official usage in All-Star Battle.
Giorno has 950 health and uses the Stand (スタンド, Sutando) Battle Style, fighting foes with Gold Experience. During a fight, he can use several different attacks that were featured in Vento Aureo.
Giorno moves forward while performing a two-hitting uppercut.

It's useless!

Resolve Mode (覚悟モード, Kakugo Mōdo)

Skills [Stand Off] (コマンド技)
Now, it lives.
+ //ON GROUND
Giorno brings one of his ladybug brooches to life as a small animal that attacks the opponent as a projectile. The resulting creature is dependent on the attack button inputted.
Light (): Giorno creates a flying fish that suddenly flies forward. (Flash Cancel comboable)
Medium (): Giorno creates a snake that slithers slowly across the ground, crumpling the opponent if they touch it. (Comboable)
Heavy (): Giorno creates a piranha that leaps in an upward arc. The opponent is stunned and left vulnerable if they touch it. This attack can function as an anti-air. (Comboable)
Attack type: High / Low / High (upwards arc) or Middle (downwards arc) Damage: 35 / 32 / 40
Life, spring forth...!
+ //ON GROUND
Giorno instantly sprouts a tree from underneath his feet, carrying him upwards off the ground. The size of the tree and thus Giorno's ascent increases in order. He can then remain in the tree briefly, jump off, attack, or chain into "This is our true path!". He is invulnerable while rising, making this skill function as a nonoffensive reversal that can assist in evasion and setting up attacks from above.
This is our true path!
+ //IN AIR OK
While in mid-air, Giorno summons Gold Experience to perform a downwards diving kick. If it connects with the opponent, Gold Experience delivers a barrage of stomps below, bouncing the opponent off the ground. If blocked, only the dive kick is performed. The damage increases in order, but so does vulnerability. This skill can be chained from "Life, spring forth!".
Attack type: Middle Damage: 62 / 76 / 90
It's useless
+ //ON GROUND
A counter. Giorno quickly transforms one of the ladybug brooches on his chest into a frog as he stands prepared for an attack. If hit by a non-projectile attack that is not a Throw/HHA/GHA, damage will be dealt to the opponent and they will be left in a vulnerable state as they crumple to the ground. The damage of this ability increases in order, but vulnerability does as well. (Comboable)
Attack type: Counter Damage: 80 / 100 / 120
Now this is a part of me!
+ for ½ HH ON GROUND
Expending half a bar of the Heart Heat Gauge, Giorno attempts to heal himself using one of his ladybug brooches to mend his wounds. While the health regained is considerable, this ability takes time to perform and can be interrupted. Upon success, the health begins as slowly-regenerating white health that disappears if Giorno is struck, meaning he must avoid damage for a time in order to properly recoup lost health.
The startup of all variants of this skill is much faster than it was in All-Star Battle. The variant of the skill now travels significantly farther. The variant of the skill's projectile travels slower now as a trade off for the significantly faster startup, though the distance covered by the projectile remains the same. The variant of the skill shoots its projectile at a steeper angle, giving it shorter range. Additionally, when flying upward, the projectile is now a High rather than a Middle.
This is our true path!
+ //IN AIR OK
All hits are now Middles instead of just the first one.
It's useless
+ //ON GROUND
When the counter is activated, the opponent is no longer sent flying into the stage wall. Instead, they crumple to the ground, leaving them vulnerable and meaning that this skill is now comboable. Additionally, the damage the skill deals is no longer dependent on what attack the opponent activates it with, instead increasing in order.
General Changes
Giorno's walk speed has been increased, though the animation speed remains the same, resulting in Giorno sliding across the floor a bit when walking now.
The opponent's defense is decreased. The opponent's attack power is increased.

Giorno Giovanna's Stand, able to give life to inanimate objects, turning them into animals or plants. It later becomes able to create organic matter, and eventually evolves into Golden Wind Requiem when it is pierced by the Arrow.
Those struck by these Arrows manifest Stand abilities. If they do not possess the necessary qualities, they die instead. The arrowheads are fashioned from fragments of a meteorite that hit the Earth tens of thousands of years ago.
Those hit by these Arrows may develop Stand abilities, or may be killed if they do not possess the right qualities. The arrowheads are fashioned from fragments of a meteorite that hit the Earth millions of years ago.
The Requiem created when Gold Experience was pierced by the Arrow. It has the supreme ability to return all action and will to zero. Even the fact of having died by the Stand's hand is returning to zero, preventing the victim from reaching the reality of death and condemning them to die endlessly.
The "Requiem" form of Golden Wind, with the supreme ability to nullify all movement and thought. Even the state of death at the Stand's hand is nullified, such that the victim never actually attains "death," just endless dying.

"WRYYYYYYYYYYY'" skill
Fixed bug where the Same Move Counter (IPS) was not properly working for the skill and certain instances of the skill would be counted as different skills, allowing for more than three in a combo.
This fix ensures that opponents will now be downed if the skill is used three times or more, regardless of the timing and version of the skill used.
"Can you escape destruction?" skill [Gold Experience Requiem]
Decreased speed of the projectile.
This makes it so the projectile is no longer guaranteed to hit if an aerial attack is blocked and this skill is used immediately after.
When the projectile hits the ground, it will now turn into a broach.
This is a visual change that has no effect on gameplay.
