JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Steel Ball Run reportedly getting a video game adaptation

JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure is a highly popular manga series, with parts 1 through 6 all receiving anime adaptations. That said, despite no official word on Part 7 – Steel Ball Run – getting an animated adaptation, the no.2 highest rated manga of all time is rumoured to be getting its own video game.

As reported by known anime leaker AniTsumi via Twitter, “It seems like they're planning a huge release for Jojo's Part 7” with the much loved entry said to be getting “an Official Announcement & Trailer for the Anime in 2025/2026!”

Perhaps even more exciting however is the fact that “There's a videogame in development right now too.”

While there have been plenty of JoJo video games over the decades, very few of them directly relate to a specific Part of the manga/anime – instead typically being an amalgamation of all the different parts, telling a unique story.

Given the love surrounding Steel Ball Run, it makes sense that JoJo publisher ‘Shueisha’ would want a dedicated game focused on Part 7 in particular. Hopefully an official announcement comes sooner than that of the Anime.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
