JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle will have character names changed for the west, Namco Bandai have shared with Siliconera.
Because JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure is heavily inspired by music, it’s always been a challenge to bring to the west in both game and manga form. Characters with names like Devo and Vanilla Ice are renamed things like D’bo and Iced during localization in order to skirt any sort of copyright issues. JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle is no exception.

New rumors regarding a possible JoJos Bizarre Adventure fighting game have emerged, and if they prove to be true, the game will have a huge roster.
oooooh man! I really hope this is true and it needs to be 2D.5 in the same way as DBFighterZ.
It would be cool if each character looked like their particular art style from the latest JoJo series.
Talent agency Aoni Production announced on its website on Tuesday that voice actor Kazunari Tanaka passed away on Monday due to a hemorrhage in his brain stem. He was 49.
Aside from anime, Tanaka has also voiced roles in games such as Persona 5 (Junya Kaneshiro) and JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle (Tamami Kobayashi).
R. I. P. sorry to hear that. I wonder if this Sony exclusive was some of his last work. I will enjoy it.
