Today, Bandai Namco released the first and official trailer of Seto Kaiba, Jump Force’s first DLC character that is coming in May. Unfortunately, the trailer is pretty short — just 20 seconds — but it does offer a nice glimpse at the Yu-Gi-Oh! character in action against Yami on the Golden Gate Bridge using his signature cards: Blue-Eyes White Dragon and the Egyptian god, Obelisk the Tormentor.

As you may remember, Kaiba was first announced earlier this month, but up until this point we’ve only seen the Blue-Eyes master in the game via screenshots. There’s still no word when Kaiba will be releasing specifically, but it will be sometime in May alongside two unannounced fighters.
Kaiba is the first of many DLC characters, all of which are included in the Fighters Pass, or can be purchased as stand-alone fighters. In addition to new DLC characters, there will also be numerous free updates. Bandai Namco outlines it all via the following post-launch content roadmap:

Jump Force is available for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. At the moment of publishing, there’s been no word of a Nintendo Switch port, however, Bandai Namco is known to bring some of its games to the Switch after their initial release, so there’s a chance Jump Force will do the same at some point. While the game struggled critically, it has sold pretty well, making the chances of a port even greater.
