Jump Force is the highly anticipated upcoming fighter mashup game that re-imagines some of the biggest names in anime and manga within the real world. Fans all over the world of franchises like Death Note, Dragon Ball, Yu-Gi-Oh and more are pumped now that the closed beta has begun, including rapper Soulja Boy.

The singer took to his Twitter to share the closed beta times that kicked off on the 12th with Session 3 having just wrapped up. It's not that surprising that he'd be excited, he's made no secret of the fact that he has a total nerdy side to him with his love of games and his insatiable love for Pokemon. He's even released his own game inspired by his "haters" called Beef With Soulja, which he announced back in 2017.

We still don't have a release date for the ultimate anime and manga mashup but we do know it is coming next year for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
