    Set in a world that brings together many of the long-running titles that had appeared in the magazine, both of the past and present at the time of its release.  The game consists of a main character wandering and encountering the many ''Jump'' heroes as they try to save the world from an alliance of many of the most powerful and evil of the ''Jump'' villains.

    One of the main objects of the game is to gather a selection of 16 notable ''Jump'' hero characters in order to use them to fight against the enemies in this world.  The Jump characters that can be collected are:
    * [[Kaioh]] - The boss of Area 1. The player will fight him as Kenshirō in a one-on-one fighting game-style battle.
     
    * [[Raoh]] - One of the thirteen rivals who will challenge the player's party during the RPG-like final battle. Raoh is the penultimate enemy in the game, next to [[w:c:dragonball:Piccolo|Ma Junior]] (the reincarnated Piccolo).
