JoJo: Golden Spirit — Josuke Higashikata Guide

Josuke Higashikata is a confirmed playable character in JoJo: Golden Spirit — one of the six headline JoJos shown in the official reveal. Here’s who he is and what’s confirmed so far.
⚠️ Pre-launch note: Josuke is confirmed, but his official rarity, fighting style, skills and stats aren’t public until the August 13 launch — and he isn’t part of the closed-beta 50 roster shown on the tier list. We add his full kit the moment it’s revealed.
Who is Josuke Higashikata?
Josuke is the protagonist of Part 4: Diamond is Unbreakable, a kind-hearted high-schooler with a towering pompadour and an easy grin. Push him too far, though, and that calm cracks in an instant — insult his hair and he absolutely snaps. He’s fiercely loyal to his friends and the self-appointed protector of his home town, Morioh.
Stand: Crazy Diamond
Josuke wields Crazy Diamond, a powerful close-range fighter that trades blows with a flurry of “dora dora dora” punches. Its signature power is the ability to restore things to a previous state — mending wounds and repairing broken objects as if the damage never happened. Famously, it can heal anyone except Josuke himself.
Josuke in Golden Spirit
- Status: confirmed playable (featured in the official reveal)
- Part: 4 (Diamond is Unbreakable)
- Rarity & fighting style: not yet officially listed
- Kit & stats: pending — confirmed at the August 13 launch
As a fan-favourite protagonist, Josuke is a natural centrepiece for a team — but Golden Spirit is a team-based auto-battler where formation balance matters more than any single unit. We’ll confirm his exact role the moment it’s public.
Should you aim for Josuke?
Expect Josuke to be a highly sought-after pull. Plan ahead with the reroll guide and stack your free summons before launch — then check the tier list once his official listing appears.
