RequiemCraft — A JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure Experience

About RequiemCraft

RequiemCraft is a Minecraft mod inspired by Hirohiko Araki’s manga/anime series, JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure. The series follows generations of the Joestar family through unusual adventures, supernatural encounters, and battles shaped by extraordinary powers.

Our goal is to recreate the world of JoJo as faithfully as possible while making it feel at home in Minecraft. Development currently focuses on Stands, their combat, progression, and interactions with the world. Over time, we also plan to expand into locations, techniques, items, of every parts of the franchise.

RequiemCraft is still in development, with more content planned for future updates.

STAND ARROW

Your journey begins with a meteorite. As you explore the world, you can find meteorites containing Stand ore at their center. Collect the ore with a diamond pickaxe or better, then smelt the Raw Stand Ore into a Stand Ore Ingot.

Use that ingot to craft a Stand Arrow, following the same vertical arrangement as a regular arrow: the ingot at the top, a stick in the middle, and a feather at the bottom.

Hold the arrow and right-click to use it while you do not already have a Stand. Once its activation finishes, you receive a random Stand from the available pool. Using an arrow injures you, so begin with plenty of health.

There are currently two obtainable Stands, with more planned for future updates. Your new Stand begins with its own progression, and you unlock more of what it can do as you play.

REMOVAL DISC

Want to try a different Stand, keep your current one for later, or pass it to another player? Craft a Stand Removal Disc to extract it.

Place redstone in the center of a crafting table and surround it with four iron ingots in a cross: one above, one below, one to the left, and one to the right. Leave the corners empty.

Hold the disc and right-click while you have a Stand. The empty removal disc becomes a disc containing that Stand, and your character is left without one.

The extracted disc preserves its unlocked abilities, progression, and selected appearance. Keep it for later or give it to another player. A player without a Stand can use the stored disc to restore what was saved; starting again with a new arrow instead gives a fresh Stand progression.

STANDS

Part 3: Stardust Crusaders

Star Platinum

A powerful close-range Stand that combines strength with mobility. Its combat allows you to chain strikes into combos, while its movement options help you reposition during fights and reach new places while exploring. Learn its rhythm and discover the rest of its potential in-game.

The World

A powerful close-range Stand built around strong attacks, sustained pressure, and mobility. Chain your attacks, find openings, and reposition to keep control of a fight. Its full potential is something to uncover as you progress and experiment with its combat.

BOSSES

Part 3: Stardust Crusaders

DIO

A boss you can encounter while exploring the world. Approach him prepared:, he is a dangerous opponent who can put your Stand and your combat skills to the test.

DIO currently has no item drops. His role is planned to expand in future updates, and fans of the manga and anime may already have an idea of what that could mean.

ITEMS

The current public version includes the Stand Arrow, Stand Removal Disc, Star Platinum’s Disc, The World’s Disc, Raw Stand Ore, Stand Ore Ingots, Knives, Knife Bundles, and the RequiemCraft Guide.

Some items begin your journey, others let you preserve what you have learned or give you more ways to approach a fight. The in-game guide explains the basics and shows your current control bindings.

Required dependencies: Fabric API and GeckoLib

You receive an in-game guide when you first join a world with the mod installed. If you lose it, craft another with a book and paper.
