Shadow Dio is an alternative version of DIO from before the final showdown in Cairo. He is one of the six hidden characters in the game.
Shadow Dio, unlike the regular version of DIO, is a Passive Stand character which relies heavily on his fast movement. He is a rushdown focused character with massive damage output and simple combos, however, his main weakness is the lack of defensive options. Shadow Dio is considered to be one of the biggest glass cannons in the game.
